GloRilla felt the wrath of an angry fan this week when a drink was hurled in her direction as she was leaving a venue.
Footage of the incident circulated online and showed Big Glo being escorted by a team of people as a woman threw a drink at her and began cursing at the rapper. The Memphis native saw the woman and pointed her out as a security team was moving her to safety.

A woman on Glo’s side started arguing with the angry fan after the rapper kept pointing her out, and those two almost came to blows before security intervened.
“Fuck you bitch, weak ass bitch,” the fan yells in the video before she spits in GloRilla’s direction. You can see the clip below.
It’s not fully clear what led to the altercation, but GloRilla was reportedly paid $30,000 to perform at a club in Oakland, California. Things went smoothly when she showed up, but quickly took a turn when Glo didn’t perform for an unspecified reason.
The incident comes as a surprise, especially with the breakout run GloRilla has had over the last several months. Her single “F.N.F. (Let’s Go)” put her on the map and gave the rapper her first Grammy nomination for Best Rap Performance.

It also led to Glo linking up with Cardi B for the remix to “Tomorrow 2,” which dropped last September. GloRilla’s popularity rose tremendously after Nas shouted her out on King’s Disease III track “Til My Last Breath,” where he raps: “I’m applying pressure, I see why she prеssed (Why she pressed)/ When she with me she GloRilla, FNF (FNF)/ N-A-S, I’m steppin’ ’til my last breath (My last breath, yeah).”
TMZ caught up with the Memphis native shortly after King’s Disease III dropped last November, and the young rapper was thrilled by Nas’ shout-out.
“I love that so much, Nas is a big legend for real,” Glo said. “That’s super big. Like I never in a million years.”
If that weren’t enough, GloRilla represented the new generation of rap when she touched the stage for the Hip Hop 50 tribute at the 65th annual Grammy Awards.

Big Glo, along with Lil Uzi Vert, joined several Hip Hop legends on stage, such as LL COOL J, Rakim, Missy Elliott, The LOX and more, as they celebrated Hip Hop’s 50th birthday with an incredible 15-minute long performance.
