Amber Rose Lists Ice Spice & GloRilla As Dream Collabs, Blames Men For Female Artist Drama
It’s been nearly 24 hours since the 65th annual Grammy Awards began yesterday (February 6). Somehow, the internet is still catching up on the evening’s biggest moments, from the hottest looks on the red carpet to the juiciest celebrity interviews. In terms of the latter, Amber Rose spilled plenty of tea while chatting with Hollywood Unlocked ahead of the show.
For her saunter down the “runway,” the model donned a stunning black dress, also covering her eyes with signature black oversized sunglasses. The bottom half of her gown was sheer, subtly exposing her leg, and she wore sparkly silver heels to finish the look. Elsewhere, Rose added cutout gloves and bulky chains around her neck.
As per usual, she looked fabulous and confident. While chatting with reporters she exuded the same energy, dishing about her dream collaborators and thoughts on female rap beef. “If somebody were to hop on the remix with you for ‘Surprise Me,’ who would it be?” the mother of two was asked last night.
“Oooh, oh my goodness. I would like Ice Spice,” she gushed to the outlet. “I like GloRilla too though,” she quickly added, shouting out the southern superstar. Nothing has been confirmed, but now that both up-and-coming stars know of Rose’s interest in them, we could hear something come together down the line.
The Philadelphia native also teased the possibility of an appearance on Jason Lee’s new podcast. “I have to mentally prepare first,” she joked about sitting down with the media personality. On the bright side, she did agree to be his Grammys date, which is a strong first step.
Later in their chat, Rose made it clear that “[she] don’t wanna date nobody” right now. “Don’t be in my DMs, don’t bother me, I’m good. I’m happy, she told viewers. Finally, the 39-year-old answered a question about female artists, such as Rihanna and Beyoncé, so often being pitted against one another.
“I think men decide that,” Amber told Hollywood Unlocked. “The patriarchy! Men don’t do that, like, maybe Biggie and Tupac. But other than that? Every man continues to flourish,” she went on. “I feel like, when it comes to women, it’s Cardi B and Nicki, or Beyoncé and Rihanna. Just let everyone be great and support and love them for what they do.”
As far as collaborations go, Ice Spice has been killing it lately. For her own Like..? EP, the Bronx-born rhymer worked with her good friend Lil Tjay on “Gangsta Boo.” More recently, she joined Pink Pantheress for “Boy’s a liar Pt. 2,” the remix of the English singer’s popular title from her Take Me Home EP.
In the accompanying music video, the two artists travel around New York City with their friends. See it for yourself here. Afterward, tell us who you hope Amber Rose makes music with next in the comments below.

GloRilla Meets Beyoncé, Her Dream Collaborator, At The Grammys
Awards season is officially upon us. This means the internet will see a slew of exciting celebrity crossovers in the coming months. Sunday (February 5) night celebrated one of the biggest evenings in music we’ll see this year, better known as the Grammys. Plenty of our favourites stepped out in their best dressed, including Cardi B, Beyoncé, and Doja Cat.
Now that COVID-19 feels like a thing of the past, many of them found time to pose for photos and videos together. Thankfully for fans, many were subsequently shared on social media. One name that practically everyone in the building wanted to meet is obviously Queen B. The mother of three left with four new trophies under her arm last night, as well as the title of most-awarded Grammy artist of all time.
When she wasn’t on stage accepting her various prizes, Beyoncé was kiking with other industry favourites. Among them is GloRilla, whose excitement was radiating in the adorable clip she uploaded to social media last night. In the three-second video, the “FTCU” rhymer smiles ear to ear and waves at the camera as her new friend leans in.
“I love you so much,” she gushes over Bey, who also gives the camera a heartwarming grin and giggle. “I met Beyoncé, bye!!!!!!” the rapper wrote in her caption. “My life is COMPLETE.” Coming face-to-face with the vocalist would surely be an amazing experience for any fan. As it turns out, though, the Houston native is one of GloRilla’s dream collaborators.
In an exclusive interview with Grammy.com, the southern rapper said, “There’s a lot of people I want to do songs with that I’m a fan of, but my top two that I’m extremely obsessed with [are] Beyoncé and Chief Keef.” Additionally, Glo listed Drake and Lil Wayne as other potential musical link-ups.
Beyoncé certainly stole the show – as expected – at the 2023 Grammy Awards. Still, she’s not the only Black female celebrity to achieve an amazing feat thanks to her trophies. Apart from the countless singers and songwriters who were celebrated on Sunday night, Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom actress Viola Davis also left the building with a new accolade.
Thanks to her work narrating her own audiobook, Finding Me, the 57-year-old is officially an EGOT. This puts her alongside the ranks of previous champions such as John Legend, Audrey Hepburn, and Jennifer Hudson. Read more about Davis’ exciting achievement here, and check back later for more pop culture updates.

GloRilla Delivers New Banger “Internet Trolls”
GloRilla is not slowing her momentum, returning with a new banger titled “Internet Trolls.”
The supporting “Internet Trolls” video opens with GloRilla counting up dollars at a table before letting people see the diamonds on her neck and fingers. The video then highlights how trolls on the Internet show one thing but are different individuals altogether. Examples in the video are a gun-toting rapper using his child’s toy and a mother who only takes care of her kids for the Gram.
“Watch out for them internet trolls/They be tryna satisfy them internet goals,” GloRilla spits throughout the single.
Earlier this week, GloRilla launched her “Anyways, Life’s Great” tour by luring super-producer Polow Da Don onto the stage, tying his hands behind his back, taunting him with sexy inquiries, and pump-fake a lap dance before declaring that he seems like the sort to “Nut Quick.”
Following that, GloRilla performed “Nut Quick” from her debut EP “Anyways, Life’s Great…,” which is available for streaming below via CMG/Interscope Records.
Before GloRilla makes her first-ever performance at the Grammys, where she is nominated for “Best Rap Performance,” she embarks on a sold-out tour. The Memphis native’s rapid ascent earned her a nomination for “Favorite Female Hip-Hop Artist” at the American Music Awards and the “Breakthrough Artist” at the 2022 BET HipHop Awards.
With her song “Tomorrow 2” featuring Cardi B, GloRilla recently scored her second No. 1 at U.S. Urban Radio in Dec. 2022. Previously, in Aug. 2022, when her breakthrough hit “FNF (Let’s Go)” climbed to No. 1 on the U.S. Urban Radio chart, she accomplished the feat of topping the charts.

GloRilla Gives The Middle Finger To ‘Internet Trolls’ On Her Empowering New Anthem
GloRilla is back with her empowering brand new song, “Internet Trolls,” which serves as a pushback anthem against exactly that: the online haters.
“You could be who you wanna be, live how you wanna live / Stunt how you wanna stunt, give what you ‘posed to give / Say what you wanna say, feel how you wanna feel,” Glo notes in the first verse. “Sometimes, I think they be forgettin’ the internet a fairytale / Teach that n**** for the people, but in person, he a b*tch / They be gangster on the booth, but in them papers be a snitch.”
As for the music video, it finds GloRilla tracking down her e-haters and teaching them a lesson — without any major spoilers here.
Long story short: nothing online matters. Log off. Have some real fun with your besties. And ignore anyone who has a problem with it.
She had previously teased the heavy-hitting track in a video clip from Triller, where she dances around a room and shows off her decked-out rings.
