On Monday night, Glee actor Amber Riley shared a tender selfie video made by her late co-star Naya Rivera.

The adorable video, which featured Rivera singing a wholesome duet with her 4-year-old son, took on a mournful tone in the wake of Rivera's sudden, tragic drowning in a Southern California lake last week.


Riley, who often shared songs with Rivera throughout their time on Glee, included a tearful caption along with the brief video.

"My favorite duet partner. I love you. I miss you. I don't have words right now, just lots of feelings. Rest In Peace Angel, and know that your family will never have to worry about anything."

The confirmation of Rivera's death came after authorities spent multiple days searching for the 33-year-old's body in Lake Piru, where she was last seen swimming with her son and occasional bedtime duet partner, Josey Hollis Dorsey.

Though Rivera and Dorsey left shore in a pontoon boat, only Dorsey was discovered hours later. He was sleeping alone on the boat and an adult life vest laid beside him.

Authorities then scoured the area for six days and finally found Rivera's body.

The Ventura County Sheriff's Department, who conducted the search, reported that Rivera was swimming with Dorsey when their boat likely drifted a considerable distance away from them. Sheriff's speculated that Rivera then helped her son swim back to the boat and pushed him on deck, but lacked the strength to hoist herself up.

Riley's heart-wrenching post added to an already massive outpouring of emotion from grief-stricken Glee fans across the internet, who fell in love with Rivera's historic portrayal of a high school cheerleader who comes out as queer.

The post brought Riley some love and support too. Several followers reached out to offer condolences, including her Glee co-star Dianna Agron.

We offer sympathy to Riley and all of Rivera's family and friends, and we hope young Dorsey continues to sing, even in the wake of his mother's tragic passing.

Lindsey Graham Sparks Fury After Suggesting That Trump Could Be The Next Pope

After President Donald Trump jokingly told reporters that he'd "like to be pope" following the death of Pope Francis, South Carolina Republican Senator Lindsey Graham threw himself behind Trump's remarks, which came after Trump already raised the ire of critics for seemingly falling asleep at the Pope's funeral.

Trump said that he himself "would be my number one choice" to be the next pope after he was asked who he’d like to see become the next pontiff. That would never, ever happen—and disrespects the billions of Catholics around the world who are in mourning—but Graham suggested it was a good idea in a post on X.

Trump Bizarrely Clashes With Reporter Over Photoshopped 'Tattoo' On Abrego Garcia's Knuckles

President Donald Trump sparked criticism after claiming during an interview with ABC News’ Terry Moran that an edited photo depicting tattoos of wrongly-deported Maryland father Kilmar Abrego Garcia showed that he has an alleged connection to the MS-13 gang.

Abrego Garcia, a Salvadoran national who arrived in the U.S. in 2012, was labeled a threat in 2019 due to an alleged connection to MS-13. He spent months in detention before an immigration judge found he had a credible fear of persecution—not from MS-13, but from a rival group, Barrio 18, which he said had been extorting his family.

Leavitt Lashes Out At Amazon Over 'Hostile' Plan To Display Added Tariff Costs For Products On Website

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt lashed out at Amazon over news that the commerce giant planned to display increased "import charges" on items on their Amazon Haul website, essentially showing to customers the extra money they'd have to shell out as a result of President Donald Trump's tariffs.

Trump has escalated a growing trade war by imposing tariffs of up to 145% on Chinese imports, prompting China to retaliate with its own 125% tariffs on American goods. Additionally, the U.S. has slapped a 10% tax on imports from most other countries, while temporarily suspending higher rates for several nations for 90 days.
