Megan Thee Stallion’s ‘Hot Girl Summer’ tour is happening
While you’ll have to wait until May before things kick off, you can rest assured she’s taking over the hottest months of the year with the GloRilla-featured tour running through the end of July.
Today, three-time, Grammy award-winning superstar Megan Thee Stallion formally announced the“Hot Girl Summer Tour,” a 31-city worldwide trek produced by Live Nation that will feature a special Chicas Divertidas VIP section and include domestic stops in the U.S. and international performances across Europe.
Grammy-nominated artist GloRilla will serve as a special guest on the “Hot Girl Summer Tour,” which will mark Megan’s first-ever, headlining tour in arenas across the globe. The Memphis-born hitmaker, who has delivered award-winning hits such as “Tomorrow 2 (feat Cardi B),” “FNF” and “Yeah Glo!,” will join Megan on the domestic leg of the tour.
The tour will kick off on May 14 in Minneapolis and make stops at several major cities across the United States – including New York City, Los Angeles, Chicago, Philadelphia, a hometown performance in Houston and many more – before wrapping up in Las Vegas on June 22. The international leg of Megan’s tour will begin in Glasgow, Scotland on July 4 with additional shows in England, France, Germany and Ireland.
Tickets will be available starting with a Citi presale (details below) beginning on Wednesday, March 20. Additional presales including an artist Hotties presale will run throughout the week ahead of the general onsale beginning on Friday, March 22 at 10am local time on store.megantheestallion.com.

The tour comes after her latest song “HISS” debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 in February. “HISS” also became the first-ever, solo female rap song to debut No. 1 on the Billboard Global 200 and, as a result, Megan now owns the record for the biggest first week for a solo female rap song in history.
The achievement signified Megan’s third No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100, following her other chart-topping hits such as “Savage (Remix)” with Beyoncé and “WAP” with Cardi B. The song was Megan’s second solo release via Hot Girl Productions – her independent music and entertainment entity.
Earlier this year, Megan and Warner Music Group announced an innovative agreement that enabled the Houston native to maintain her independence as a musician while also having access to the music company’s robust global services, ranging from radio promotion to marketing worldwide. Through the unique structure of the agreement, Megan could release her music independently and still have distribution and resources with Warner Music, while having full ownership of her masters and publishing.
It’s the latest in a series of trailblazing milestones for Megan in 2024. Most recently, Planned Parenthood announced plans to honor Megan with the organization’s Catalyst for Change Award at its annual gala in New York City on April 16.

I don’t think I could really put a name on any of the moments, I can never put a cap on anything… I feel like everything is so big, everything is so colossal, everything is like blowing my mind everytime I do it so I’m just excited. I’m just excited to be here, I’m happy to be doing these things. And I’m always shocked, I’m like y’all want me?
Webbys: You shouldn’t be shocked, we all want you! It’s the Hot Girl in you, yes you are the Hot Girl coach!
Webbys: And you gave that to us. How do you feel about this moment on the internet right now with so many hot girls claiming their energy, stepping into their power?
Megan: I did not think that Hot Girl Summer was going to be this much of a thing, and can I curse? I don’t think Hot Girl Shit was going to be this much of a thing, I mean I knew I loved it and I thought it was fly, so to see that so many other girls, so many other women are like yse that’s me I’m living my Hot Girl Summer, I’m like yeah, me too!
Webbys: You’ve put together so many good TikToks when you go to events, so we just wanted to know –

Megan: Anything I want to give away? Actually, probably like 95% done with my new album. I want to tease that for the hotties. I haven’t told them nothing about my album.
Webbys: You heard it first, we’re getting it soon we’re getting it soon. You are our Webby Artist of the Year - so last question, what does that mean for you?
Megan: It means that I must be doing something right and a lot of people want to watch me.

1. Megan Thee Stallion Tells Apple Music About ’Something For Thee Hotties’, That It’s A Holiday Gift For Her Fans and That A New Album Is Coming Next Year…
It is literally something for the hotties. So it's all the freestyles that are recent over original beats. That the hotties have been asking me to put on streaming platforms. And it's just a sprinkle of some new things. So I'm working on two albums, right? So I'm just recording a bunch of music. And things that didn't seem like they started fitting on the project that I know I'm going to release next year, I'm like, okay. It sounds like these songs go more cohesive together. This is one of the projects. So the two albums that I'm working on, Something For Thee Hotties, and y'all know I'm not about to tell y'all the name of the second album, I have been recording songs for a long time. And I would sit on them and I would be like, okay, I'm not going to use it for this project, I'm going to use it for the next project. But then me and Farris, my manager, my brother, we sitting there listening to the songs and he's like, "Nah, the hotties got to get this because I know they hungry for something right now." So let me just put it all on Something For The Hotties. This is my gift to them for Halloween, for Christmas, for Thanksgiving, y'all better be turning up for the rest of the year. I know y'all going to love it.
I'm having a really good time making music right now because I'm not rushing myself. I feel like I work every single day. So half the time I'm trying to squeeze in writing lyrics. I'm in the shower like, "Okay, let me hurry up and write these lyrics." Or I'm like on the plane like, "Oh my gosh. I like how that sounds. Let me write it now so I don't forget it later." I felt like I was rushing trying to put out projects because I feel like I always got to feed the hotties. So right now how I'm writing, I'm really taking my time. This is the most songs that I've ever recorded. So that's why Something For The Hotties, it feels good because it's kind of like an introduction into the next phase of my music. This is something that I already did. I've been sitting on these songs so now I'm like, okay, the hotties deserve this. They should have it. And y'all should be prepared for next year.
2. Megan Thee Stallion Tells Apple Music About New Song "Megan’s Piano”…
Let me tell you about "Megan's Piano". So I was living in Malibu for a while. And it was a ass big piano in the middle of the living room. And me and my producer were sitting there and we was just messing around on the keys or whatever. And I was like, "Okay, let me play something and I want you to make a beat out of this." So I actually played all of the piano noises for the beat. This was a voice note. And at the beginning of the song, you kind of hear him and I going back and forth snickering because he like, "Megan. Okay. For real, for real. Do it, do it." And so I'm at the piano like this, do, do, do, do, do. Really trying to make it perfect.
3. Megan Thee Stallion Tells Apple Music Who She Worked With on ’Something For Thee Hotties’…
Everybody who I work with is always going to be across all my projects. So y'all know LilJu is on this. Y'all know Juicy J is on it. Buddha Bless This Beat, OG Parker, a guy that I've never worked with before, his name is Hit-Kid, but y'all will definitely hear a lot of stuff from me and Hit-Kid on this project and on my future projects because it's just fire. I love that Memphis sound, I love the Texas sound, so anytime I get to mesh the two it always comes out fire. So I hope I'm not leaving out anybody. But those are the people off the top of my head right now. But it ain't nobody new, same crew, I don't really do too many new things. If it ain't broke, I don't got to fix it.
4. Megan Thee Stallion Tells Apple Music About How She Approaches Collaborations And Wanting To Explore Diverse Genres…
If I like a person or if I'm into what they have going, I'm into the message, I just like you in general, then I'm going to collab with you. Because I feel like both of our things will work together. Both of our sounds will work together. And I just like to show other artists that I'll rock with you because a lot of times it seems like it's hard to get along with each other. But I'll be just wanting to let the people that I with, this is me saying I appreciate you and I like your artistry and thank you for having me a part of your artistry so I want to hop on. But I just feel like if it don't sound good to me, if it ain't something that I'm genuinely interested in then I'm not going to do it. I'm not doing it for the attention, I'm not doing it for clout, I'm not doing it because, "Our label said we should do this." No, I hop on shit I like, so. I just like all music. I don't only listen to one genre of music. So anytime I can get people to listen to me, that's all over the world, any type of mix, I'm like, "Yes, I rock with this too." I'm bringing hot girl shit to the dance. I'm bringing hot girl shit to K-pop, I'm bringing hot girl shit to Spanish music. I love everybody so I just want everybody to get the opportunity, if they never heard me before, to hear me.
5. Megan Thee Stallion Tells Apple Music Why She's Proud She Graduated College…
I haven't walked across the stage yet. I walk December the 11th. But from everybody being able to go on a journey with me from the beginning of my career, seeing me actually on campus in my dorm room rapping, transferring to my next college and me being Megan Thee Stallion at my college and my professors know that I'm rapping and the people in my class know that I'm a rapper. But for now for them to be like, "Oh my gosh, I remember that. Now look at us walking across the stage." I feel like that is a good thing for my hotties to see too. it's been a few times where I've been not as on time as I should have been to something because I had to either hurry up and finish a presentation on Zoom with my professors, or I had to hurry up and try to turn in my assignment before 11:59. It's been a whole little chaotic thing, but I really wanted to do it. I really wanted to make my mom proud. Really wanted to make my grandma proud. Wanted to make myself proud. To say that I stuck through something and I followed it all the way through and look at me now. Finishing my degree is something that I'm super proud of because not only did I want to be Megan Thee Stallion, my other plan A was being Megan Pete and I really wanted to open up these assisted living facilities because I saw the way my grandmother took care of my great-grandmother and I wanted to create an environment for the elderly to feel safe in. Kind of like end-of-life care. I wanted people to spend the rest of their life somewhere where it felt like home. So, that's what I'm going to do with my degree.
6. Megan Thee Stallion Tells Apple Music About Navigating The Pressures of Social Media…
I feel like it's a lot of pressure to make music that you feel like everybody likes. So it's like, okay, should I make myself this one way because I want to make sure that I hold my audience's attention? But then another side of me wants to make sure I always cater to my hotties. I want to do things that keep the people in love with me that fell in love with me in the first place, because I like to rap. So I'm like, okay, with this, I'm going to just let loose and I'm going to do whatever I want to do because this is why y'all fell in love with me in the first place. I got to block out everything else and I just want to rap. Sometimes it gets hard though. Because you look at social media and you're like, okay, this must be what's hot. You feel like, okay, I got to... Whether you're looking at people with money they're flashing, or you a girl and you're like, oh, her body look like this. Oh my gosh. My body has to look like that. So same thing with music. I feel like a lot of artists, we look at other artists and be like, oh my gosh, this has to be like this because they the shit so I got to be that bitch too. But I'm like, nah, it's not me.
7. Megan Thee Stallion Tells Apple Music About Partnering With Popeyes…
It wasn't just another brand deal because, first of all, everybody know I love spicy food, so let's start there. So I'm like, "Okay, I really want to create this sauce that is the shit I really wanted to create a sauce that's authentic to me. I like that's sweet. I like that's hot. So boom, that's how we got the Hottie Sauce. But then just for me to be growing up in my area and Popeyes is something that was just on the south side of Houston a lot, we was $2 Tuesdays in college. This is something that I was really eating. And just being able to go back to my city and whatever city that I felt like, people need jobs and to be able to create job opportunities for other people. I feel like that was something that was very important to me. So I just wanted to make sure I have some shit in the hood or some anywhere that got my name on it that I'm like, "Okay, y'all see me. I'm giving back. I love y'all. Y'all my people." So I just always like to let people know that I appreciate them as much as they appreciate me.

Meg’s doing much more than just dropping hot sauces. She’s also put out some exclusive merch to commemorate the special day.
Today, Megan Thee Stallion and Popeyes also dropped a Western-inspired music video short-style film to celebrate today’s launch. The project features Megan’s alter ego, Tina Snow, as the bandit, stealing Megan’s Hottie Sauce and forcing her to chase Tina from her hometown of Houston to the Popeyes brand’s hometown of New Orleans to secure it.
Megan Thee Stallion Hottie Sauce will be spicing up the brand’s iconic Chicken Sandwich and new Nuggets today in restaurants across the U.S. and in 14 countries around the globe, marking the first time the brand has released a new variation of the Chicken Sandwich. Megan worked closely with the Popeyes culinary team to develop the sauce, which flaunts a sweet, yet bold flavor with a hint of spice, inspired by Megan’s sassy personality. Made with honey, cider vinegar, and Aleppo pepper, Hottie Sauce adds a perfect amount of heat to complement Popeyes authentic Louisiana-style chicken.
Thee Heat includes bikinis, long sleeve shirts, crewneck sweaters, hats, tumblers, and more. The merch represents Megan Thee Stallion’s famously fiery personality, dynamic presence, and her bold individual aesthetic. Two additional merchandise releases will become available during the month of November.
