Rapper GloRilla arrested for suspected DUI
TMZ, citing the aforementioned acquired police reports, reported that the officer detected the scent of marijuana and alcohol coming from the car during a traffic stop around 4 a.m. ET on Tuesday. GloRilla acknowledged drinking earlier that evening; however, she insisted she was capable of driving and purportedly declined to take a breathalyzer test at the scene.
Additionally, another detail from TMZ’s report suggests that GloRilla’s breast was exposed at some point during her exchange with the policeman, who had to inform the rapper of the wardrobe malfunction. The Memphis rapper was taken to jail just after 6 a.m. ET on Tuesday and released on bonds hours later, per the publication.

GloRilla is yet to publicly address her arrest. The 24-year-old, however, shortly after her arrest, posted and deleted a photo of herself on her Instagram stories with a bottle of port wine on her head, accompanied by her song High AF.
On the work front, GloRilla will hit the road with Megan Thee Stallion on her Hot Girl Summer Tour, starting next month. GloRilla will accompany Thee Stallion for the U.S. leg of her tour, which is reported to last just over two months. To promote the tour, the duo released their collab Wanna Be this April 5th.
Elsewhere, Glo has also been in the headlines for her ongoing back and forth with City Girls rapper JT after name-dropping her in the lyrics of Ehhthang Ehhthang track Aite. She, however, brushed off the drama while speaking to Billboard at the 2024 CMT Music Awards red carpet just last week.
