Megan Thee Stallion‘s Coachella 2025 performance was iconic but controversial as fans claimed the music festival cut off her set and “silenced” her. Stallion brought out several female stars while performing a medley of her fiery hits, such as “Savage” and “Body,” despite a technical glitch with her microphone. The Los Angeles Times mentioned that the festival disconnected her sound and mic for going two minutes over the set time, bringing her set to an abrupt end. It occurred while the rapper and her dancers were still on the main stage.
Coachella seemingly cuts off Megan Thee Stallion’s set, leaving fans upset
Fans weren’t too happy after Coachella 2025 seemingly cut off Megan Thee Stallion‘s star-heavy set mid-performance. Stallion was one of the popular names for Sunday night and delivered back-to-back dynamic performances. Moreover, she brought out Queen Latifah, Victoria Monet, and Ciara as guests to elevate the energy. The Independent stated that this evoked an unmatched response from the audience despite a technical glitch with her microphone that briefly hindered but didn’t stop her from carrying out one of her sultry dance numbers.
However, the LA Times mentioned that Coachella cut off the rapper’s sound entirely for extending her performance beyond the set time. A clip showed her running across the stage as she continued to speak into the mic that appeared to have been disconnected just as she was about to perform her recent hit “Mamushi” and right after she finished “Big Ole Freak.” This brought Stallion’s highly anticipated act for the night to an abrupt end.
Megan Thee Stallion’s fans have since taken over social media, claiming Coahcella “silenced” her by cutting off her set. X (formerly Twitter) users called out the music festival, expressing their annoyance and frustration over the situation. Many more upset fans highlighted her back-to-back killer performances and slammed Coachella for the abrupt ending to her act. Stallion’s performance came in the penultimate set of Sunday night right before Post Malone’s slot as the headliner.
