Hit singing show "Glee," which airs on Fox44, says it will be honoring the late Whitney Houston with a special tribute episode this Valentine's Day.

Glee's very own Amber Riley met Houston just days before the Grammy singer's untimely death Saturday. Ironically, she was slated to perform "I Will Always Love You" on Glee Tuesday. And now, Fox has decided the episode, which was taped last month, will be turned into a last minute tribute for Houston.

Glee's Valentine's Day episode finds Riley's character, Mercedes, entangled in a love triangle and forced to decide who her heart belongs to.

She says the show's producer, Ryan Murphy, had been trying to push her to sing Houston's "I Will Always Love You" for a while and she is honored to be celebrating the singer's legacy.

The show airs on Fox44 at 8 p.m. and runs an hour in length.
