"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 few weeks."
The actress also wore a necklace that spelled out "Cory" to the ceremony.
"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 gonna get through this together. He was very special to me and also to the world. 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 will stay forevery. So thank you guys so much. Thank you."
This was the first public appearance for Michele since the death of Montieth who died on July 13 from a lethal combination of heroin and alcohol.
