A man has been arrested in relation to the death of Ingrid Rivera, a Queens woman slain at the birthday party of Lil’ Kim over the weekend.

Sunday night, at a New York karaoke club called Spotlight Live, hordes of people came out to celebrate the 33rd birthday of the rap star. Celebs in the building included Missy Elliott, Wyclef Jean, and Busta Rhymes.

Twenty-four-year-old Rivera, a British Airways ticket agent at John F. Kennedy International airport, was excited to see Kim. She gave the pint-sized emcee flowers. Later, Rivera downed too many drinks, and was kicked out the venue after stumbling into the men’s room. Before the night was over, she was found dead on the roof, bludgeoned by a pipe.

According to Newsday, investigators found Rivera drugged to an electrical room atop the Times Square venue, blood-smeared with her dressed hiked up. Though no weapon was found, 24-year-old Sayed Rahman, a 5-foot-6, 130-pound club worker who shares an apartment with his parents in Harlem, confessed to the murder.

According to police, Rahman found Rivera after she had been kicked out the party, and offered to sneak her back in. The two allegedly got into an argument, after Rahman made sexual advances at the victim, and she resisted, Newsday reports.

Rahman left work two hours early that night, and slept in Central Park before crashing at a friend’s spot. On August 6, a maintenance worker discovered Rivera— who had died from blunt force trauma to the back of her head—around 5: 30 p.m. On August 7, detectives were waiting for Rahman, at his home where he was arrested.

Charges have yet to be filed.

“Lil’ Kim mourns the death of Ms. Rivera,” the rapper’s spokesman, Ronn Torossian, said. “She knew nothing of this incident until she heard media reports.”
