Overview
Megan Thee Stallion was transported to a local hospital after feeling very ill during Tuesday night's performance of Moulin Rouge! The Musical, her representative Didier Morais said.
Doctors identified extreme exhaustion, dehydration, vasoconstriction and low metabolic levels as the cause of her symptoms, and her representative said she has been treated, discharged and is resting.
On social media she wrote that she had been 'running on empty,' thought she was going to faint, and said she would take a day to rest and reset.
She made her Broadway debut on March 24, 2026, is 31 years old, won three Grammy awards in 2021, and is scheduled to perform in Moulin Rouge! through May 17 while the show is set to close July 26.
The production's website and her representatives said she will not appear in Wednesday's performances and plans to resume the role of Zidler on Thursday.
