Megan Thee Stallion has spoken candidly about how voice acting presents different challenges compared to making music.
The “Savage” rapper has collaborated with The Boondocks producer Carl Jones to develop an original anime series titled Hotties.
When she revealed the project on Instagram in February, the rapper wrote, “YALL ITS HAPPENINGGGG! My anime is coming together so beautifully Carl Jones is a GENIUS!!! Can’t wait for thee hotties to meet the HOTTIES.”
In an interview with InStyle about the show’s progress, she described voice acting for a character as “really different” from her work as a singer.
“Going in the studio and being Megan Thee Stallion, like, I can record something and I know what voice I’m going to do it in. Boom. This is what it sounds like over the track. That is easy. But voice acting for a character is really different,” the 31-year-old said.
“When I saw it back the first time, I was like, Oh hell no. I did that way too dry. I got to be more animated. I got to make my inflection different here and there.”
She continued, “I’ve been having a lot of fun doing my voice acting.”
The triple Grammy winner is also expanding her on-screen acting work, with roles in The Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins alongside Daniel Radcliffe, the 2026 comedy Roommates, and a part in Moulin Rouge! on Broadway.
Hotties will be available exclusively on Prime Video, though an official release date has not yet been announced.
