The WNBA All-Star Game just got hotter—and we’re not talking about the competition on the court. Rap superstar GloRilla is set to headline the halftime performance at the 2025 AT&T WNBA All-Star Game on Saturday, July 19 at Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis, and fans are already losing it.
The announcement came with a burst of excitement from the league and GloRilla herself, whose rise in hip-hop has been nothing short of meteoric.
“You know I’m always going to represent the ladies, and I’m excited to bring that BIG GLO energy to the WNBA All-Star stage,” she said in a statement.
“This one is for the women and athletes who go hard every single day.”
Big Names, Big Energy: Women Taking Over All-Star Weekend
Joining GloRilla on the star-studded lineup is multi-platinum rapper BIA, who will perform her hit single “WE ON GO” as part of the pre-game show. Both performances will air on ABC’s live broadcast, making this one of the most hyped WNBA All-Star Games yet.
“It’s all about powerful women doing what they do best, and I’m honored to be part of that energy,” BIA shared, matching GloRilla’s enthusiasm for the historic event.
This year’s All-Star Weekend is all about empowering women and celebrating athleticism, artistry, and culture in one epic mashup.
GloRilla’s Glow-Up: From “FNF” to WNBA Spotlight
Since her breakout moment with 2022’s viral hit “FNF (Let’s Go)”, GloRilla has been on fire. She’s dominated charts with four Billboard Hot 100 Top 30 hits, including “Yeah Glo!” and “TGIF.”
2024 cemented her status as one of the hottest names in rap:
- ???? Named Billboard’s Hottest Female Rapper of 2024
- ???? Honored with the Powerhouse Award at Billboard’s Women in Music gala

“GloRilla represents confidence, raw talent, and the kind of energy the WNBA embodies,” one fan tweeted after the halftime announcement.
All-Star Weekend: Already Breaking Records
While the buzz around GloRilla and BIA is huge, the athletes aren’t being overshadowed. The New York Liberty’s Sabrina Ionescu lit up the court with a jaw-dropping win in the 3-point shootout, and Natasha Cloud showed her skills by snagging the title in the Skills Challenge.
Now, all eyes are on the main event: the 2025 WNBA All-Star Game, airing live on ABC, Disney+, and ESPN+ at 8:30 p.m. ET.
