Lea Michelehas credited actressKate Hudsonwith helping her cope following the death of Cory Monteith.
TheGlee star revealed that her famous friend invited her to stay at her home after her boyfriend's untimely death in the summer.
The pair became close after Hudson guest-starred on Glee as dance teacher Cassandra July - and Lea has now expressed her gratitude in an interview with Elle.
"I called and said, 'I don't know where I'm going to go because my house is swarmed [with reporters]'", Lea said.
"She was like, 'Oh, you're going to stay at my house.' Like it was nothing. No one knew I was there. I'll never really be able to thank her, truly, for what she did for me."
And the 27-year-old actress insisted that she intends to maintain a positive attitude in the wake of Cory's death.
"I never thought I would be in this position in my whole life. Now that I am in this position, you can choose to rise, and that's what I'm going to try to do. I know that Cory would want nothing more than for me to take this situation and use it to help people."
