Saweetie is seen for first time following split with boyfriend YG as she and Winnie Harlow get glam for Natalia Bryant’s 21st birthday party
Saweetie was seen in public for the first time following news of her split from rapper YG.
The Best Friend hitmaker, 30, appeared in good spirits on Saturday as she arrived at Natalia Bryant’s 21st birthday in West Hollywood.
Sporting a new hairstyle, complete with bangs and long locks, the stunner hit celeb hotspot Ysabel with a group of gorgeous friends, including Winnie Harlow.
Supermodel Harlow looked fierce in a figure-hugging black dress and matching knee-high boots as she wore a chic black cap.
The two beauties were surrounded by A-listers at the event, as Kobe Bryant’s daughter reportedly celebrated with Kelly Rowland, Ciara and Russell Wilson.

The outing comes just days after Saweetie and 33-year-old rapper YG mutually ended their relationship, according to a source close to the situation who spoke to The shadow room.
The two — who were recently spotted together on a December outing in Beverly Hills — “both feel like they’re better off as friends,” she added.
One thing that made them doubt whether their relationship would work was how caught up they both were in their music careers, the source continued.
However, some fans believe YG clapped back at the split news when he took to his Instagram to post a video of himself cuddling with Saweetie and captioned it: ‘Only block, trying to turn’.
Speculation about Saweetie and YG being a couple surfaced when they were spotted near Coachella in April 2023.
To confirm their romance, the lovebirds went public in May of that year and showed lots of affection during a romantic trip to Mexico.
YG highlighted their relationship in July 2023 when he joined his girlfriend on her single Birthday, which was released the same month as her birthday.
Despite their hot and heavy performances, the couple seems to have flown under the radar – at least compared to Saweetie’s previous relationship with Quavo.

Several commenters on the Shade Room post noted that they didn’t even realize the rappers were dating, even though their time together was relatively short and the canceled tour reduced the opportunity for them to publicize their working relationship.
Prior to the brief relationship with YG, Saweetie dated Migos rapper Quavo for about two and a half years.
Born Diamonté Harper on July 2, 1993, Sweetie gained recognition with her breakthrough single Icy Grl in 2017
