Megan Thee Stallion’s headline performance at Coachella on Sunday night briefly paused due to a microphone issue. Approximately 20 minutes into her set, the rapper called out for assistance when her mic dislodged from her outfit mid-performance.

“Somebody come out here and fix my mother******* mic,” she said, prompting a crew member to quickly step onstage and assist. Megan thanked the technician and resumed her performance without further disruption.

The set, which began with popular tracks such as “Savage,” maintained momentum despite the technical hiccup. Roughly 25 minutes into her set, she welcomed Queen Latifah onstage, receiving an enthusiastic response from the audience. Victoria Monét also appeared during the performance.

Later in the evening, Megan was joined by Ciara, and the duo performed the 2004 hit “Goodies.” Their collaboration added to the series of guest appearances that defined the energetic set. Between performances, Megan addressed the crowd with encouragement, saying, “If you love your body make some mother****** noise,” before starting her track “Body.”

The performance featured multiple wardrobe changes, and at several points, the artist adjusted her footwear before switching to a different pair. She performed live over backing tracks while participating in choreographed routines with her dancers, demonstrating her physical stamina throughout the set.

As her time slot drew to a close, Megan extended her set slightly before concluding abruptly. “I gotta go. I love y’all so much, thank y’all. See y’all next weekend!” she told the audience as she exited the stage.

Reactions from fans online praised her stage presence and stamina. “The energy required for all this rapping and ass shaking is wild. Megan is doing an excellent job,” one viewer wrote. Others highlighted the historic collaborations, with comments such as “Queen Latifah and Megan Thee Stallion together at Coachella? Legendary!”
