Megan Thee Stallion begs Beyoncé to add her and GloRilla to her close friends on Instagram: ‘Please?’
Megan Thee Stallion recently had a candid conversation with her good friend and fellow rapper GloRilla on the Instagram podcast “Close Friends Only,” where they discussed their shared admiration for Beyoncé, their social media habits, and their personal experiences. The episode offered fans an intimate look into their friendship and experiences with the global icon.
During the podcast, Megan Thee Stallion, 29, made a playful request to Beyoncé, 42. “Beyoncé, if you have a Close Friends profile, could you please put Glo and I in there?” Megan asked with a mix of humor and hope. GloRilla, 25, repeated the request with enthusiasm, saying, “Please!”
GloRilla, who revealed that she has Beyoncé in her own close circle of friends, added with a laugh, “Shawty is totally delusional! I know she’ll never realize it, but I have her in my close circle of friends.” Megan jokingly responded, calling GloRilla’s belief “delulu,” a playful reference to the idea that Beyoncé might not notice the request.
The discussion quickly turned to the duo’s shared respect and awe for Beyoncé. GloRilla recalled her first encounters with the music superstar. “I’m so scared. I’ve met her twice and, bitch, every time I feel like I’m leaving my body and going to heaven,” GloRilla said with obvious admiration. “I’m literally obsessed with Beyoncé.”
Megan Thee Stallion also reflected on her interactions with Beyoncé, noting, “Talking about Beyoncé still makes me nervous. Beyoncé is really like… Beyoncé. Your mama called you Beyoncé because she knew you were finally going to be that girl.” Megan, who collaborated with Beyoncé on 2020’s “Savage” remix, couldn’t pinpoint their first meeting but shared her continued awe. “I don’t know, I just love Beyoncé… When did I first meet her? I can’t even tell you the first time because I just feel so cool now because I’ve seen Beyoncé a couple times.”
Both rappers have had unforgettable experiences with Beyoncé. Megan Thee Stallion’s collaboration on the “Savage” remix earned her two of her first three Grammy Awards and helped make Beyoncé the most successful Grammy winner of all time with her 28th win.
GloRilla’s encounters with Beyoncé took place during the 2023 Grammys and the 2024 iHeartRadio Music Awards. Looking back on their meeting at the iHeartRadio Music Awards, GloRilla shared, “I was like, ‘Oh sh*t!’ I was a little scared. They had asked if I could talk to Beyoncé and she let me in her room. I was like, ‘Ahhhh!’ And she was always so nice to me. I feel like she loves me as much as I love her. Seriously!”
Her admiration for Beyoncé was matched by their playful banter on social media. Megan shared that her Instagram explore page features “sharks, pasta, and wigs,” while GloRilla admitted that she occasionally posts about her interests to get attention, saying, “Oh, yeah, I do!” Megan also revealed that her best friend strategically uses the Close Friends feature to get a guy’s attention.
The podcast episode highlighted the strong bond between Megan Thee Stallion and GloRilla, which was further underscored by Megan’s heartfelt birthday wishes for GloRilla. Following their Hot Girl Summer tour together, Megan posted a birthday tribute on Instagram, writing, “HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO THE THICKEST OF THE ALIVE 🔥🔥🔥🔥 I can’t believe I don’t see you every day anymore it feels weird 😂😂😂 I miss you, I love you, I hope you try Jamaica with me lol. I thank God for another year with you on this planet 💙 @glorillapimp.”
While Megan and GloRilla continue to celebrate their successes and special moments, their mutual respect for Beyoncé and genuine friendship remain a central part of their public persona.
