14 DAY TRIAL // Naya Rivera and Lea Michele, both stars on Fox’s musical series “Glee,” are said to hate each other so much that, no long ago, they got into a nasty fight on set and had to have security break them up. The feud goes back many months and, according to a new report, it’s not about to die down soon either.
A few days ago, word got out that Lea Michele has a new man in her life: they met on the set of her new video, for the single “On My Way,” and he’s handsome and charming – but also working, until they met, as a gigolo for a major provider of this type of services.
If reports online are to be believed, the guy in question, identified as Matthew Paetz, is pretty expensive too, which says a lot about his skills in… offering company to single or just lonely women.
Lea hasn’t said anything on these rumors, but her friends are claiming that Matthew is not a gigolo but a dating coach, one who counsels and helps people to get dates.
Either way, the one person who’s sitting by and having a blast while all this is going on is Naya Rivera, Lea’s Arch-rival, Hollywood Life has learned.
“The feud between the two is still fresh and Naya is aware of the guy that Lea is dating — and what he has been involved in — and she thinks that its hilarious that Lea is in this situation. It’s funny to her that Lea has a man that people usually pay for his affections, since that is exactly the kind of person who Naya thinks can handle her,” an insider reveals for the publication.
For years, Lea has had a reputation of being a diva on “Glee,” of acting as if everyone else on the show was beneath her and she was the only reason why people tuned in every week. She is also said to be very, if not actually impossible to please, which would explain why Naya believes a guy would stand her only if she paid him to spend time with her.
Of course, there was never any kind of “evidence” to back up all this talk of diva behavior. In fact, Cory Monteith, Lea’s boyfriend, who died last summer of an accidental drug overdose, had never but the most amazing things to say about her.
Many fans have probably chosen to believe him over these unnamed “insiders.”
Speaking of Cory and these tipsters, another one reveals for the same media outlet that Matthew is just as kind and attentive as the late Cory also was.
“She has by no means found a replacement for Cory, but there are many similarities between the two. She likes the way he treats her — like a princess. Plus he’s a complete gentleman and down to earth. She also likes that Matt has a great sense of humor and makes her laugh,” the source says.
If that’s true, then probably Lea doesn’t even care what Naya has to say about her new man.
