"Glee" star Lea Michele has officially moved on following the death of her former co-star and boyfriend Cory Monteith. Now, multiple sources claim that the actress is seeing video superstar Matthew Paetz.
Although there's really nothing surprising with the 27-year-old dating someone new, what shocked fans was the fact that multiple sources insinuated that Michele was seeing a former hooker.
Renowned blogger Perez Hilton was first to remind Rachel Berry fans of that one episode in season 4 where Rachel, played by Michele, dated a gigolo, according to Latino Post.
"Clean cut cutie-pie Lea Michele apparently has a bad girl side as she's said to be dating a new man, but not just any new man. The actress' rumored new lover was apparently very recently a paid lover for other ladies," Hilton wrote.
TMZ also reported that Paetz worked for Cowboys4Angels, a service website that offers women so-called "male companionship."
However, on the aspiring actor's official Facebook page, he billed himself as a professional life coach.
Meanwhile, a reliable source close to Michele confirmed the rumors to E! News and said, "She's having fun, but it's not extremely serious.
Another insider told the publication, "He will be a great arm candy and he is a very nice guy, and is a lot of fun. He is very into being in a relationship and loves being in one. He is the kind of person who will want to be with that person all the time, but in a good way. And he is a good listener."
The alleged couple first met when Paetz joined Michele for her "On My Way" music video. One of the couple's friends told US Weekly, "She had just come from Coachella where she was missing Cory incredibly. The video shoot was a big party and a really therapeutic moment for her."
