In an emotional tribute, Glee creators Ryan Murphy, Brad Falchuk and Ian Brennan shared how 'heartbroken' they are over the loss of their 'friend' NayaRivera that they 'lucked into finding.'

to the actress. Rivera's career broke out in 2009 on Murphy's mega-hit Fox musical dramedy. Following her role on the musical comedy-drama series, Rivera had a recurring role on the Lifetime drama series , which recently moved from its former home at YouTube to premium cable network Starz for its second season.star Cory Monteith, who passed away on July 13, 2013 from a drug overdose. We are heartbroken over the loss of our friend Naya Rivera.

Naya wasn’t a series regular when we cast her on Glee. She didn’t have more than a few lines in the pilot. But it didn’t take more than an episode or two for us to realize that we had lucked into finding one of the most talented, special stars we would ever have the pleasure of working with. Naya could act, she could dance, and she could sing She could nail a joke as well as she could crush you with an emotional scene. She could move between being scary tough and deeply vulnerable with ease.

Naya is responsible for numerous iconic Glee musical performances- The Adele Mash Up, Valerie, Songbird- but her greatest Glee legacy is probably the humor and humanity that she brought to Santana’s relationship with her best friend and eventual girlfriend/wife Brittany .

Naya was a real pro. Always on time, always knew her lines , always kept everyone laughing on the set. She was warm and caring and fiercely protective of the rest of the cast. She was tough and demanding. She was fun. She was kind. She was generous. There were ups and downs during the wonderful and stressful years we spent making Glee. We disagreed, we fought, we made up, then we fought some more, than we made up again. The kinds of things that happen in a family.

Our hearts go out to her family, especially her mom, Yolanda, who was a big part of the Glee family and her son Josey. The three of us are currently in the process of creating a college fund for the beautiful son Naya loved most of all.

She left a child ......

I have never heard of her or seen that show, but it was so sad to hear about this and her son 😔

It sounds like she was an amazing mother. And she sacrificed herself for her son. I can't think of anything I admire more. How horribly sad. We need all the good people we can get in the world.

Ryan Murphy is a master of PR. 🤭🤣👏👏👏

Amazingly beautiful 💕

Right thing to do, but stupid for BFalchuk & Glee people to stroke their egos & feel the need to announce it publicly, all for a little PR.

Nice thought, but this kid will be financially taken care of. How about a scholarship for musical kids who can’t afford college in her name

This is nice

Great effort..

Awwww How beautiful xxxx

Brilliant news. RIPNayaRivera
