Megan Thee Stallion is now a multi-time Moon Person recipient.
The 25-year-old Houston rapper took home the award for Best Hip Hop for “Savage” at the 2020 MTV Video Music Awards on Sunday (August 30). Due to COVID-19, the Keke Palmer hosted event was held virtually and took place at “various outdoor locations” around New York City.
A day after she honored Black lives lost to police brutality and gun violence during her virtual concert, Megan accepted the award from her home in Los Angeles.
“Thank you Hotties! Thank you MTV, oh my gosh I cannot believe Best Hip-Hop,” Megan says in a video shared to her Instagram account. “But thank y’all for real, thank y’all so much. This is my second Moon Man, definitely not my last. I just wanna say thank y’all so very much and we gon’ keep turnin’ up!”
