The reason for her tears were unclear. But the “Flamin’ Hottie” rapper, real name Megan Pete, has been accused of using seat fillers at her concerts.
The rumors started after an email circulated online. Allegedly, Ticketmaster contacted Hottie Club members to be seat fillers for Megan’s half-empty shows.
In a screenshot posted by Instagram blogger DJ Akademiks, the email offers complimentary tickets to Megan’s shows in exchange for being a seat-filler.
The email has since been debunked, but rumors persist that the “Boa” rapper and her opening act, GloRilla, can’t sell out arenas.
Megan has not directly addressed the seat filling rumors.
Her concert at State Farm Arena in Atlanta, originally scheduled for Friday, May 31, was postponed until June 2nd after pipes burst, flooding the streets.
In an Instagram post, Megan thanked her fans for their patience during Atlanta’s water crisis.
“ATLANTA HOTTIES !!! We’ve been going through ittt but tonight its really happening,” she wrote. “Thank you for riding this out with me love yall.”
