Taking to Instagram to share several photos from the event, Megan expressed her gratitude toward city officials.
“Came home real quick to get THEE KEY TO THEE CITY and in honor of my mother and grandmother’s birthday MAY 2ND is officially MEGAN THEE STALLION DAY IN HOUSTON TX (sic),” she wrote in the caption. “Thank you Mayor @sylvesterturner for honoring me today and I will continue to give back to the city that made me who I am today.”
