GloRilla Breaks Silence on Arrest for Alleged Felony Drug Possession After Burglary Attempt
GloRilla is speaking out after being arrested on felony drug charges following a burglary attempt in her Georgia home.
The 25-year-old rapper, whose real name is Gloria Hallelujah Woods, voluntarily turned herself in to the Forsyth County Jail on Tuesday, July 22, after police allegedly discovered marijuana and a controlled substance while responding to a July 20 burglary attempt that she was not present for, according to a statement provided to PEOPLE by the Forsyth County Sheriff's Office.
'CRAZY [!!] My House got Home Invaded Saturday While I was in Indianapolis performing for the WNBA all star game & instead of Focusing on finding the Suspects , they focus on some cannabis,' the 'Wanna Be' artist tweeted on Thursday, July 24.
Next, she listed a three-point breakdown of the events from her perspective.
'1. So no I wasn't busted 2. My house got robbed 3. I wasn't home,' GloRilla wrote.
She continued, 'Long story short my house gets home invaded and Im the only one that gets arrested.'
The 'All Dere' rapper concluded, 'So that's tea,' adding a shrugging emoji.
A rep for GloRilla did not immediately respond to PEOPLE's request for comment.
A call for "a burglary in progress' came in at 1:30 a.m. local time, per the Forsyth County Sheriff's Office statement.
"It was reported that three suspects had entered the home and were in the process of stealing items when an armed occupant fired at the intruders," the police statement read. "The suspects fled the scene, and it does not appear that any of them were struck. No injuries were reported among the home's occupants."
No suspects were found following "a thorough investigation," however, police said, "While on scene, deputies detected a strong odor consistent with illegal narcotics. As a result, the Lanier Regional Drug Task Force was contacted and responded to the residence."
Police obtained a search warrant and reported finding "a significant amount of marijuana" in GloRilla's master bedroom closet.
As a result, the Memphis native was charged with Felony Possession of Marijuana and Possession of schedule one controlled substance. After voluntarily turning herself into custody, GloRilla was released on a $22,260 bond.
Following her tweet addressing the arrest, the 'TGIF' rapper returned to social media with a seemingly subtle message.
'Anyways, Dey done let da LEOS ina door 😌🦁♌️,' GloRilla captioned a two-photo Instagram carousel mentioning her zodiac sign ahead of her July 28 birthday.

ICE holding Tunisian man without proper medical help in downtown L.A., family says
A Tunisian man is enduring 'inhumane conditions' inside the Federal Building in downtown Los Angeles after U.S. immigration authorities arrested him this month, his family says. Rami Othmane was held July 13 while driving to the grocery store. His wife, Dr. Wafaa Alrashid, said agents blocked Othmane's car and did not identify themselves or present a warrant before detaining him. Alrashid, chief of medical staff at Huntington Hospital in Pasadena, was on FaceTime with her husband during the incident. The couple married on March 5, 2024, and filed an I-130 petition last month to qualify their relationship status to obtain Orthmane's green card. Alrashid said Othmane, whose Instagram account says he is a singer and music producer, was in the country legally, adding that he suffers from chronic pain and an untreated tumor. Since his arrest, Othmane has been kept in the Federal Building — sleeping on a cold floor with no bedding, hygiene supplies or privacy, his wife said. 'This is not just an immigration issue — this is a human rights crisis,' Alrashid said in a statement. 'My husband has been subjected to 12 days of inhumane treatment in a federal building. He is not a criminal. He is a kind, peaceful man with an open immigration petition.' Alrashid said in a post to Instagram that the conditions are not livable, adding detainees are fed at random times and are expected to share an open toilet. On Friday, the National Day Laborer Organizing Network, an advocacy group based in Pasadena, organized a protest vigil outside the federal detention facility in downtown L.A., known as B-18, to demand Othmane's release. 'Like all immigrants — like all human beings — he deserves to be treated with decency and respect and to receive due process of the law. It appears that these basic rights are being cruelly denied him,' the organization said in a statement Friday. 'We demand an end to the lawless campaign of raids and arrests that has led to gross injustices like the imprisonment of our friend Rami, and so many others.'

PGA Tour Vet Goes Unrecognized In 'Undercover' Club Fitting At Golf Store
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. The 3M Open was heating up at TPC Twin Cities entering Day 3. Thorbjørn Olesen led the pack with a score of 14-under-par, while Jake Knapp started the day just one stroke behind him. However, amid all the score discussions, arguably the week's most viral moment came outside the ropes, away from the course even, at Golf Galaxy store in Blaine, Minnesota. PGA Tour pro Zac Blair shares hilarious incident Zac Blair, who got into the 3M Open field as a late alternate on Wednesday, posted a hilarious video to Instagram that's quickly become a fan favorite. With the course closed due to storms on Wednesday, Blair headed to Golf Galaxy for a casual club fitting, but as an "undercover". He got dressed in sweats, a blue T-shirt and let the staff treat him like any weekend golfer. OAKMONT, PENNSYLVANIA - JUNE 12: Zac Blair of the United States hits a tee shot on the 10th hole during the first round of the 125th U.S. OPEN at Oakmont Country Club on June 12,... OAKMONT, PENNSYLVANIA - JUNE 12: Zac Blair of the United States hits a tee shot on the 10th hole during the first round of the 125th U.S. OPEN at Oakmont Country Club on June 12, 2025 in Oakmont, Pennsylvania. (Photo by) More Getty Images Nic, the fitter, helped Blair but had no idea he was working with a Tour pro who's earned nearly $8 million in career prize money. When Blair requested a Titleist driver, Nic told him to "get his shoulders loose" and hit a few shots so they could measure his clubhead speed. The 34-year-old, enjoying the moment, agreed, swung a few pro shots and acted along. At one point, Blair's friend, who was recording the whole incident, asked Nic to guess the Tour pro's handicap. "I'll say probably one ... a regular one," Nic replied as shown in the video posted on Blair's Instagram handle. "I'm a 2.5 so," he added. "So you think he's better than you?" the friend questioned further. "Umm no," Nic replied with confidence. The moment was pure comedy. Blair is known as one of the shortest hitters on Tour. After a few swings, Nic fitted him with a driver that Blair later used to shoot a bogey-free 64 in Round 1 and 72 on Day 2 at the 3M Open. That was a good enough score to make the cut and head into the weekend at 6-under. Blair's Instagram caption made it clear the video wasn't meant to mock anyone. In fact, he praised Nic's knowledge and fitting skills. "Pt. 2 had to head back to golf galaxy and scoop that driver @nicholasurban1988 got me fitted in! Thanks again for putting up with us and pumped to have him out watching at the 3m this week!" he captioned his next post by sharing a video of meeting the fitter again and thanking him. This isn't Blair's first brush with a club-fitting incident The Salt Lake City, Utah, native faced a similar situation in Canada two years ago when his driver broke down mid-round. At that time, all the equipment trucks had left the tournament, and he had to scramble to find a replacement, again, without being recognized. The 34-year-old turned pro in 2014 and played college golf at BYU. Though he's still chasing his first PGA Tour win, he's had notable finishes, including a T4 at Zurich Classic last year, T2 at the 2023 Travelers Championship. He also made headlines during U.S. Open week last month with a 120-yard putt at Oakmont that went viral. As of this week, Blair entered the weekend round at TPC Twin 8 shots behind the leader.

Taylor Swift And Travis Kelce Are Instagram Official
Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are finally Instagram official, people! On Friday, the Kansas City Chiefs' tight end posted photos of him and Taylor together for the very first time on his social media. On July 25, on Instagram, he wrote, "Had some adventures this offseason, kept it 💯." In the photos, Taylor and Travis are full-on matching for an adorable date night. If you look super close, you can notice that Travis has Taylor as his cellphone lock screen. Eek! In the other photos, Tayvis are cozied up in winter gear as they hang out on an ice rink. The "Shake It Off" singer and Travis have apparently been spending lots of time together this year, and based on the pictures, Travis' family — his parents Donna and Ed, and his brother Jason have been part of the adventure as well. In other photos, they're pictured with their friends. And I'm living for these new pictures. We finally got an upgrade from all those random paparazzi and football game photos. The pair first sparked dating rumors in September 2023 after Taylor was spotted at several Chiefs' games. They seemingly confirmed their relationship the next month when they stepped out holding hands at a Saturday Night Live afterparty. And since they've always been randomly spotted together somewhere, but the official photos were scarce. And now, we have Instagram photos! The photos are going viral, and the people are losing their minds. With this news, it's time for me to play the 27-hour, 404 song "Taylor Swift Complete Collection" Spotify playlist on shuffle while I clean my house.
