Editor's note

Naya Rivera, the Glee star who sang Sorry

The actress turned solo singer behind the 2013 single 'Sorry' and memorable Glee covers.

For her solo work, start with 'Sorry'. For her Glee moments, 'So Emotional' or 'If I Can't Have You' give you the tone she brought to those covers.

Rivera's voice reached millions through her role as Santana Lopez on Glee, where she performed songs like 'So Emotional' and 'Don't Stop Believin''. Her 2013 solo single 'Sorry' with Big Sean showed she could carry a track outside the show's context. That move from TV singing to a Billboard-charting solo record gave her musical presence a distinct chapter.

She joined Glee in 2009, singing on camera for six seasons. In 2013, she released the single 'Sorry' and followed with a debut album the next year. Her death in 2020 cut short what might have come after.
