Megan Thee Stallion Shows Off Her Body
Megan Thee Stallion brought the “Good News” with a world premiere of her sizzlin’ single, Body. Megan put body positivity on center stage with some empowering words to kick of her powerful performance.
“My body is mine, and nobody owns it but me. And who I choose to let in is so lucky. You may not think my body is perfect, and it probably never will be. But when I look in the mirror, I love what I see.”
