Megan Thee Stallion was taken to hospital after becoming unwell during her appearance in Moulin Rouge! The Musical on Tuesday evening.

The Savage hitmaker, whose real name is Megan Pete, began her planned eight week engagement in the production last week, taking on the role of Harold Zidler. The show is currently running at the Al Hirschfeld Theatre in New York City.

However, according to a statement from the production team, Megan had to step away from the show after she began experiencing health issues.

"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," a representative shared. "We will share additional updates as more information becomes available."

Meanwhile, Megan’s hairstylist Kellon Deryck also reached out to fans, asking them to send their support to the rapper.

"Everyone say a prayer for Megan, we are all at the hospital," he wrote.

At this time, spokespersons for the 31 year old performer have not released any new information.

Megan has made history as the first female identifying artist to take on the role of Zidler, a character first played by Danny Burstein, in any global production of Moulin Rouge! The Musical.

"Stepping onto the Broadway stage and joining the Moulin Rouge! The Musical team is an absolute honour," the Hot Girl Summer artist said previously. "I've always believed in pushing myself creatively and theatre is definitely a new opportunity that I'm excited to embrace. Broadway demands a different level of discipline, preparation and storytelling, but I'm up for the challenge and can't wait for the Hotties (her fans) to see a new side of me."

Moulin Rouge! The Musical is scheduled to end its Broadway run on 26 July, bringing a seven year run to a close.

Jessie Reyez has unexpectedly released a brand new EP, featuring five fresh songs along with a collaboration with Stormzy.

The project, titled ‘$TILL PAID’, was released today, March 30, by the Grammy nominated singer songwriter. The release follows the success of her widely praised 2025 album ‘PAID IN MEMORIES’.

Described as a celebratory moment in her career, the EP arrives after her sold out global headline tour in 2025. It also follows the release of her latest poetry collection Words of A Goat Princess II: The People’s Purge, which came out last October.

The new EP includes five songs with titles such as ‘$TAY MOODY’, ‘HOT N $WEET’, ‘$OFA’ and others. It also features a remix of ‘PALO $ANTO’, which Reyez recorded together with Stormzy. You can listen to the EP below.

Reyez released ‘PAID IN MEMORIES’ last year, a 20 track album that included collaborations with Ari Lennox, Big Sean, Miguel, Lil Yachty, 6lack, Lil Wayne and Deyaz.

Prior to that, she released the single ‘Child of Fire’, which appeared on the soundtrack for Netflix’s Rebel Moon. She also recorded her own version of ‘Is This Love’ for the ‘Bob Marley: One Love – Music Inspired by Film’ soundtrack, which went on to win a Grammy for Best Reggae Album.

In 2023, she joined Sam Smith as a support act on the ‘Gloria’ tour and later appeared at multiple arena dates across the United States as part of Jhené Aiko’s ‘The Magic Hour Tour’.

Over the course of her career, Reyez has also written songs for Dua Lipa, Kehlani, LISA from BLACKPINK and Calvin Harris. In 2024, she was honoured with Billboard Canada’s Women in Music Trailblazer Award.

As for Stormzy, the London artist received an honorary doctorate from Cambridge University last summer in recognition of his Stormzy Scholarship programme.

The scholarship programme began in 2018 and initially funded two Black British students each year to study at the university. After HSBC UK joined the initiative, the number increased to 10 students annually. So far, 56 students have benefited from the programme, with both tuition and living costs covered.
