Megan Thee Stallion closed out the main stage on the first night of EP
'Real Hot Girl Sh*t': Megan Thee Stallion closed out the Main Stage of Electric Picnic Friday night with a bang. Emerging dramatically with her usual style in a fabulous sequined bodysuit and flawless long hair, she announced "I came here to party tonight."
The Texan rapper has returned to Ireland once again-fresh off her Longitude headline spot- to headline EP as 'Hot Girl Summer' comes to a close.
She is a performer who quite literally demands the attention of the crowd- and the whole festival for that matter. Although she began her set alone, her presence and energy was enough to fill a hundred stages. She informed us all that there's "nothing more important than my ass," and demanded everyone "turn up" for her.
She celebrated her new album Traumazine by performing new hit 'NDA'. She had the audience "put your motherf*cking lights up" for 'Cash Sh*t'.
Megan gave the audience a lesson in twerking with her song 'Simon Says' and then invited a hoard of fans on stage for a performance of 'Her'. "Where my mother f*cking hot girls at?" she asked. Calling out to audience members by their outfits, Megan instructed them to not get shy, and show her their moves. One fan held up a sign that read "I flew from Australia to dance with you on stage," and Megan swiftly made that dream come true. "Make some noise for the hotties," she cheered, and then hugged and took photos with them all. Those who were not invited up on stage had their own dance party on the ground.

Moving on to 'WAP' where she was joined by her dance crew, the audience's belting made up for Cardi B's absence. Both Megan and the crowd went wild for 'Body', before closing out the night with 'Savage' where the audience once again filled in for Beyoncé's verse. Megan made a graceful exit, but not before declaring, "If you still don't know about me- ask your boo about me."
