RIP Luke Perry.

Luke Perry, star of such generation-defining works as Beverly Hills 90210, Buffy The Vampire Slayer, and most recently, Riverdale, the dark-tone Archie Comics adaptation on The CW, died on Monday morning from complications after he suffered a stroke.


Perry has been an icon of teen television for close to 30 years, with his career beginning in the early '90s with 90210.

He has been mourned across the board by co-stars and colleagues alike.

He left an impact on so many.








Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa, the lead writer on Riverdale, has spoken up to say that Perry's memory will be honored in every episode from hereon out.

"Going through pictures on my way to set. From the early days. With Luke in the middle. Our heart, always," he wrote on Instagram. "Tonight's episode of #Riverdale finds Fred doing what he does best―helping Archie. It is dedicated to Luke, as all episodes will be for the rest of our run. ❤️"


Others on the show spoke to how Perry was a "father figure" and "mentor" to the younger members of the cast.

"Luke was everything you would hope he would be: an incredibly caring, consummate professional with a giant heart, and a true friend to all," executive producers Greg Berlanti, Sarah Schechter, Jon Goldwater and Aguirre-Sacasa said in a statement after his death.

"Luke was incredibly generous, and he infused the set with love and kindness. Our thoughts are with Luke's family during this most difficult time."







We are all having a hard time processing Perry's death.

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
