Riley -- who covered "I Will Always Love You" on Glee's Valentine's Day episode and met Houston two days before her Feb. 11 death -- has long been moved by the diva's music.

"Whitney's music meant so very much to me. I was very very choked up when I heard about her passing," the actress told E! shortly after Houston's untimely death. "I've grown up listening to her voice ringing throughout our household. I'm so speechless. I can't believe that she passed."
