DJ Spinderella Says Salt-N-Pepa Was Warned They’d Be Arrested for Performing This Hit Song

DJ Spinderella said Salt-N-Pepa was warned the group would be arrested if they performed "Push It" at certain venues. Here's why.

Salt-N-Pepa’s “Push It” is a fan-favorite across the globe, but DJ Spinderella recalls how the “Let’s Talk About Sex” crew was nearly arrested for performing the top 20 Billboard Hot 100 hit in certain venues. Spinderella recently joined Drink Champs for an episode, during which she claimed that venue executives threatened to arrest Salt-N-Pepa if they performed “Push It,” and it’s due to what they perceived were sexually explicit lyrics. DJ Spinderella attends the BET Hip Hop Awards 2023 at Cobb Energy Performing Arts Center on Oct. 3, 2023 in Atlanta.
