After her high-energy Coachella set lit up the stage two weekends in a row, Megan Thee Stallion took a moment to clear up some confusion—especially around fellow Houston rapper Slim Thug, who assumed her performance meant she had a crush on him. The internet quickly lit up with reactions after Slim Thug went on Instagram suggesting that Megan was sending him a flirtatious message by including two of his songs in her set.

But Megan wasn’t having it. During her second performance at Coachella on April 20, she addressed his comments head-on: “And no, Slim Thug, this don’t mean I want you. I just like your music, babe,” she told the crowd while dancing to “Still Tippin.” That simple statement quickly went viral and shut down the narrative.
Slim Thug had previously gone live on Instagram after her first weekend performance and speculated that Meg dancing to “Thug From Around the Way” and “Still Tippin” was a sign she wanted him. “If that ain’t a ‘I want you, daddy’ call, I don’t know what is,” he said, adding that he believed it was just a matter of time before Megan hit him up while in Houston.
He didn’t stop there either. In his livestream, Slim went on to say, “I probably can’t keep her… she a lot of energy. I can tell from the twerking. I can’t pop a Viagra every day, but we can have a good time.” His comments sparked backlash online, with fans calling his behavior inappropriate and labeling him “thirsty.” Some joked that his energy screamed, “Where my hug at?”

Interestingly, just last summer the two appeared to be on good terms when Megan brought Slim Thug out during her Hot Girl Summer Tour stop in Houston. But after his latest remarks, many are questioning his intentions and urging him to give it a rest.
Despite the drama, Megan is focused on her music. She recently announced her new single “Whenever,” set to drop on April 25, as she steps into a new musical era.
