GLEE's Amber Riley Passes Out on Red Carpet

By: May. 02, 2012

According to The Hollywood Reporter, GLEE star Amber Riley fainted on the red carpet as she prepared to participate on a GLEE panel discussion for the TV Academy of Arts and Sciences in North Hollywood. The actress passed out in the middle of an interview surrounded by the press and cameramen. 

Following the incident, Riley tweeted, "I got a little dizzy from all the photog flashes! You'd think I'd be used to it by now, still a red carpet amateur I guess. Gonna get checked out but I feel fine. Thank you for all the concern and well wishes."

The actress went on to say, "I'd also like to thank the photographers for being so professional and not taking photos of me on the ground. I truly truly appreciate it. Could have been super embarrassing."

During the panel discussion at the TV Academy, Riley was asked to recall her favorite moment with co-star and TV beau Chord Overstreet. The actress replied, "It's always interesting when we kiss because both of our lips are so big. We have to figure out whose lips are going to be on top!"
