‘Glee’ stars talk season three, the tour & graduation!

PopWrap: Santana really had an amazing season — full of  emotional upheaval. Did you ever expect this seemingly minor character  would become, to me, the show’s bright spot?  Naya Rivera: From day one, my goal was just to do good work – and  stick around [laughs]. I never thought this would happen, but I’m just  so happy that it did. It’s so shocking to me, and very, very flattering  that people love me because they love Santana. I feel so blessed.
PW: You’ve also become quite the lesbian du jour. I’d imagine that’s changed your fan interactions. Naya: [laughs] I got proposed to by women twice today at a Meet  & Greet. And at the last tour stop, I got two bouquets of roses.  It’s so sweet. Getting hit on by both genders is such a champagne  problem. 
PW: For my money, Santana got the best songs and storylines  this season. Was there ever a pre-“Glee” point where you had to think:  “ok, singing or acting?” Naya: Totally. All my life I’ve had anxiety about focusing on acting  or focusing on singing – how am I going to juggle it. So to be blessed  with a show like this where I can do both is icing on the cake. It’s  another champagne problem.
PW: Any particular favorite moments from season two? Naya: I loved what the fans having lovingly dubbed “The Hurt Locker”  – when Santana confessed her love for Brittany. It was the first time,  as an actor, I saw the fruits of my labor. I was so prepared for that  scene and in my heart, I was happy with the work I did. And to be so  proud of something you did is the best feeling, no matter the  profession.
PW: I know the writers are still breaking season three, so what would you like to see for Santana next year? Naya: I’d like to see her explore her sexuality more – maybe with  people aside from Brittany. I know everyone wants them together, but I  think [show writer] Brad Falchuk put it best when he said that this is  about Santana’s journey and not so much about her with Brittany. I’d  love to see her get a girlfriend and maybe soften up a bit as a result.
