On April 16, boxer Adrien Broner attempted to make a move on rapper Coi Leray during her Instagram Live, but his efforts were unsuccessful. Broner, who is set to face Blair Cobbs in Miami on May 31, extended an invitation to Leray to attend his fight and commented, “I’m on your body!” However, Leray quickly dismissed his advances, stating, “Trying to bag me on Instagram Live is crazy. Like, deada’. Get the fk on, okay?” She added, “I’m not interested. That’s fking corny. The f**k are we doing here?” before ending the Live and urging viewers to check out the cover for her upcoming single, “Can’t Come Back.”
Broner later took the rejection in stride, joking about the incident on his Instagram Story and calling himself a “marketing genius.” Meanwhile, Leray appears to be gearing up for a big year, having performed at Coachella and teamed up with G-Eazy and Kaliii for “Femme Fatale” earlier this month.

In 2023, Leray released COI and Blue Moon, her final projects under Republic Records, which contained standout cuts like “Wicked Butterflies” and “Isabel Marant,” in which she name-dropped ex-boyfriend Trippie Redd.
The incident sparked mixed reactions from fans, with some labeling Leray “corny” and others poking fun at Broner. However, Broner clarified his intentions through an Instagram Story, stating that his approach to Leray was a marketing strategy for his upcoming fight.
Despite the public reaction, Leray remains focused on her music career and is expected to release her next single, “Can’t Come Back,” this Friday (April 19).
