Since her breakout in Fall 2022 with "F.N.F." and "Tomorrow 2," GloRilla has been one of, if not the, most beloved female act in the hip-hop industry. Aside from maybe Ice Spice, GloRilla has been atop this category for about half a year now. Because of this, she is rightfully in high demand for live performances.
On January 21, Glo announced she would embark on her first headlining tour from Jan. 27 - Feb. 26. With 15 dates, the "Anyways, Life's Great Tour" would see her hit almost every major U.S. city. The tour also presents openers like Gloss Up, K Carbon, Slimeroni and Aleza. However, trouble arose for Glo on the night of her seventh tour stop in the Bay Area. After her show in San Francisco on Feb. 8, GloRilla was booked to perform at Insomnia nightclub in Oakland. However, the after-party surely encountered some miscommunication. Instead of performing, GloRilla solely made an appearance at the venue for a "walk-through" before leaving. This angered fans, as she then had water thrown all over her while she was exiting the club.
GloRilla Gets Doused
A promoter for the venue whose Instagram name is @conbmusic then took to Instagram to clear up any rumors. He claimed that they paid Glo $30,000 for her appearance. Before the show, he specified that it would be a live performance instead of a hosting or walk-through gig. On his Instagram story the next morning, he continued to pull up the receipts. He posted a screenshot of a contract he had with GloRilla's team, that states she was meant to perform.
GloRilla did not comment on this matter. This also isn't the first time she's been caught up in drama lately. Along with having to deny pregnancy rumors in mid-January, Glo had to beat scammer allegations. During the first week of 2023, her and her team were accused of scamming people for endorsement deals and dance classes. However, Glo claimed that the folks scamming these people were not part of her team. GloRilla still has eight more dates left on her nationwide tour. Hopefully, she will not get herself into any more debacles such as the one in Oakland. Check out the video of the crowd throwing water at GloRilla above.
