Lea Michele On 'Sons Of Anarchy' Role: "It's Such An Honour"

Lea Michele has revealed she had to try her best not to "freak out" on the set on Sons Of Anarchy.

Back in July, we told you how Michele - who is best known for playing Rachel Berry in Glee - had landed the role of Gertie, an "empathetic truck stop waitress and single mother, who connects with Gemma during a difficult time".

And, when attending the final season premiere of the hit US series in Los Angeles over the weekend, the actress could hardly contain her excitement over starring in the show.

She told the Associated Press: "I am a huge fan I had to control myself on the set, to not freak out. I was like, 'Oh my god, this isn't Katey Sagal, this is Gemma, this is crazy.' It's such an honour, and being a huge fan, I'm so honoured to be here."

The final series of Sons Of Anarchy premieres tonight, at 9pm on FX.
