Megan Thee Stallion fell ill while performing a Broadway show at the Al Hirschfeld Theater on Tuesday night and was rushed to a New York hospital for medical evaluation.
That’s what happened during the show’s opening episode on Tuesday, when Meghan began to become seriously ill.
Theater officials decided to halt the show, apologized to the audience and asked them to remain in their seats while the situation was dealt with.
Her representative, Didier Moraes, confirmed her hospitalization and said her symptoms were being evaluated at a local medical facility.

The Grammy-winning rapper was just a week ago in Moulin Rouge! She made her stage debut as Zidler in “The Musical”, becoming the first woman to play this role in the play.
Her appearance marked a major moment for the show, which has seen everyone from Boy George to Wayne Brady play the iconic nightclub owner.
Meghan’s brief appearance on stage has already caused a stir, with famous attendees including Queen Latifah and Tiffany Haddish turning out to support her historic debut.
Her performance, which featured her own hit records “Savage” and “Body,” added a fresh hip-hop twist to the classic musical that resonated with audiences during its opening week.
Her engagement was scheduled to last until May 17, 2026, but the hospitalization raised questions about her ability to continue performing the rest of the show.
