Megan Thee Stallion brought the 2024 MTV VMAs to life with a memorable tribute to Britney Spears. However, the rapper’s tribute took an unexpected turn when a slithery co-star demanded more attention than anticipated.
During one of her many costume changes, Megan transformed into Britney Spears, replicating the iconic “I’m A Slave 4 U” performance from the 2001 VMAs. Draped with a live snake, she aimed to channel the unforgettable moment. But things got a bit too real when the reptile became restless.
Visibly uneasy, Megan quickly addressed the situation. “Okay. Okay! Stop the music. I’m just playing,” she exclaimed, clearly nervous. “Come get this snake. I don’t know this snake, this snake don’t know me. Oh my GOD!” she shouted. Once the handler took the snake away, Megan laughed and quipped, “I tried to hold it down for Britney.”

Alongside her hosting duties, Megan also celebrated several nominations. The Houston native snagged two awards, one for Best Trending Video for her hit “Mamushi” and another for Best Art Direction for “BOA.”
In other news, Megan Thee Stallion and NBA star Torrey Craig made their first public appearance together at New York Fashion Week. Photos from the event showed the pair looking stylish while holding hands. Megan rocked a figure-hugging jumpsuit, while Craig opted for a relaxed outfit.
Fans noticed, though, that they didn’t feature each other in their respective social media posts. This sparked a flurry of comments, with fans asking, “girl why you crop that man” and “why he didn’t post the one with Meg.”
Megan Thee Stallion undoubtedly made headlines with her bold tribute to Britney Spears and her emerging relationship with Torrey Craig. From handling snakes on stage to making waves off-stage, Megan continues to captivate her audience.
