“I just wanted to be here today to personally thank all of you and tell everyone out there how much all of your love and support has meant to me over these very past difficult [sic] weeks,” Michele said, with tears welling up in her eyes, according to ETonline.com. “Not that I had any doubt before, but you guys are most certainly the greatest fans in the world. I wanted to dedicate this award to Cory. For all of you out there who loved and admired Cory as much as I did, I promise that with your love we’re going to get through this together.”
Michele continued: “He was very special to me and also to the world and we were very lucky to witness his incredible talent, his handsome smile, and his beautiful, beautiful heart. So, whether you knew him personally or just as ‘Finn Hudson,’ Cory reached out and he became a part of all of our hearts and that’s where he’ll stay forever. So, thank you guys so much. Thank you.”
