"We both lost an amazing friend in a tragic accident and we both will miss her forever," Howery told viewers.
Taking to the stage against a backdrop of black and white pictures of Rivera, an emotional Riley sang: "I'm ready to fight, I'm ready to see what's on the other side.
"I'm ready to cry and just let it be. I don’t have much pride, I put that aside. Get back to me."
I didn't make it 15 seconds before I was a puddle. I love you Naya. RIP Angel 💜💕
