How Amber Riley won her role in 'Glee'
Staff Reporter | Posted October 6, 2009 10:29 AM
You may know her as Mercedes Jones in the Fox Television series Glee, but Amber Riley is a young star with a big voice and a lot of talent.
Riley, who was reportedly turned down by American Idol, has found a bigger role on the small screen as an actress, dancer and singer in the hit TV series Glee. She graduated from high school herself in 2004, but she plays the role of a high school student in the series. And she stays in touch with her fans through her Twitter page, where she tweets regularly.
You can see more of Amber as she performs Kanye West's "Golddigger" in this video clip from Fox or you can watch her talk about the show in the video clip below.
