Cardi B Gushes Over Megan Thee Stallion’s Final Show
Broadway lovers went wild when Megan Thee Stallion first announced she would join the cast of “Moulin Rouge.” Her contract initially ran through May 17, but she sadly cut her run short after her public breakup with NBA star Klay Thompson.
In honor of the final bow, Cardi B rushed to the Al Hirschfeld Theatre to see her friend shine.
“I went to see Meg on Broadway. I was a little sad because I tried my best to be on time today, but I had so many things to do. But we made it to like, 40 minutes before the show ended and it was so, so, so good,” the 33-year-old shared during an Instagram live session.
“I’ve only been to a Broadway play like, one time, when I was 8 years old,” the artist continued. “When you go to school in New York, they’re always going to make you go to a Broadway play. So that was so fun. It was so pretty. I was liking the storyline. And Megan did amazing. She did amazing.”
