Amber Riley “Okay” After Collapsing On Red Carpet

Glee star Amber Riley says she feels fine following a collapse on the red carpet this week. The 26-year-old was walking the red carpet at a screening of Glee in Hollywood Tuesday evening when she fainted. In a message posted on Twitter, Riley blamed camera flashes for the incident.

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

"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,” she added.

Riley plays Mercedes on the hit Fox series, which also stars Lea Michele, Dianna Agron, Matthew Morrison, Heather Morris, Cory Monteith, Darren Criss, Chris Colfer and Jane Lynch. The season three finale of Glee is set to air on May 22.
