Megan Thee Stallion just won her first Grammy and made history in the process! Before the official show, the 26-year-old rapper took home the award for best rap performance for her hit “Savage” with Beyoncé during the premiere on Sunday. Not only does this make her an official Grammy winner, but it is also the first time in history that an all-female collaboration has won the category.
Of course, Megan couldn’t hold back her excitement about the most important milestone. “Thank you Lord. God is the first person I want to thank,” Megan said in her speech. “I just still can’t even believe it … thank everyone who just rocks with me and has been riding with me for a long time. I love you all so much. Thank you for believing in me.” Shortly thereafter, Megan tweeted, “AHHHHHHHJHGJDKNBOOM” with a bunch of crying emoji faces. She also thanked her fans, adding, “I love you, beauties.”
AHHHHHHHJHGJDKNBOOM😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
