It's already been a busy few months for GloRilla, and this weekend, she has even more exciting plans. According to AllHipHop, the femcee will be performing at halftime during the 2025 WNBA All-Star Game in Indianapolis tomorrow (July 19). The game is scheduled to begin at 8:30 P.M. ET and is set to air on ABC, ESPN+, and Disney+.
The event will take place just days before her first annual "Glo Bash," which is scheduled for July 25 at FedExForum in her hometown of Memphis. She'll be joined by various special guests at the homecoming show. This includes Sexyy Red, BossMan Dlow, Rob49, Muni Long, and more.
While GloRilla certainly has plenty to celebrate these days, her summer hasn't exactly been all smooth sailing. Last month, she was hit with a lawsuit by a woman named Natalie Henderson, who goes by @slimdabodylast online. The social media influencer filed the suit in Louisiana court, alleging that the rapper used a phrase that she popularized in one of her songs without asking for permission.
The song in question is "Never Find," which appears on Glo's debut album, Glorious. It includes the lyrics, “Natural, no BBL / But I’m still gon’ give him hell.” In 2024, Henderson dropped a song of her own called "All Natural." It includes the lyrics, "All natural, no BBL / Mad hoes go to hell.”
“There are unmistakable similarities between the two works,” Henderson's legal team alleges, per Billboard. “Based upon a side-by-side comparison of the two songs, a layperson could hear similarities in the lyrics, arrangement, melody, core expression, content, and other compositional elements in both songs and conclude that songs are essentially identical.”
At the time of writing, GloRilla has not publicly responded to Henderson's lawsuit.
Perry Farrell has released another public apology following an on-stage confrontation involving his bandmate Dave Navarro.
The Jane's Addiction frontman was involved in a physical altercation with guitarist Dave Navarro last year during a live performance, an incident that prompted the band to cancel their reunion tour and eventually led to their split.
“I'd like to address what happened on stage last year,” Perry, 66, said in a statement shared across both his personal Instagram account and Jane's Addiction’s official page. “I've reflected on it and know I didn't handle myself the way I should have. I apologize to our patrons and my bandmates for losing my temper and for disrupting the show.”
He went on to admit that he did not meet fan expectations and described himself as deeply remorseful toward everyone impacted by the incident.
“Jane's Addiction has been at the center of my life for decades. The band, the songs, the patrons, and the impact that we've had on music and culture mean more to me than any words I could ever possibly write down,” he shared.
“My aim has always been to give our audience the best possible show, something real, honest and positive. In Boston, we fell short of that, and I'm truly sorry to everyone who was impacted.”
Jane's Addiction also issued its own statement regarding the altercation, which ultimately led to the group’s remaining members filing a lawsuit against Perry alleging assault, battery, intentional infliction of emotional distress, negligence, breach of fiduciary duty, and breach of contract.
“Today we are here to announce that we have come together one last time to resolve our differences, so that the legacy of Jane's Addiction will remain the work the four of us created together,” the band wrote, signaling that the group would not move forward with Perry. “We now look forward to the future as we embark on our separate musical and creative endeavors.”
