\n\tBuckle up, Gleeks, because Rachel Berry finally got her \u201cDrivers License.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThat\u2019s right: Lea Michele<\/a> stopped by The Kelly Clarkson Show<\/em> on Thursday (May 22) to deliver a stunning cover of Olivia Rodrigo<\/a>\u2018s seminal debut single.<\/p>\n

\t\t\t\t\tLea Michele Proves She Can Read After Years of \u2018Frustrating\u2019 Illiteracy\u2026\t\t<\/p>\n<\/h3><\/div>\n

\n\tDonning a ruched ivory jumpsuit, the star channeled her Glee<\/em> character\u2019s famous sense of melodrama as she belted out the eight-week No. 1 Billboard Hot 100<\/a> hit, singing, \u201cYou\u2019re probably with that blonde girl who always made me doubt\/ She\u2019s so much older than me, she\u2019s everything I\u2019m insecure about\/ Yeah, today I drove through the suburbs, \u2019cause how could I ever love someone else?\u201d (Of course, if this was the early days of Glee<\/em>, Michele-as-Berry would almost certainly be referring to Dianna Agron\u2019s Quinn Fabray, right?)<\/p>\n

\n\tFollowing the number, Michele shared with host Kelly Clarkson that her cover was, in fact, directly inspired by her iconic TV persona.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cI\u2019m on tour right now, and I\u2019m singing a lot of songs from Glee<\/em> and from Broadway,\u201d she explained. \u201cBut I do this section in my show, so it\u2019s: \u2018If Glee<\/em> were on television right now, what would Rachel Berry be singing?\u2019 And the minute I heard \u2018Drivers License,\u2019 I was like, \u2018That\u2019s such a Rachel Berry song.’\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tAfter revealing that the cast of Glee<\/em> did \u201cover 800 songs\u201d during the course of six seasons on the Fox series, Michele also teased that she has \u201csomething exciting coming up,\u201d but didn\u2019t give fans any further details besides the fact that she\u2019d be announcing the secret project \u201cvery soon.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tOther famous faces who\u2019ve performed \u201cCameo-oke\u201d numbers on The Kelly Clarkson Show<\/em> recently include Blake Shelton, Lizzo<\/a>, Sierra Hull, Ledisi and the Broadway cast of SMASH<\/em>.<\/p>\n
