Glorilla just turned Coachella into her own personal party! It’s a legendary stage presence, a twerk that broke the internet, and a whole lot of “she meant that” energy! From nervous BET awards performer to Coachella headliner.
That’s what I call a glow-up!
Many reactions are flooding X (formerly Twitter) after the Memphis rapper lit up the Sahara Tent on Friday night with a performance that’s already being called one of the most unforgettable moments of the 2025 Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival.
She didn’t just hit the stage. She demolished it. From a jaw-dropping twerk that had the crowd losing it to a Beyoncé-inspired dance break to a sneak peek of her new single (which boldly samples Keyshia Cole’s “Love”), GloRilla proved that she’s not just here for the vibes. She’s here to take over.
Let’s not forget this is the same GloRilla who once nervously hit the stage at the BET Awards just a few years ago. Fast forward to now, and Sis is commanding the Coachella main stage like she was born under the desert sun.
Draped in a bold black-and-gold bedazzled bodysuit that screamed “main character,” GloRilla strutted out in fishnets and rhinestone-studded sleeves, with her sleek bob catching the lights at every angle. She kicked off the set with fan favorites and viral anthems before hitting the crowd with an unexpected twist, a mashup of her track TGIF with Beyoncé’s Diva choreography, flanked by backup dancers who were every bit as locked in as she was.
But what really set social media on fire? That now-viral twerk moment. As the beat dropped and she threw it back with full force, fans could literally feel the stage shake. The camera zoomed in. The crowd screamed. And just like that, a Coachella moment was born.
Throughout her performance, she paused to connect with fans, flashed a heart with her hands, and looked genuinely emotional. It wasn’t just about hype. It was a full-circle moment. The rapper known for her breakout single F.N.F. back in 2022 is now headlining her first major tour and making Coachella look like her backyard.
