Rappers Sexyy Red and GloRilla publicly debunked a social media rumor claiming Sexyy Red wanted to be a “sister wife” with GloRilla and NBA player Brandon Ingram. The claim surfaced earlier this week after a widely circulated screenshot appeared to show a comment from Sexyy Red beneath a video of GloRilla dancing beside the New Orleans Pelicans star.
The image, originally shared by a sports-themed social media account, spread across X and Instagram repost pages before the artists responded directly. Both musicians quickly denied the comment was authentic, calling the screenshot fabricated.
Artists respond to viral screenshot
The alleged screenshot showed Sexyy Red commenting, “Bitch let’s be sister wives,” beneath a clip featuring GloRilla and Ingram. As users speculated about the artists’ relationship dynamics, GloRilla shut the conversation down in direct language.
“Dats fake stop playing wit me,” she wrote on X, addressing the viral claim.
Sexyy Red echoed the frustration shortly afterward. She posted, “I wasn’t even gone say nun but this is weird and fake as I don’t even play des kinda games df… & whoever sat there and thought to do dis is hella lame !!”
Their statements made clear the comment had been manufactured using a fake social media image. Several pages removed the post or added context after the artists intervened.
Fan reaction and circulation cleanup
The rumor drew quick reactions from fans, many of whom expressed relief after the clarifications. One comment read, “I’m glad you spoke up because this whole thing is weird. But you already know these weirdos have nothing else to do.” Others criticized the original post for spreading misinformation to chase engagement.
The incident highlights a growing issue across social platforms: fabricated screenshots that imitate verified accounts to suggest relationships or feuds between public figures. The format has become increasingly common amid interest in celebrity social interactions and speculation around personal relationships.
GloRilla and Ingram keep relationship private
GloRilla and Brandon Ingram have been linked in public conversations for months, though neither has confirmed many details. In a recent interview with Complex, GloRilla addressed their connection while emphasizing privacy.
“I’m not gonna speak too much about our relationship because I kind of like our privacy … We don’t really be too much in the public,” she said. When asked who initiated contact, she responded, “Him!”
Her comments signal a firm boundary around private matters, which may explain why the viral screenshot struck a nerve with both artists.
Rumor rejected, focus shifts back to music
With both musicians actively managing rising fame and public attention, the denial seeks to redirect the narrative back to their work rather than online speculation. Both artists continue to release new music and perform, while Ingram remains focused on the NBA season.
The episode serves as another reminder to approach viral posts with skepticism and verify sources before amplifying claims.
