In addition to her incredible talent, fans love Lea because of her incredibly big heart. She truly embodies what it means to be a Disney Princess, and fans feel very protective of the musical theatre actress. This is why her supporters were disgusted to hear of an incident that took place backstage at Salonga’s current Broadway show.

Right now, Salonga is starring in the new musical, Here Lies Love. Backstage after a show, a group of fans snuck backstage to meet the star. Footage of the incident has now gone viral. The video shows a shocked Salonga reacting to these fans backstage. These Guests were not on the list to visit her, and it is clear that she is uncomfortable seeing them there.

This entire video is incredibly difficult to watch. It brings up a bigger conversation about how we, as fans, are treating Disney celebrities. It is so important to stay professional and courteous of an actor’s personal space, and this incident goes directly against that.
