GloRilla charged with possession after police respond to her home to investigate burglary
Police responded to the Forsyth County residence of GloRilla, whose name is Gloria Woods, on Saturday after receiving a report that three suspects had entered the home and 'were in the process of stealing items when an armed occupant fired at the intruders,' Stacie Miller, public information officer for the Forsyth County Sheriff's Department told CNN in a statement Thursday.
The suspects fled the scene and no injuries were reported, according to the statement.
Detectives from the Major Crimes and Crime Scene Unit responded to the scene, where they 'detected a strong odor consistent with illegal narcotics,' resulting in the Lanier Regional Drug Task Force being called to the residence.
After task force agents secured a search warrant for the home, 'a significant amount of marijuana was discovered in plain view inside the master bedroom closet,' the statement read.
GloRilla was not present during the burglary, the investigation of which remains ongoing.
She was subsequently charged with felony possession of marijuana and possession of schedule 1 controlled substance and voluntarily turned herself in to the Forsyth County Jail on Tuesday. The rapper was released the same day after posting bond.
CNN has reached out to representatives for GloRilla for comment.
'The homeowner is a victim of a serious crime, and we are committed to bringing the suspects to justice,' said Sheriff Ron Freeman in reference to the burglary. 'At the same time, we must continue to uphold and enforce the law in all aspects of this case.'
Hailing from Memphis, GloRilla is a rising star among the rap community and is best known for her viral 2022 hit 'F.N.F. (Let's Go),' as well as collaborations with Cardi B on 'Tomorrow 2' and with Megan Thee Stallion on 'Wanna Be.'

Elvis Presley's Final Moments With Linda Thompson Revealed
Elvis Presley's Final Moments With Linda Thompson Revealed originally appeared on Parade. Elvis Presley's longtime girlfriend, Linda Thompson, shared a heartfelt video reflecting on the last time she saw the King of Rock and Roll alive. She recalled the deep bond they shared while also revealing how he 'lied through his teeth' during a pivotal moment in their relationship. Despite her heartbreak, Thompson's words offered a glimpse into the love and complexity that defined their long union. The Grammy-nominated lyricist reposted a TikTok video clip to Instagram, where she spoke of the last time she saw the King of Rock and Roll alive. She shared his last words to her in November 1976. "The last time I saw Elvis alive, he was playing the Cow Palace in San Francisco," she began. During the trip, the entertainer asked Thompson if she wanted to return to Memphis to visit her family, saying he brought his private plane for her to fly back home. "I responded, 'Really? You brought the plane in just for me? Are you sure you didn't bring in another girl from Memphis?'" she questioned.

I remember looking into his gorgeous blue eyes and he was so sincere and just lying through his teeth." It was shortly after that conversation that Thompson decided she would leave her life with Presley at Graceland behind. She admitted that Presley was likely "shocked and hurt" at her departure, but ultimately, she believes he understood. She shared further details in the post's caption. "I was just telling this story last night at dinner to a couple of friends and co-writers from Nashville! Elvis finished by saying, 'And no matter what you may hear or read, I love you and I don't love anybody else.'" She continued, "He even had tears in his eyes as he professed that love. There was, however, another girl in a holding pattern on the floor below in our hotel, waiting to get the OK to come up. Elvis was not monogamous in any of his relationships." Shortly after Thompson left Graceland for good, Presley began a relationship with Ginger Alden. In January 1977, he and Alden became engaged after two months of dating. Elvis Presley died in August 1977. He was 42.

Will Hannah Montana hit the road in 2026? Miley Cyrus teases show's 20th anniversary plans
Miley Cyrus is down for a Hannah Montanaissance. So, will fans get to see their favorite fictional pop star in concert? The Grammy-winning singer, who broke out in the 2000s playing teen idol Hannah Montana on the Disney Channel sitcom of the same name, reflected on the series' upcoming 20th anniversary in a July 22 interview on SiriusXM. "Hannah Montana," which starred Cyrus alongside Emily Osment, Mitchel Musso and father Billy Ray Cyrus, debuted in March 2006. "I want to design something really, really special for it because it really was the beginning of all of this," Cyrus, 32, said. "Without Hannah, there wouldn't really be this me. "It's crazy to think that I started as a character that I thought was going to be impossible to shed, and now that's something that when I walk into a space, it's looked at as this sense of kind of, like, nostalgia or something that you have from your childhood. ... So, that's exciting to get to celebrate that." The Emmy-nominated series, which centered on the double life of schoolgirl Miley Stewart and her stage persona Hannah, launched Cyrus to IRL music stardom. The show spawned multiple platinum-selling soundtracks, as well as the headlining Best of Both Worlds Tour, which grossed over $54 million. The teen comedy also served as a vehicle for Cyrus' burgeoning pop music career. Her debut album, 2007's "Meet Miley Cyrus," was released as a double album alongside the "Hannah Montana 2" soundtrack. In August 2024, Cyrus and Hannah made Disney history when Cyrus was inducted into the Disney Legends hall of fame, becoming the youngest person to receive the honor. During her emotional acceptance speech, Cyrus joked that "there was a buzz in that Burbank Disney office, where it's rumored that they create all of us Disney Kids." "Much has changed since that day, but at the same time, nothing has changed at all," Cyrus added. "I stand here still proud to have been in 'Hannah Montana.' This award is dedicated to Hannah and all of her amazing, loyal fans. To quote the legend herself, 'This is the life.' " Miley Cyrus makes Disney history: 'Hannah Montana' star becomes youngest Disney Legend Will there be a Hannah Montana tour in 2026? So far, Cyrus has not announced plans to embark on a concert tour for the "Hannah Montana" 20th anniversary. While exact anniversary plans remain under wraps, a tour seems unlikely, given Cyrus' recent comments on touring. During a May 2023 interview with British Vogue, Cyrus — whose last world tour was the 2014 Bangerz Tour — said she had no desire to go on tour. The "Something Beautiful" singer added that while she enjoys performing for her friends, "singing for hundreds of thousands of people isn't really the thing that I love." "There's no connection. There's no safety," Cyrus explained. "It's also not natural. It's so isolating because if you're in front of 100,000 people, then you are alone." 'It's so isolating': Miley Cyrus says she 'can't' tour any longer What has Miley Cyrus said about 'Hannah Montana' role? Over the years, Cyrus has shared her conflicting feelings about her "Hannah Montana" character and the emotional complications that came with early fame. During a March 2021 interview on "Rock This with Allison Hagendorf," the actress-singer described her childhood stardom as a time that made her feel inadequate when she wasn't in character, revealing she created a "characterized version" of herself to receive attention. "Talk about an identity crisis. ... The concept of the show is that when you're this character (and) when you have this alter ego, you're valuable," Cyrus said at the time. "And then the concept was that when I looked like myself, when I didn't have the wig on anymore, that no one cared about me." Miley Cyrus pays tribute to 'alter ego' Hannah Montana for show's anniversary That same month, Cyrus embraced the character's pop culture legacy in a social media tribute for the "Hannah Montana" series' 15th anniversary. "We've shared many firsts. A lot of lasts. Ups. Downs. Tears (and) laughs," Cyrus wrote to her TV alter ego. "You have all my love (and) upmost gratitude," Cyrus continued. "I am indebted not only to you Hannah but to any (and) everyone who believed in me from the beginning. You all have my loyalty (and) deepest appreciation until the end. With all sincerity I say thank you!" Contributing: Jenna Ryu, Elise Brisco, Bryan Alexander and Naledi Ushe, USA TODAY
