"Glee" actress Naya River dished about being Latina, her new fiancé rapper Big Sean and more in her new interview with Cosmopolitan magazine.

Rivera's career is on fire, with an upcoming album reportedly slated to launch later this year. Even with a whirlwind schedule, the actress took the time to gush about her life to Cosmo. Check out the best snippets of her interview in the list below.

How She Made It Through Financially Tough Times:

"I was very resourceful when it came to getting a job. I was the ultimate liar on a resume. At the tender age of 19, I said I had a bachelor's degree; they never checked! Even when I didn't have much, I always acted as if I had everything I wanted. Latin women are go-getters by nature. We have a certain charm and finesse that gets us what we want."

Why She Loves Her Fiancé So Much:

"I think he's going to be an amazing husband, and he'll make a great father someday...He's so kind to people, but he also wears the pants in our relationship, which I love. We Latinas are very independent and strong, so it's even sweeter that I've found somebody who can let me out of that role for a minute."

The Secret To Her "HOT" Sex Life:

"The most essential ingredient to a hot sex life is passion, says Rivera, joking, 'We have sex in public. We have sex everywhere!' Then she winks and says, 'I'm just messing with you.' A firm believer that 'a lady should be a lady,' Rivera says, 'You can't get lazy- it takes work.' She has 'tons' of nice lingerie and once asked a stripper how she kept her skin so soft. 'She told me to use baby oil instead of lotion,' Rivera reveals, adding, 'You always have to make an effort.'"
