Megan Thee Stallion hospitalized after ‘feeling very ill’ during Broadway show
Megan Thee Stallion was hospitalized after she started feeling sick during Tuesday night’s production of “Moulin Rouge! The Musical.”
A spokesperson for the “WAP” rapper told Page Six in a statement: “During Tuesday night’s production, Megan started feeling very ill and was promptly transported to a local hospital, where her symptoms are currently being evaluated.
“We will share additional updates as more information becomes available,” the rep added.
Additionally, Megan’s hairstylist, Kellon Deryck, took to X, writing: “Everyone say a prayer for Megan, we are all at the hospital.”
On Tuesday, “Breakfast Club” host Loren Lorosa sparked fan concern when she tweeted that the Grammy winner, 31, had abruptly left in the middle of her Broadway performance.
“Came to see Meg The stallion on broadway and that was short lived,” the journalist tweeted.
“The few opening scenes I saw her in she was great on stage! I was excited BUT… They just stopped ‘moulin rouge’ mid show apologized to the audience and said ..’stay inside and seated’ I asked security if we’re safe .. they told us ‘for now, we’ll update you if anything changes,’” Lorosa added.
The former TMZ reporter then shared that Megan’s “Moulin Rouge” character, Zidler, was replaced “by a black male actor.”
“We are safe .. show is continuing on without Megan thee stallion,” she wrote.
Last week, the “Hot Girl Summer” emcee, born Megan Pete, made history as the first female-identifying performer to play Zidler in the show.
At the end of the show, Megan performs a medley of her top hits, including “WAP,” “Savage” and “Body.”
The “Sweetest Pie” emcee will appear in “Moulin Rouge! The Musical” until May 17.
In a statement, Megan previously said that snagging the role in the Broadway show was an “absolute honor.”
“I’ve always believed in pushing myself creatively and theatre is definitely a new opportunity that I’m excited to embrace,” she shared.
“Broadway demands a different level of discipline, preparation, and storytelling, but I’m up for the challenge and can’t wait for the Hotties to see a new side of me,” the hitmaker added.
