Megan Thee Stallion speaks to PEOPLE at her inaugural Pete & Thomas Foundation Gala, which raised over $1.2 million to support education, housing, health and wellness.

Megan Thee Stallion and Klay Thompson have made their red carpet debut. Days after a source confirmed to " Good Morning America " that the Grammy-winning rapper and the Dallas Mavericks Guard were officially an item, the duo stepped out Wednesday night for a glamorous evening in New York City.

For the black-tie occasion in Midtown Manhattan, Megan Thee Stallion stunned in a plunging halter-necked gown by Off-White, the LVMH-owned label founded in 2013 by the late streetwear visionary Virgil Abloh.

The rapper sparked romance rumors with NBA athlete Klay Thompson a few days before confirming their romance in July 2025. Thompson, who is a four-time NBA champion and plays for the Dallas Mavericks, also made their relationship official by posting a photo with her on Instagram.

Megan Thee Stallion’s shout‑out to Desiree Perez wasn’t just a thank‑you; it was a headline‑generating stunt. With Nicki Minaj in full troll mode and fans racing to interpret every wink, word, and video clip, the moment will reverberate across social feeds for days.
