Lea Michele Celebrates GLEE's 7th Anniversary with Throwback Thursday Photo

Lea Michele turned to Instagram yesterday to share a very special 'Throwback Thursday' photo celebrating the 7-year anniversary of the premiere of GLEE.

The actress captioned the photo at left: "#tbt 7 years ago.. It's unbelievable how quickly time can go by.. To think we aired 7 years ago today.. Found this photo from our Upfronts trip to NYC just days before the premiere. We were all so excited. We went around the table and each said something we loved about each other.. No matter where we all are now.. I will always think back to this night. #glee"
