According to TMZ, the police in said that Glorilla’s arrest occurred in the early hours of Tuesday at 4 a.m. when police saw a car execute an illegal U-turn at a red light. Immediately, the police flagged down the vehicle out of suspicion of the driver, prompting a traffic stop to investigate further. Police said they detected scents of cannabis and alcohol emanating from the vehicle. GloRilla, who revealed that she was returning from a venue, later admitted that she consumed alcohol earlier in the evening, though she insisted that she was capable of safely operating a motor vehicle. However, she declined to disclose how much alcohol she consumed.

Field Sobriety Test

As a result of her admission, GloRilla underwent a field sobriety test. The police report states that she exhibited signs of impairment including struggling to maintain balance and following instructions. They claimed that she performed poorly on the eye-follow-test, walk-and-turn, and one-leg balance. However, things took a further turn once GloRilla reportedly refused to undergo a breathalyzer test. Moreover, police noted that GloRilla suffered a wardrobe malfunction as one of GloRilla’s breasts inadvertently became exposed ahead of her arrest.

GloRilla Posts Bond

Fortunately, this episode only lasted a few hours for the Memphis rapper. Police took her into custody on charges of DUI, open container and failure to obey a traffic control device. The rapper had one of her associates pick up her vehicle while police brought her to the station. There, she posted a bond of $1,956 and was later released, per WSBTV.

Thusfar, GloRilla hasn’t directly acknowledged her arrest. However, she did post an image of herself with a bottle of Taylor Port after she was released, further angering fans. Though purported mugshots have surfaced online, the rapper has continued to push her single, “Wanna Be” ft. Megan Thee Stallion – her Instagram page is flooded with posts from the single’s inspired challenge. However, GloRilla’s arrest also earned her some trolls, specifically from Damian Lillard’s estranged wife. Kay’la Lillard shared a photo of GloRilla’s mugshot to her Instagram Story, writing, “Free GloLillard #sisterwife.” If you recall, Glo previously tried to shoot her shot at the NBA star, which kind of backfired on her.

What’s Next For Glo?

Hopefully, the chapter surrounding GloRilla’s arrest will all be resolved soon, especially since she is set to hit the road in the coming months. Following the release of GloRilla’s single, “Wanna Be” with Megan Thee Stallion, the Houston rapper announced that she would be hitting the road on the 2024 Hot Girl Summer tour which kicks off in Minneapolis on May 14th. Glo recently dropped off her project, Ehhthang Ehhthang which has continued to impact the charts.

GloRilla has been making headlines over the last 12 hours for all of the wrong reasons. Overall, it was revealed that the artist was hit with a DUI arrest in Georgia. Furthermore, there were details that a wardrobe malfunction took place during the arrest. Even Damian Lillard’s ex-wife weighed in on the whole thing, making this that much more serious. Ultimately, fans are confused as to what really went down, and of course, some are just straight up disappointed. After all, you can easily hurt someone by driving under the influence.

Unfortunately, it appears as though GloRilla doesn’t see the seriousness in what went down. According to The Neighborhood Talk, following her arrest, she took to Twitter where she posted a photo of herself with a Taylor Port bottle. Considering what she was arrested for, this came across as extremely distasteful. Although the tweet has since been deleted, fans are very much unimpressed with what they saw, and they have been making those feelings known.
