Big Sean: Naya is my fairy tale

Big Sean's relationship with Naya Rivera is a "classic fairy tale".

The couple met online and went public with their relationship in April, with the rapper joking it is a totally modern romance.

"It's definitely the classic fairy tale," Big Sean joked on The Wendy Williams Show. "It started on Twitter!"

He also revealed Naya first became interested in him after a photoshoot he did for GQ magazine. The Glee actress was so impressed with the images, her friends convinced her to reach out to him.

"She saw me in a GQ magazine spread and was like 'Damn, this is what Big Sean looks like?'" the rapper said. "Her friends amped her up like, 'You should follow him on Twitter,' so she followed me and the rest is history."

Naya and Big Sean took their relationship slowly, really getting to know each other before making a commitment.

"It started from there and took a while – we went out to eat, we hung out a lot and things just kept growing," Big Sean said. "I was like, when somebody takes away stress instead of adding to it and is cool, you've got to take advantage of that."

The fifth season of Glee premiered on Thursday night in the US and show creator Ryan Murphy has revealed a first look at the tribute for late star Cory Monteith, who died of a drug overdose in July.

Murphy tweeted a black and white picture of Cory with the caption, "The hardest word to say is 'goodbye'."

The tribute to Cory, who portrayed Finn Hudson, will be on the third episode of the season.
