“She’s a black bi*ch, born in the slums, how can she be worthy of international competition…” At the 2025 Glamour Women of the Year Awards ceremony, due to a technical error from the post-production team, Rachel Zegler’s microphone was not turned off, her loud voice was recorded, and she made heavy sarcastic remarks about Angel Reese. The people around were noisy, not knowing where the sound came from, they were frantically searching. Rachel trembled, she tried to force a smile to prove that it was not her, but before she could calm down, she was exposed by a staff member, the crowd turned their eyes to her, Rachel tried to avoid and explain. Less than 5 hours after the event ended, American basketball fans sent harsh criticism to the event, forcing the organizers to make an unprecedented decision in the entertainment industry, causing Rachel’s career to fall into a dead end.

Hollywood had barely cooled down from the awards season when a media shock suddenly erupted at the Glamour Women of the Year 2025 honoring night. Actress Rachel Zegler – once hailed as a new generation icon – was accused of making sarcastic remarks aimed at basketball player Angel Reese right on stage, while her microphone was still on!

According to reports from many reporters present at the event, the incident happened right after Zegler finished her speech. When the stage lights went out and the program changed scenes, her shoulder microphone was still on, accidentally emitting private words. This sound echoed clearly through the technical system, causing the entire production crew to fall into chaos.

An inside source recounted: “No one understood what was going on. They just heard Rachel’s voice in the middle of the auditorium, and everyone started looking around.”

The incident quickly went viral when a clip from a backstage camera was leaked. Although the audio was not completely clear, many people claimed they heard Rachel’s voice mentioning Angel Reese’s name in a “disrespectful” tone. Within hours, the keyword “RachelZeglerMicLeak” climbed straight to the top of social networks.

The organizers were forced to issue an urgent statement, apologizing for a “serious technical error” and affirming that an investigation was underway. Rachel Zegler’s representative also immediately issued a statement: “Rachel absolutely did not intend to offend anyone. This was an unfortunate misunderstanding from edited audio clips.”

However, public opinion was not easily appeased. A series of Angel Reese fans called for a boycott of Zegler, while brands that cooperated with her began to “review contracts.” A media expert in Los Angeles commented: “Just a few seconds of audio – even if unconfirmed – is enough to threaten an entire career.”

Meanwhile, Angel Reese remained silent. She didn’t post anything, but fans noticed she had unfollowed Rachel Zegler on social media. That small move alone was enough to set the internet ablaze.

Tonight, Hollywood wasn’t talking about fashion, it wasn’t talking about winning… it was talking about the most disastrous “microphone leak” in awards show history.

A technical error – or a moment of carelessness – pushed Rachel Zegler from the brightest star of the red carpet to the depths of controversy.

And perhaps, only time will tell: Can she get back up… or is this the end of her halo?
