Lea Michele & Boyfriend Matthew Paetz Kiss in Italy
"Glee" star Lea Michele was not afraid to show some skin --- okay, a lot of skin, while vacationing in Capri, Italy with boyfriend, Matthew Paetz and some of the couple's friends.
The singer-actress was spotted rocking a sexy green thong bikini, showing off her killer body. The 27-year-old celebrity knew she looked awesome and posted images of herself on Instagram.
Matthew, with his chiseled torso, was all over Lea. The couple was snapped kissing aboard a yacht. There was no shortage of PDA between the love birds. Insiders revealed that Lea and Matthew were accompanied by close friends during their getaway, but the two had no qualms about showing how in love they are, reported TMZ.
Meanwhile, while Lea is having a great time in Italy, a particular picture she shared on Instagram, the one you can see above, got mixed reactions from Lea's social media followers.
"The beautiful Amalfi coast!" was the caption of the photo, but Lea's followers probably weren't looking at the supposed subject of the image. The Instagram post has already generated over 120,000 likes and nearly 1,300 comments.
It's not all fun under the sun for Lea, though. According to US Magazine, the actress also attended the Giffoni Film Festival on Saturday. She remarked how much she was enjoying her travel.
"I adore Italy," said the brunette to her fans. "My family was originally from Naples. I have traveled the world and the love I have for Italy is special. My trip here has been the best of my life."
Adding she's been getting back to her roots, the star continued: "My grandparents were Italian, from Naples and Rome," she said, noting her family's love of "big Sunday lunches."
It seems Lea wanted some time away from California especially since last week, family and friends remembered her former flame, Cory Monteith, on his first death anniversary. The actor died of an accidental drug overdose in July 2013. The actress was reported to have spent a relaxing, peaceful time with loved ones.
According to E! Online, "She was in Los Angeles when she got the news that Cory died. So she was not going to stay in L.A. over his anniversary."
"We hold you in our hearts today, and every day we remember your smile. We will love you and miss you always," posted Lea on Twitter along with a photo of the Canadian actor.
