Megan Thee Stallion Surprises the Crowd at Beyoncé’s Hometown Renaissance Show in Houston

Beyoncé’s hometown show in Houston was the wildest renaissance tour date yet.

The superstar, 42, brought his Renaissance World Tour to Houston on Saturday, with Megan Thee Stallion – who also hails from the Texas city – hitting the stage as a special guest.

Fans captured the surprise appearance, in which the two performed their collaboration “Savage (Remix).”

“I love you queen,” Beyoncé told Megan in a video shared on X, formerly known as Twitter. In response, the rapper declared, “I love you, Beyoncé.”

The concert in Houston marked the first time the “Break My Soul” singer and Megan, 28, performed the 2020 hit live together.

Last week, the music festival announced in a post on X (formerly known as Twitter) that the hip-hop star had to pull out “due to an unforeseen scheduling conflict.”

Megan Thee Stallion (whose real name is Megan Pete) first released “Savage” on her Scabies EP in March 2020. After the song went viral on TikTok, Beyoncé jumped on board to remix it in late April of that year. The collaboration propelled the song to even greater success — reaching No. 1 on the Hot 100 and earning Best Rap Song by a Duo and Best Rap Performance at the 2021 Grammy Awards.

That was my goal. I love her work ethic, I love the way she is, I love the way she carries herself.”

She added: “Thank you Beyoncé for your encouraging words all the time.”

Beyoncé also praised the rap star, saying: “I’m proud of you. I want to give my love to Megan quickly. I respect you so much.”

Megan Thee Stallion has spoken again about working with the 32-time Grammy winner EllaMay 2023 edition.

She said: “I didn’t believe she would actually do it, but she did, and I was blown away. I called my grandmother. Me and my manager were in my living room going crazy.”
