It's a drive-by punchline The post Lea Michele Catches a Stray From John Oliver About Illiteracy appeared first on TheWrap .
John Oliver's latest episode of "Last Week Tonight" featured a segment targeting subscription models and their sneaky tactics. Amazon Prime was cited as an example, using a yellow button for both checkout confirmation and sign-up purposes. The host highlighted how this strategy could be deceptive, especially for those with limited English proficiency, older individuals less familiar with technology, or those with low literacy skills.
As Oliver made this point, an image of former "Glee" star Lea Michele flashed on the screen, eliciting laughter from the audience. This interaction sparked a recurring joke about Michele's supposed illiteracy, which originated from her past habit of posting emojis and misspelled words on Instagram. Despite the ongoing jest, Michele remains well aware of the jest.
Occasionally, she is challenged to read something new during interviews, as people continue to speculate about her reading abilities. John Oliver's full segment on subscription models can be viewed in the video above.
