Megan Thee Stallion Gets Emotional During Tampa Show: Watch
Written by djfrosty on June 10, 2024
While the wins continue to pile up for Megan Thee Stallion, there are still those looking to bring her down. Meg continued her Hot Girl Summer Tour over the weekend, and she appeared to become visibly emotional during her performance inside Tampa’s Amalie Arena in Florida.
Footage surfaced from Saturday night’s (June 8) concert of Megan choking up, with the instrumental to her “Cobra” single booming. In fan-captured video, the three-time Grammy winner shakes her head, fans her face and attempts to pull herself together as the vocals start playing. The serpentine-themed track finds Thee Stallion opening up about her resilience and darkest days.
“Breakin’ down and I had the whole world watchin’/ But the worst part is really who watched me/ Every night I cried, I almost died/ And nobody close tried to stop it,” she raps on the tune.

Earlier on Saturday, Megan Thee Stallion addressed those looking to bring her down while threatening that this will be their last time playing with her.
“It’s really sick how yall go out of the way to hurt me when you see me winning,” she tweeted. “Yall going too far, Fake a– s–t. Just know today was your last day playing with me and I mean it.”
Though Meg didn’t specify who she was directing her comment at, fans believe she was talking about an alleged AI-generated sex tape that has reportedly surfaced on social media.
“Not liking Megan thee Stallion is fine, but creating an AI sextape is just evil and vile,” one person wrote. “People actually enjoy doing shit like this.”
Another added: “They created a fake AI video of Megan Thee Stallion in a ‘sex tape’ i hope she sue all you delusional, twisted sick fans that always take shit to far just bc you don’t like someone….”
Billboard has reached out to Megan Thee Stallion’s reps for comment.
The show goes on for the 29-year-old. Meg’s Hot Girl Summer Tour continues this week with shows in New Orleans before returning to Texas for an Austin date, and then a pair of hometown concerts in Houston at the Toyota Center.
MTS is building momentum heading into her anticipated MEGAN album, which she announced is slated to arrive on June 28.
