Glee star Lea Michele set to replace Vanessa Hudgens as Candie's rep

Glee beauty Lea Michele will reportedly show off her sexy dancer's legs as the new rep for Candie's fashion brand.

"Lea's fans are the same as Candie's fans," a Candie's source told E! News.

Michele, 25, would replace actress Vanessa Hudgens and follow in a long line of popular Candie's reps, including Britney Spears, Ashlee Simpson, Fergie and Jenny McCarthy.

Vegan Diet, Dancing, Yoga & Strength Training

The 5'2" Lea is a vegan who does yoga, runs, dances, hikes and strength-trains to maintain her fit size 2 physique.

Michele received intense pressure from Hollywood agents to get a nose job early in her career but decided to stick to her guns.

"When I was 15, my mother and I went to meet a manager who said, 'You have to get a nose job in order for me to work with you,' " Michele recounted.

"My mother would say to me, 'Barbra Streisand never got a nose job. You're not getting a nose job.' And this was before I really even knew who Barbra was. I just knew that she was, like, the messiah for girls like me."

I Was Constantly Told I Wasn't Pretty Enough

Lea, who was one of the few girls in her high school circle not to get rhinoplasty, says success has made her feel beautiful.

"Glee has made me feel beautiful," she said. "Now when people say that I don't feel like they're lying."

The ambitious Michele plans to continue singing, dancing and acting well after her Glee character graduates from high school.

"I don’t stop. It’s my nature," she says. "People have to tell me to slow down. I plan on playing every role on Broadway...I want to do movies, make music. Glee is only the beginning."
