In early July, the Houston Hottie took the stage at the Essence Festival in New Orleans. She made her way over to NOLA for her performance and made sure to have her booty out as she twerked to some of her biggest hits including “Simon Says.”
“I’m ready to eat. I’m ready to shake my ass,” Meg said as she hit the stage. “I’m ready to turn up at the muthafuckin’ Essence Festival!
“Okay now ladies, is y’all ready to pop y’all shit right quick? Because like, it’s muthafuckin’ hot girl summer. We not giving n-ggas no second chances! We getting real disrespectful right now.”
She continued: “We feeling ourselves, we loving on ourselves. And just to let you n-ggas know – we don’t need need y’all. We want y’all, but we don’t need y’all!”

In footage of the performance, Megan Thee Stallion encouraged the contestants to give it their all, while Janelle Monáe, who was standing to the side of the stage, cheered them on.
India.Arie caught wind of the video and wasn’t a fan of what she saw, saying that although she has no issues with either women, she didn’t like what their actions represent for the greater audience that’s paying attention.

“i LOVE Janelle AND Meg the way i love us all ~ AND i dont like this moment. Dont bother debating me lol idc and I DO this. for 25 yrs i’ve done THIS. so. read ponder or don’t,” she wrote on social media.
She subsequently doubled down on her stance that the event doesn’t send the right message but clarified that there is no ill will behind what she said.
