In a stunning legal turnaround, A$AP Rocky—whose real name is Rakim Mayers—has been found not guilty. Accused of firing a gun at a former associate outside a Hollywood hotel in 2021, the rapper turned down a plea deal last month that could have landed him a 24-year sentence. As the jurors exited the courtroom, Rocky even took a moment to thank them, saying, “Thank you for saving my life.” It’s a major win that has left his fans and the entertainment world buzzing.
In other news, a Delta flight from Minneapolis to Toronto became the site of a miracle. Delta Flight 4819, carrying 76 passengers and four crew members, caught fire and flipped upside down upon landing at Toronto’s Pearson International Airport on February 17th. Thanks to seatbelt safety, everyone was evacuated without injury—one passenger even recalled seeing people “upside down, hanging like bats” from the cabin ceiling. Sara Nelson, president of the Association of Flight Attendants, praised the role of seatbelts in ensuring everyone’s safe exit, and the FAA confirmed that the Transportation Safety Board of Canada will lead the investigation.
Meanwhile, Memphis rapper Glorilla recently took to Instagram during a gym session to set the record straight on BBL rumors. Addressing the buzz, she clarified, “I didn't get a BBL, but I did get some ‘discipline shots.’ They just flow all the way through my brain. Just a few shots of discipline and that's it. And that's how you gon' get a fat ass. But I ain't get no BBL.” Glorilla’s candid response and dedication to her gym grind have resonated with fans who appreciate her no-nonsense attitude.
