GloRilla Flips Mugshot Into Merch Following Arrest

Just days after surrendering to police on July 22 and posting bond, Memphis rapper GloRilla is now selling black T‑shirts emblazoned with her own mugshot. It’s a striking act of reclamation, turning what might’ve been a humiliating moment into a bold fashion statement. The shirts are priced at $40 and are available for pre‑order on her official website, with shipping expected in five to six weeks

For fans eager to get their hands on one immediately, there’s no need to wait—she was selling the mugshot shirts at her merch table during the “GloRilla’s Glo Bash” concert held in her hometown at the FedEx Forum in Memphis

The mugshot stems from an incident at her Georgia residence. While she was away performing at the WNBA All‑Star Game, her home was burglarized. Officers responding to the burglary found a “significant amount” of marijuana and a controlled substance in plain view, which led to her arrest on felony drug charges. She later turned herself in and secured release on a $22,260 bond

On social media, GloRilla wasn’t silent—she denounced the situation, lamenting that despite her home being invaded, law enforcement zeroed in on her cannabis, not the burglars. “Long story short my house gets home invaded and I’m the only one that gets arrested,” she wrote

This move speaks volumes about her brand savvy—embracing controversy to her advantage, she’s turning adversity into empowerment and, yes, profit.
