Megan Thee Stallion’s Escargot Debut with Queen Latifah
I guess you need me to walk you through Megan Thee Stallion’s latest fine‑dining adventure, so here’s the lowdown. On April 21, 2025, the “Hot Girl Summer” rapper surprised fans yet again—this time with a gastro‑exploration alongside Queen Latifah and her wife, Eboni Nichols. In an Instagram video shared by Megan, the Houston star and her iconic dining companions dove fork‑first into an array of upscale seafood dishes that most of us only dare to pronounce, let alone taste.
To kick things off, the trio settled into a cozy restaurant booth while glasses of red wine and cocktails made their rounds. Megan declared herself “an excellent oyster maker,” but Eboni wasn’t about to cede culinary bragging rights. Cue a blind taste test reminiscent of a cooking show cameo: both ladies assembled raw oysters with various toppings, then passed the shells to Queen Latifah for judgment. Although the “Living Single” alum tried to discern whose creation was whose, Megan hilariously slipped up, revealing her oysters were the “heavier” variety—hardly the subtle reveal of a seasoned pro.
Next on the menu was caviar, which Megan seemed to enjoy when paired with a simple slice of bread. But her courage would soon be tested by the star of the evening: escargot. As sizzling snail plates landed on their table, Megan winced at the sight (and heat), proclaiming, “Whoever eats that, you a murderer! Murder is on your resume, you need to go to jail.” Despite huffing and puffing to cool each buttery morsel, she bravely went all in, making priceless faces that had viewers in stitches.
The grand finale featured mussels, where Queen Latifah switched from judge to instructor. With the poise of a mentor, she showed Megan how to spot safe shells—“If that shell doesn’t open by itself, then don’t eat it,” she advised—before demonstrating the proper slurp technique. Megan’s evident curiosity and comedic relief solidified the dinner as a delightful blend of high‑end fare and genuine celebrity camaraderie.
Fans took to social media to gush over the pairing of personalities, calling Megan “everyone’s favorite little niece” and praising the easy rapport between music royalty and Hollywood veteran. And if you think the night stopped there, hold on—this was only the appetizer to Megan’s Coachella triumph. Dubbed “Megchella,” her Coachella 2025 set featured surprise appearances by Queen Latifah, Ciara, Victoria Monét, and more, cementing her status as both a stage powerhouse and adventurous foodie.
There you have it—your crash course in celebrity fine‑dining you probably thought you’d never need. Hopefully that wasn’t too technical.
