SCREAM QUEENS star Lea Michele just took to Twitter gushing about the latest song she's recording for her upcoming album. The Broadway vet didn't reveal the title of the track, but BWW will bring you more news as it comes!

In an interview featured in the November issue of Marie Claire, the GLEE alum spoke about the new record and the mistakes she made leading up to the release of her debut album in 2014.

"The problem with the first record was that I would record a song, and then I would get it back from production and it would sound very different," she told the magazine. "As an artist, that can be jarring." Michele added: "I'm more hands-on [with my new album]. This is about experience, about confidence."

Michele debuted on Broadway in 1995 as a replacement for the role of Young Cosette in the original New York production of LES MISERABLES. Following her theatrical debut in LES MISERABLES, Michele was cast in the role of Tateh's daughter, the Little Girl, in the 1998 original Broadway cast of Ragtime and in 2004, Michele portrayed "Shprintze" and "Chava" in the Broadway revival of the musical FIDDLER ON THE ROOF.

Michele originated the role of Wendla in Steven Sater and Duncan Sheik's musical version of SPRING AWAKENING on Broadway in 2006. Michele was nominated for a Drama Desk Award for her performance in SPRING AWAKENING in the category of Outstanding Actress in a Musical.

In early 2009, Michele won the role of Rachel Berry on the FOX television SMASH hit, Glee (2009) and since the show's premiere on May 19, 2009, Michele has since received worldwide critical and public acclaim for her performance on the show. She currently appears in Ryan Murphy's new series SCREAM QUEENS.
