Glee co-creators Ryan Murphy, Brad Falchuk, and Ian Brennan announced Tuesday in a heartfelt statement that they are starting a college fund for Naya Rivera's son, Josey Dorsey. "She was a joy to write for, a joy to direct and a joy to be around," they said in a statement released by 20th Century Fox.The actress was pronounced dead this week at the age of 33 after accidentally drowning in California's Lake Piru.

The Glee family is still trying to comprehend the loss of Naya Rivera after her body was found on the same date as Cory Monteith's seventh death anniversary; i.e. July 13, 2020.

One day after authorities said that they were "confident" a body found in California's Lake Piru is former "Glee" star Naya Rivera, the co-creators of the show -- Ryan Murphy, Brad Falchuk, and Ian Brennan -- paid tribute to Rivera in an emotional statement and also announced they will be starting a college fund for her 4-year-old son Josey.

Glee creators Ryan Murphy, Brad Falchuk, and Ian Brennan are truly heartbroken by the tragic loss of Naya Rivera. After officials confirmed that Naya had passed away, following an accident at Lake Piru on July 8, Ryan, Brad and Ian released a statement to HollywoodLife while mourning the loss of their fallen star.

Naya Rivera starred in six seasons of Ryan Murphy's musical comedy Glee as the witty cheerleader Santana Lopez. On Wednesday (July 8), the 33-year-old actress went missing at Southern California's Lake Piru while apparently on a boating trip with her 4-year-old son.

Bette Midler became the latest celebrity to rebuke “demented” people that refuse to wear a mask amid the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. The “Hocus Pocus” actress took to Twitter to take a jab at people who are refusing to put on a mask despite many health experts saying that it’s necessary to curtail the spread of the coronavirus as the nation sees a spike in confirmed cases.

Season two of The Politician just premiered on Netflix, but fans will likely be waiting a long time for the third (and possibly final) season of the series.

It’s becoming clear that, 30 years into his career, Ryan Murphy views television shows, at least the ones he oversees, not as shows but as a list of checkboxes: A lengthy collation of popular ideas and opinions to be ticked off one by one, jammed into chapters clocking in at roughly 40 minutes and spare change, strung together in seasons comprising 7 and 10 episodes.

The first season of Netflix's The Politician was seven episodes of bland, meandering satire, capped off by a surprisingly engaging finale that set up a second season featuring the always-welcome Judith Light and Bette Midler.
