Before she faced a huge and rowdy crowd at an afterparty, she simply smiled at the latest fan to shoot their shot.

Ice Spice recently turned down a fan who tried to give the "Munch" hitmaker a bouquet of roses. While the poor guy's gotta feel some type of way about it, at least he got so close to the rapper in the first place. Moreover, she gave a short performance at the Tia Adeola x Bowery Showroom NYFW afterparty at Brooklyn's Williamsburg Hotel Ballroom on Saturday (February 11). As she walked inside the venue, a fan practically got on their knees and became the latest to try with the 23-year-old. However, she simply gave him a smile, said something unintelligible, and kept on walking in the viral clip.

Even thought she laughed at the exchange, hopefully it was more out of kindness than malice. Still, it didn't prepare her for the monsoon of fans that she faced in that ballroom. In fact, things got so crowded that she had to stop her performance and ask people to back up. While the DJ and scant security tried to help, Spice herself had to push some people off. It's also not the first controversial moment to happen at nightclubs with dominant female rappers this week. Funny how specific news trends can get, huh? Moreover, GloRilla recently addressed fans who threw water at her at an Oakland club where they thought she was going to perform. However, she and the event promoter made it clear that some issues remained unresolved.

Meanwhile, hip-hop-related comedian Druski recently made his own play on the Bronx native to controversial results. While they had an Instagram Live session together, he asked Spice to DM him her number. After she plugged her then-new track "In Ha Mood" and left the call, Druski's comments took many aback. "We don’t give a f**k about that song. B***h, DM me,” he laughed. “I don’t give a f**k about that song, baby girl. DM me. Um, yeah. Yeah, we’ll see.” Later, when talking to Shannon Sharpe, he clarified some of his feelings.

"I was trying to get with Ice Spice," he told Shannon Sharpe, "I still haven't got the chance. I tried, I didn't get her number. Like I said, you gotta let it come to you. At the end of the day, I'm the prize." Whether you think he has a chance or not, come back to HNHH for the latest on Ice Spice.
