GloRilla is still reeling in excitement over her incredible opportunity to head out to Washington, D.C., and meet President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris at the White House.
The 24-year-old rapper opened up about the experience on a new episode of Tamron Hall, where the host asked how she reacted to the news from her team that she’d be heading to the White House. “I always be thinking they’re lying for some reason. Every time they tell me something good, I’m like, ‘This can’t be real.’ I still haven’t accepted the reality of it,” she shared. “The moment I was walking through security and everything, it was like, ‘Oh my God, I’m here, I’m here, I’m here, I’m here.’ Once I got in, it was a beautiful feeling. I never would have expected to be in the White House.”
In her Instagram post from the White House last month, Glo is seen taking a selfie video with Biden, exclaiming, “Yeah, Joe!” The President then sweetly replies, “Not ‘Yeah, Joe.’ Yeah, you!”

“It was so cool, I was geeked,” the “Tomorrow 2” rapper told CNN after the event. “Everybody don’t get to meet the President and the Vice President. […] I never thought in a million years I’d be in the White House. Then, I was in the White House and got to meet the President and Vice President? I was like, ‘Now, they can’t mess with me!’”
