Megan Thee Stallion wowed the crowd at the 2026 Tony Awards
The rapper wore a sheer silver gown to presenting an award at this year's ceremony

Megan Thee Stallion is in the house!
The rapper, 31, appeared at the 2026 Tony Awards on June 7 in New York City in true hottie style.
She performed during the ceremony's opening number as her character Zidler from Moulin Rouge!, taking the stage alongside host Pink and a slew of other Broadway stars. The look featured a black and gold corset and red velvet overcoat, a top hat and tall boots.
A bit later, while presenting the award for Best Performance by an Actress in a Featured Role in a Musical, Megan wore a halter-neck sheer gown with a silver pattern and 3D details on the hips that gave her an exaggerated silhouette.

Meg's Tony Awards appearance follows her Broadway debut as Zidler in Moulin Rouge! earlier this year. The rapper leaned into the role's humor, adding playful asides and earning laughs from the crowd. She also made the part distinctly her own, breaking the fourth wall to shout out the Hotties in the room and peppering in her signature "ahh" ad-lib to bring a modern swagger to the Moulin Rouge! that feels both unexpected and entirely welcome.

She played the role for several weeks before making an early exit following her breakup from Klay Thompson and a health scare during a performance.
"Hotties, my last performance as Zidler in @moulinrougebway will be May 1 ❤️🩹," she wrote in an Instagram post on April 27. "It's been such an honor to be part of thee Moulin Rouge family and I've met so many amazing people in this theater! Y'all work so hard and I have so much respect for the dedication, the stamina, the work ethic, the time and the effort y'all put into the work!"
"I'm so grateful for the cast and crew that made this experience so meaningful," she continued. "And to all the Hotties that showed up or planned to attend, thank you for supporting me during this incredible journey! I LOVE YALL🥹 See you soon 💙."
