The rapper opened up to Jimmy Fallon on The Tonight Show about how she stumbled upon the iconic HBO series—and became immediately obsessed.
Rapper Megan Thee Stallion is upset no one told her to watch Sex and the City, the popular late 90s-early 2000 TV series that she didn’t stumble upon until now.
Nobody told me Sex And The City was this good. I’m pissed,” she told Tonight Show host Jimmy Fallon on Wednesday night’s broadcast
Nobody said, ‘Megan, you should be watching Sex And The City. Girl, this… for the culture. You know, watch it.’”
“I don’t even know how I stumbled upon it. I think I just kept seeing pictures of Sarah Jessica [Parker] looking pretty as f’k.””Her hair, her shoes, her outfits were always so beautiful. And I was like, ‘What is this show? Let me just — let me watch it. Let me get into it.’ Because nobody put me on.”For her, it was pretty much love at first sight. She recalled her immediate reaction to sitting down to watch the show for the first time.”So I start watching the show, and I’m like… I cannot look away,” she said, not being aware she was already hooked.
The show instantly became a part of the pop cultural zeitgeist with its bombastic fashion and themes of femininity, friendships, relationships, and heartbreak, and spawned two feature films and a continuation series currently showing on Max under the title And Just Like That.Fans found her enthusiasm for the original series, which ended twenty years ago, so pure.
