Megan Thee Stallion Reveals She Called Her Grandma First After Landing Three Grammy Nominations

“I feel really great. I feel really blessed,” Megan gushed. “I always make music for myself that I really like. I’m making music that I know my hotties are gonna like, and that’s, what’s always super important, but to get the acknowledgement… to get the Grammy nominations, I’m like, you guys really love me.”

But the first person who entered Megan’s mind when she got that call was her Grandma.

“I was caught off guard because I was presenting like the nominees for another category and all of a sudden it was like, ‘Megan, and guess what? You are actually nominated for a few Grammys yourself,'” she recalled. “And I was like, ‘What!’, so I had to call my grandma.”

Megan later gushed on the advice she received from her “Savage” remix collaborator, Beyonce and Jay Z.

“They are just, they, they know how much they mean to me. Like even before I knew them and just being a fan I’m like, Beyoncé just knows that she is the standard. And to have somebody like her always encouraging me and somebody like Jay, always giving me those words of inspiration, words of encouragement, those keep going, keep pushing that advice from time to time,” she said. “Like, I feel like I must be doing something right, because the people that I would have been looked, the only people that I would have been asking in the first place for their advice is actually voluntarily giving it to me and voluntarily, you know, hyping me up. So I feel real good about that.”
