Lea Michele Defends New Boyfriend: He’s Just A Dating Coach!

Lea Michele must really like her boyfriend, because she’s already believing his lies. We told you yesterday that the Glee star was in a new relationship with a male escort named Matthew Paetz.

TMZ successfully tracked down his old profile on the male escort site Cowboys4Angels, where he charged women over $17,000 to hang out with him for an entire week. He described himself as a dating expert, massage therapist and certified life coach.

Sources say Lea wasn’t aware of his shady history. She was reportedly pissed when she saw the report on TMZ, and she confronted him about it.

Paetz admitted to going on a few dates with his female clients, but he claims it was just for research. He wanted to understand what gigolos go through so he could properly coach them through their struggles.

The good news for Paetz is that Lea bought his excuse. I guess it’s easier to get away with sh-t when you look like a male model. I’d be the same way if I was dating a really hot chick.

My friends could be like, “Yo, I saw her sucking this dude’s d**k in the back of the club last night.”

And I’d be like, “What? My Candy sucking on a d**k? No way, she won’t even suck mine! She probably just dropped a piece of gum in his lap.”
