"Glee" star Lea Michele is opening up about why she hasn’t seen the show’s tribute episode to late boyfriend and co-star Cory Monteith. The Canadian actor kicked off her "An Evening with Lea Michele: Life in Music," tour in Washington, D.C., last week with an emotional performance of Bob Dylan’s "Make You Feel My Love," the same song she performed during the tribute episode to Monteith’s character, Finn Hudson.

"I think if I don't watch it, it just kind of feels like Finn is still there," Michele explained to the audience. "So this [song, 'Make You Feel My Love'] is really special."
