Megan Thee Stallion had to cancel her “Moulin Rouge” run on Broadway. Extreme exhaustion and dehydration sent her to the hospital. All information about the comeback.
US rapper Megan Thee Stallion recently demonstrated her versatility by becoming the first woman to take on the role of Zidler in the musical “Moulin Rouge”. An eight-week show run was planned, but the musician now had to interrupt it. On March 31, 2026, an incident occurred during one of the performances: the performer felt unwell from one moment to the next, collapsed and had to stop the performance for medical reasons. As a result, the rest of the performance was canceled. Much to the concern of many fans, she was subsequently taken to hospital. Now there is current information about her condition.
“Extreme exhaustion”
The fans can breathe a sigh of relief for now. An update came from Megan Thee Stallion’s camp regarding her health status. The 31-year-old has now been released from the hospital and is now taking a rest period to recover. Her doctors also released a statement naming the causes of her absence: The reasons given for stopping her performance were the symptoms “extreme exhaustion, dehydration, narrowing of the blood vessels and low metabolic values”.
Shortly after the incident, a rep for the rapper told Billboard: “Megan suddenly felt very unwell and was immediately taken to a local hospital.”
What’s next for “Moulin Rouge”?
Of course, many are wondering what will happen next with the performances of the musical. The ticket provider AGT Tickets also spoke up about this on April 1, 2026: “She is looking forward to resuming her role as Zidler in “Moulin Rouge” on Thursday.” The Thursday in question is today, April 2, 2026. Given that the singer was only released from the hospital today and is now in a resting phase, a comeback on stage today is unlikely.
There has so far been no further statement from the ticket provider or from Megan Thee Stallion personally in this regard. It therefore remains to be seen when she will continue her work in the Broadway musical.
