Shirlene Quigley — Rihanna's backup dancer whose sudden disappearance this week moved the pop icon to ask fans to report any news to police — has been found and is safe, Pitchfork reported on Tuesday evening.

The North Bergen Police Department posted to Twitter and Instagram saying its detectives found Quigley during a search conducted with elements of the New York City Police Department. Quigley is being treated at an undisclosed location, according to authorities.
