===Tributes and legacy===
 
The staff and crew of ''Vote for the Girls'' learned of Johnson's death as the voting period had just ended in Colorado. Production was interrupted for the rest of the day (Johnson's picks for the twelfth season of The Voice and the 24th season of Dancing with the Stars were made several weeks beforehand). In accordance with American journalistic tradition, the public announcement of Johnson's death was withheld by both the [[wikipedia:News agency|wire services]], until Johnson's family had been notified.
 
 
 
The first on-air mention of Johnson's death was delivered by Ava Zinn then delivered, the news live on Vote for the Girls and WTOR/WXXC, the news of Perri Johnson's death during [[WTOR-FTV|''CBS 41 Action News at 11:00 PM'']] as breaking news just seconds after Johnson's family was notified of her death. VFTG host Ava Zinn revealed on ''The Karly Jameson Show'' on April 26 that Zinn personally made the devastating telephone call to Johnson's father, Fiona, to San Francisco station KBYF/KLSF of Perri's death. Over in San Francisco, Johnson's former KASF co-anchor Susan Peltz (working for CBS affiliate KASF) delivered the news of Johnson's death on both ''CBS 29 Action News'' and KBYF's ''Bay2 Action News at 7'' (KASF was in commercial break while KBYF was airing their 7:00 p.m. newscast after Fox programming concluded), as did NBC-owned KSFC's John Agilis and ABC-owned KASF's Ingrid Simmons.
 
 
 
 
 
On April 25 ''Vote for the Girls'' host [[Ava Zinn]] paid tribute to Johnson in an attached segment that followed the end credits for the remainder of the eighth season.  In that segment, Zinn said "Since the Vote for the Girls picks were made, we've lost our good friend and Pink Team East Moderator, Perri Johnson. You'll continue to see Holly & Perri's picks that were already made.  Perri was dearly loved by all of us and we will miss her." followed by a picture of Perri with the caption "IN MEMORY OF OUR FRIEND: PERRI JOHNSON 1965-2017". The final supported of Holly & Perri's picks on ''Dancing with the Stars'' were [[wikipedia:Normani Kordei|Normani Kordei Hamilton]] (Hamilton was previously a contestant on the second season of ''The X Factor USA'' as a member of [[wikipedia:Fifth Harmony|Fifth Harmony]] and [[Carlygate|finished in third place]]) and [[wikipedia:Valentin Chmerkovskiy|Val Chmerkovskiy]], [[wikipedia:Nick Vaill|Nick Vaill]] & [[wikipedia:Peta Murgatroyid|Peta Murgatroyid]], and [[wikipedia:Heather Morris|Heather Morris]] and [[wikipedia:Maksim Chmerkovskiy|Maksim Chmerkovskiy]],<ref>{{cite web|url=http://abcnews.go.com/Entertainment/dancing-stars-2017-season-24-celebrity-cast-partners/story?id=45767534|title=‘Dancing With the Stars’ 2017: Season 24 celebrity cast and partners revealed on 'GMA’|date=March 1, 2016|work=ABC News|accessdate=March 1, 2016}}</ref> and their final picks for the twelfth season of ''The Voice'' were Brennley Brown and Aliyah Moulden.
