Indio (United States) (AFP) โ Megan Thee Stallion corralled thousands of hotties to Coachellaโs main stage Saturday night,ย gyrating her way through one of the weekendโs most anticipated sets.
โCoachella. Yโall ready hotties?โ she exclaimed to a cascade of cheers to open her debut performance at one of the worldโs most-watched music festivals, stepping out in a futuristic silver thong bodysuit with a molded corset.
The 27-year-old gave a retrospective of her hits including โBig Ole Freakโ and โBody,โ but instead of her razor-sharp flow โ which at times lagged behind the backing track โ it was her dance moves made possible by impossibly strong thighs that stole the show.
โI walk and I talk like a pimp โcuz I am,โ the Grammy-winning rapper born Megan Pete in Houston spit out as she strutted across the stage.
โWhere my hot girls at!โ she shouted to the crowd, using the nickname she flirtatiously bestowed upon her devoted fans after crowning 2019 โhot girl summerโ and exploding to fame.
Locks flowing and twerks popping even harder than her bars, Megan made good on her queen of hotties crown, getting suggestive with the mic and drawing screams with dance moves miming oral sex.
โLadies if you love your body make someโฆ noise,โ she shouted in one of her many expletive-laden proclamations of the night.

She confused fans midway through by disappearing for upwards of five minutes โ but returned in another thong bodysuit, this time giving harness vibes with oblique-baring cutouts, paired with disco-style knee-high turquoise boots.
โThis my first time at Coachella, and Iโm ready to turnโฆ up with yโall!โ she exclaimed. โWe gonna turn thisโฆ up like itโs 2019 real quick.โ
Megan then commanded her legions of fans to hold up their cell phone lights, before launching into her latest collaboration with Dua Lipa, โSweetest Pie.โ
And as she promised earlier this month, the rapper dropped a new track thatโs as of now without an official name.
But if the lyrics, and the dance moves, have anything to do with the title โ it might be something along the lines of โDick Donโt Run Me,โ an empowerment anthem disparaging ex-lovers.
โThank you to theโฆ hotties, because without theโฆ hotties, there would be noโฆ hot girl culture,โ Meg yelled.
Among her closers was โSavage,โ her single off the nine-song EP โSugaโ that caught fire on TikTok before she did a remix with Beyonce that was among 2020โs smash hits despite its release during the brutal first US wave of the pandemic.
Megan Thee Stallion was the final act before headliner Billie Eilish, leaving the stage as her set threw up fire imagery behind her.
Declaring herself forever โhot girl coach,โ she had a few final words for the haters.
โIf you ainโt know about me, ask your boo about me,โ said Meg.
