SZA BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.
SZA has had quite the eventful week, with both triumphant career moments and a troubling incident at a public meet-and-greet.
The biggest news came when SZA made Grammy history with her deluxe re-release of her album SOS, achieving a nine-song Grammy sweep according to LA 105 and Mad Town Jamz. This is nothing short of historic for the artist, whose full name is Solána Imani Rowe, marking a massive milestone in her career just nine months after dropping the original studio album.
On the entertainment front, SZA had a girl's night out at a Sabrina Carpenter concert in Los Angeles this past week. Elle reports that SZA showed up with Selena Gomez, where she was an interactive part of the show and even got playfully "arrested" by Carpenter for being "so damn beautiful." The photos show SZA in a stunning bright red bustier corset top paired with a baby blue satin skirt, full glam makeup, and layered red necklaces. It's the kind of celebrity friendship moment that fans love to see.
However, the week also took a darker turn when an incident occurred at the Grand National Tour with Kendrick Lamar. According to AOL, SZA was engaged in a meet-and-greet outside State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona on Wednesday, signing autographs and interacting with fans. A bracelet was thrown and hit her in the face. The video that circulated on TikTok showed SZA visibly shocked, pulling back before immediately walking away without saying a word, followed by her security team.
The incident sparked significant outrage on social media, with fans expressing frustration that such behavior discourages artists from holding meet-and-greet events. However, SZA addressed it later through her Instagram Story, reassuring followers that she wasn't actually upset. According to BuzzFeed, she explained that the person who threw the bracelet didn't even realize they had hit her, and she made clear that everything was fine and she held no hard feelings about it.
The week showcases both the heights of SZA's career success and the unfortunate realities of being a major celebrity in the social media age, where one negative moment can quickly overshadow the positive momentum she's building with her Grammy-breaking achievements.
