Scarlet--Highlander

Megan D. Stallion


DASreddituser

It would be hilarious if she changed her stage name to that


Zoharic

Is that what the Navy call her now?


GawoopyDawoopy

Maybe but its definitely what the Marines call her


Revolutionary-Run332

It all makes sense


BanstaMonsta

This is golden


shiba-on-parade

not surprising. she's a massive weeaboo. her jojo inspired outfits are something else.


The_illusionIsREAL

Love her Jolyne


dhochoy

Her cosplsy of Soul Eater surprised me too. I thought she only watched ultra-popular battle shonen.


Singularity-Dragon

you have to remember she’s BEEN a weeb and soul eater was ultra-popular at one time also she fucks with more niche things she’s not just a top of the season watcher (she’s from the generation of watching anime on youtube reversed, highpitched, and like 480p)


dhochoy

Yeah, She's almost as young as me (I'm 27) so she's probably a Toonami bopper turned casual fan (she pronounced "Hunter x Hunter" wrong). A weeb is kinda a stretch since weebs are obsessed with all things Japanese. Meg just really likes anime. And no, I'm not a fan.


Singularity-Dragon

lol saying “hunter x hunter” is one of the biggest tell alls of the time period you started watching anime (highly agree she probably started with toonami, 4kids, and youtube and tom from toonami used to say hunter x hunter in the earlier showings) but she also really loves their cooking, their music among other things (she like to chef it up, i’m not a huge fan either just info i’ve picked up cause some of her music is great for AMVs and her cosplay) never realized we were basically the same age though, but it explains a lot


Grenadier021

>she pronounced "Hunter x Hunter" wrong Is it just hunter hunter?


AllysiaAius

Officially, yes. As someone who read it, and had no outside context on it that the x is supposed to be unread, I fucking hate it, and will forever call it "Hunter Ex Hunter" out loud


bakutehbandit

ex? do you mean eks?


DLottchula

Yep she probably started on Saturday Mornings and after school like the rest of us


Blambitch

Holy shit i was more of a manga reader in my younger days and then I switched over to anime more recently it I’ve always called in hunter x hunter and no ones ever told me different til now.


Funny0000007

Hunter versus Hunter


Real_Mokola

No, it's to be pronounced hunteru ecksu hunteru, all the cool kids know it


shiba-on-parade

I have a friend that is over forty, has been reading HxH scans since Greed Island and doesn’t omit the X. He also lived in Japan and taught there for like five years lol


rorank

480p was actually pretty good back then. We’ve gotten so spoiled.


TeeKayTank

she likes Black clover. 👑


dhochoy

Isn't Black Clover like one of the popular anime at the moment?


TeeKayTank

it was the most popular crunchy roll Show last year, but it gets overhated. she's a Real one for that


jennyfromtheblok19

she even did Saiki K awhile back, i thought she only did mainstream ones too


DLottchula

Nah she deep in the need trenches. And most women go deep into anime it’s just dudes assume it’s all Dragonball and Naruto


emeraldeyesshine

It's fucking wild to me being old enough to have seen anime go from that thing only weirdos liked (and was usually lumped in with hentai) to main stream interest (that's usually lumped in with hentai)


shiba-on-parade

I grew up spending $40 USD for two or three episodes of subtitled anime from suncoast and this definitely checks lol


Alamand1

I mean it can honestly be that she grew up being an anime nerd and an aspiring music star and now just follows both passions successfully.


emeraldeyesshine

Well sure, but my point was about the reputation from saying you like anime changing. It's not a weird taboo thing anymore. Still absolutely tons of perverted shit of course but you can say "I like anime" without making people want to stay away from you or call HR now. The pre-00's era is what I'm referring to mainly. By the 00s it was definitely moving into the international mainstream in a much faster and grander way. And honestly I think Pokémon was probably the power mover for that in the mid-late 90s.


Its_Helios

Her my hero academia cosplays are also goated


airhornJumpscare

Just learning about this. Day made.


SPJess

Is that why I saw that "rumor" the Live action team was talking about casting Megan Thee Stallion as Boa? When like the major characters of Alabasta haven't even been revealed.


Rentboy93

Always seemed weird to me because itll take like 10 years before boa even shows up in the live action


musashisamurai

I mean, they had Garp in East Blue and that wasn't in the Manga. Could easily see Boa as a cameo with Crocodile, or something. Though, if i was to do an earlier appearance, I'd rather have Doflamingo or Jinbe. They have the CGI and props for Fishman, and we could see Ace chatting about Jinbe or even traveling with him. If they get to Impel Downs, it shows how close they were, and maybe, they can have Jinbe join earlier. Meanwhile Doffy is a foil to Crocodile and has an early almost cameo like appearance. Be in character to talk to Crocodile about underworld dealings


Arkayjiya

They're already gonna have to reduce the amount of characters so unless Boa solve a very specific issue they have (which I really don't see here), I think they wouldn't shoot them in the foot by casting her too early. Garp was needed to have a continuous storyline in East Blue. But for later season, that's basically already taken care of.


LargeVidster

Maybe Boa appears in Season 3 during the Warlord meeting where Laffitte comes to promote Teach.


Master_Lego_Yoda

Garp trains Koby in the east blue thats canon they just put the cover story content into the main story and made him a smoker style character


MaezrielGG

> they had Garp in East Blue and that wasn't in the Manga Was Garp not in East Blue at all? Or were the Coby/Helmeppo cover stories only after the crew crossed Reverse Mountain?


musashisamurai

I do not remember off the top of my head, but Garp was revealed to be Luffy's grandpa in Water 7, after the Enies Lobby arc. Before that, he was just a vice Admiral who had showed up to deal with Captain Morgan. In the Romance Dawn, chapter zero, Luffy has a grandpa so i guess the oldest fans wouldn't have been surprised. But everyone else was during Enies Lobby


mr_chub

They were directly after Axe Morgan so he was introduced early.


MEGAMILKBLAST

Praying for a Ryan gosling doflamingo


Sythrin

They will prbably not cast Megan, as Boa is asian/chinese ethnicity. And they want to cast someone with the correlated ethnical background


musashisamurai

Scottish Garp is now canon.


pseudo_nemesis

I didn't realize there was an Asia on the One Piece map. Did it suffer the same fate as Lulusia?


kfish5050

Maybe not, if they cast her as a cameo in s3 for the 7 warlords summit, then in s5-6 for Amazon Lily. Plus, the live action might have all sorts of things in a different order than in the manga, so who can really tell.


The_illusionIsREAL

I dont think Megan has the acting credentials no shade


MZero1296

Its Netflix so it fits. Lol.


TacoBelial

She’s actually acted before. She was in a musical movie by A24 (I didn’t see it yet so I don’t know if she was good but)


PrinceOfAssassins

we got time for her to learn...amazon lily probably no earlier than 2030


Master_Lego_Yoda

I hope not


Pzeke14

I never heard that rumor but I hope it's not true bc I would personally hate that. I just can't see someone like her playing the most beautiful woman in the world who is also head over heels for Luffy


Frequent_Gas3629

You hate the idea of a beautiful woman playing a beautiful character lol get a grip seriously.


Pzeke14

Back when I was a Marvel fanboy, I watched the She Hulk episode with the Megan Thee Stallion cameo where they both twerk for like 30 seconds straight and I absolutely hated it. But if that's what you think about her looks then that means we don't share the same opinion at all. The personalities also don't match, I cannot see Megan acting the way Hancock does. Also from what I've heard of Megan, let's just say the way her voice sounds is not my favorite. No offense to you tho you can like whatever you want so please don't crucify me on the comment section.


MirirPaladin

yeah they'll either have a random scene with her or retcon the show so she appears earlier, i sincerely hope they don't cram 500 chapters in one season


Reckless_Rik

I like how most people in fandom refuse to call the character by her first name and stick to the more feminine sounding family name.


girl_send_nudes_plz

it's so weird. everyone used to call her hancock like 2 years ago and now all i see is boa


TTZZJJ

People do that probably cause it's easier to type Boa as opposed to Hancock (I will never stop calling her Hancock tho)


honestruths

I just assumed it was newer fans who didn’t know any better who did that. After all the OP fan base in the west grew a lot during covid so it seemed possible to me


Pristine_Art7859

Isn't her first name Boa?


Reckless_Rik

That's her family name. Her name is hancock. Just like her sisters. Boa Marigold and Boa Sandersonia


Battoga

One Piece uses the family name -> first name order. Pretty sure there was even an SBS concerning this. Like, Whitebeard's first name is Newgate, and family name Edward.


Pristine_Art7859

I don't believe that


Battoga

I mean.. why wouldn't you? Do you think the Boa sisters all share their first name? Or that Whitebeard's "son" has Edward as first name and Weevil as last name? Or that the entire Charlotte family shares the first name charlotte? Zoro's first name is Roronoa? Luffy's first name is Monkey?


wolffox87

I call her Boa because I go with the Luffy style of nicknames when a name is more than lime 2 syllables for a character, and calling Boa "Handy" or "Cock" don't seem right to me. Even compared to her sisters "Mary" and "Sandy". It's just easier and more pleasant to give her the family name than a nickname


Gol-D-Man

I thought they were ps2 games at first


gigaquack

That's intentional


dougandsomeone

Nice touch how the the Playstation logo in the top right corners went from PS to MS


MysticalMystic256

to be fair, If they are albums you could play them on PS2 since they play music cds


fork_yuu

Her maturity rating is on the right instead of the left though LITERALLY UNPLAYABLE


1Dzach

My special interests colliding 😭 love her sm


Responsible-Metal-32

She ate the wap wap no mi


The_illusionIsREAL

Lmao


dhochoy

濡れたお尻プッシーフルーツ (Nureta o shiri pusshīfurūtsu) Wap Fruit


IcepickEvans

But why PS2 game boxes?


AdebayoStan

because they fit with the style of the images


floatifloati

because smart & cool marketing


honestruths

Because 2000s nostalgia


SwordMaster21

Doflamingo Majors and Hancock Megan, what other photo shoots are gonna be the Warlords? I wanna see CeeLo do Moria or Jinbei


Shiro_no_Orpheus

At the crunchyroll anime awards she wore a jojos costume, so either she is really trying to get into the market or she really likes anime.


RedDreadsComin

She genuinely likes anime


fork_yuu

https://www.cbr.com/times-megan-thee-stallion-showcased-her-anime-love/ I was looking that up and she might even watch more anime than most people here who only watched shounen / one piece lmao


RedDreadsComin

I know for a fact Megan watches more shit than me. I’m not a huge anime guy but love what I watch.


YungVicenteFernandez

She’s a huge weeb she’s just normal about it and successful lol


pseudo_nemesis

One of the bars from one of her most recent songs is >"I'm the female titan, I'm steppin on n***as" ...I think she likes anime.


djojid0

Thought this was a ps2 game cover


FreezingLordDaimyo

Look. Meg is one of us. She's one of the people.


LosurdoEnjoyer

I said certified freak, 7 days a week, Mero Mero no Mi make that pull out game weak.


Atreyu_Salieri

Meh.


DanTyrano

She's great.


Mindless_Benefit_118

Them ps2 Game covers go crazy


ImmortalPharaoh

I'm getting some mortal kombat vibes too


tenBusch

TIL she's a real celebrity and not a fake one invented for She-Hulk


killzer

she's known for her wholesome song "WAP". Be sure to play it around your family as it's family friendly


Regret92

She is the natural enemy of Ben Shapiro and his dry-dry fruit


TheMeatTree

Ben Shapiro is a medical condition.


honestruths

Legend has it that upon hearing WAP been consulted his wife for advice (she is a doctor). She reassured him that a wet ass pussy is a sign of a medical condition. Which explains why anytime she experiences wetness down there she gets treatment from her tennis instructor Lars who is qualified to administer massage therapy to help alleviate those symptoms. They have an extremely healthy marriage.


tenBusch

See that song I know about from the memes, I just wouldn't have been able to tell you what artist it's from


Goredema

She's appeared in a Disney show, [it must be for the kids](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vc40g90e3o0)!


Haunting_Lie_1158

You muffled my scream in this parking lot.


DLottchula

This is why I call bullshit on Reddit when people think she was made up for she-hulk. It’s no way you made it to Reddit and didn’t see that pearl clutching especially during peak Covid


tenBusch

I know of that song, but I had no idea who the artist of it was. No idea why that would be unrelealistic


TwelveMiceInaCage

Wait dead ass? Not hating genuinely surprised I thought her issue with torey lanz and the club shooting would of reached most nor era of social media by now it's been a couple years if not more Yeah real artist, real person, real bad birch from what I hear


NetflixAndNikah

I’m aware of who megan is just because I’m generally into hip hop (latest kdot diss though), but it’s wild to think that the whole torey lanez shooting would even be a blip on anyone’s radar. Even if you were on social media 24/7, there’s so much going on and so many different spheres of content that don’t overlap with each other


iTaylor04

Bro said dance 😂 how was that looney toons type situation NOT everywhere


tenBusch

Yeah, genuinely. Not in any smart-ass "I'm too cultured for these _celebrities_-way, just never hard her name anywhere else besides She-Hulk and now here. Very weird way to find out > I thought her issue with torey lanz and the club shooting would of reached most nor era of social media by now it's been a couple years if not more No idea what any of these are lol, but I guess I just missed that entire bubble. Just don't use social media much and most musicians I hear about would be European, not America celebrities 


mr_chub

Been a hip hop fan my whole life, been a Megan fan for years, and I enjoy Torey's music (not him). You don't need to know who any of these people are lol save yourself.


TwelveMiceInaCage

To my understanding Meghan and torey were both in a club and torey apparently shot Meghan in the foot but handed the gun off to someone else and I truly don't reeber how it ended but I believe torey is in jail


tenBusch

Wtf, that's wild


SpreadtheClap

Yeah she ended up getting a lot of hate about it too, weirdly enough, with a bunch of people saying Megan framed Tory or something like that. (Same kind of crowd who sides with Chris Brown I guess.)


Beiki

I thought the same thing until I heard her mentioned on the radio.


Former_Beautiful_444

same man, mostly unknown at least in france


Buscemi_D_Sanji

Hahaha I was hoping someone would say this, the only reason I knew was because of the WAP memes after Ben Shapiro said that shit about his wife. I actually really liked that show, even with the whole "nothing really happens" aspect of it lol


Nowayuru

Lol the exact same thing happened to me with 'The Weeknd' some time after watching Uncut Gems


mnmkdc

This one is wild because The Weeknd was one of the biggest artists in the world before that


Nowayuru

Was he so big world wide? I'm not from the US, that's probably why this happened. But Drake and Taylor Swift for example were constantly in the top 10 songs here (probably everywhere). I thought the name was so weird it had to be made up.


mnmkdc

He definitely was big worldwide enough that his albums go number 1 in a bunch of countries but I’m unsure to what extent exactly. Him and Taylor have about the same amount of Spotify listeners now though and he’s had more than Drake for a while.


Nugur

[enjoy](https://www.guinnessworldrecords.com/news/2023/3/the-weeknd-is-officially-the-worlds-most-popular-artist-741774)


Nowayuru

Sure, but that is 2023. Uncut Gems came out in 2019. I'm sure he was still very famous and it's just me who didn't know him


Nugur

He didn’t become famous overnight.


Mogakusha

What happened?


mnmkdc

Nothing happened I just mean he was a mega star before that movie even came out. It’d be like not knowing Drake or Taylor swift was real


MoonoftheStar

Was that rock comfy?


tenBusch

Eh, not that hard to miss some specific celebrities when you're not American and don't engage in the relevant subculture 


MoonoftheStar

Fair enough. I'm not American either nor do I engage in the "relevant subculture" but I know of her just because her name trends frequently.


DarkFite

She didnt do the pose :/


Doctor_French32

Looks like porn games/movies boxes


Possible_Watch944

That or those 90s vhs tapes or video game box art Then again Megan is a freak so it could be either

Expensive-Tough-9778

It's insane how far One Piece has come. Megan using One Piece to promote her next video game (or an album?) was definitely not on my 2024 bingo . **Edit: she also shared this in her Instagram story** [A picture of Boa Hancock on her official account.](https://twitter.com/usagilysm/status/1786391783854805296?t=nEurVbZD5wEhHzwviN70-w&s=19)


AdebayoStan

I don't think that's supposed to be Boa Hancock tbh. Megan had the snake motif for a while now, and her colour coding has always been heavily red. I really think it's just a coincidence. edit: ok I didn't know she's a weeb so it must in fact be a cosplay


ToryTheBoyBro

Check her instagram story, it literally has a picture of Boa Hancock on it 😭


Rejestered

She could have done a 100% accurate cosplay but these are albums she has to sell so they can't be copyrighted designs. Oda might have actually signed off on it if she asked but IDK, her lawyers probably said this is as close as she can get.


wattapwn

Exactly my thoughts and none of those photos or poses come off as Boa Hancock to me


downtimeredditor

I mean she kinda embodies Boa in a sense. She's hot, she's can handle herself, she's like thic hot too I'm for it


radikraze

Would


The_illusionIsREAL

But would she “would” you? (Im kidding..)


radikraze

Let me know if you find out, I need a win today


The_illusionIsREAL

Maybe she might bump into you at a local anime convention who knows 👀


DioBrandos_slut

WOAAAH FUCKING QUEEN I SWEAR 💅🏻💕 Goated taste too ofc!


The_illusionIsREAL

Queen


n00bsauce1987

Those faded covers are just like getting the 3 for $20 bootleg DVDs from the cons back in the day


Satorius96

👁️👄👁️💅


moonslammer93

That’s cool!


Chicken008

PS2 over Gamecube, woof.


TonyBlobfish

Usually I don’t like her music at all but Cobra is honestly really solid


Snap-Zipper

Pretty sure she shared a photo of Boa to her Instagram story as well. Fingers crossed that we’ll get a full cosplay!!


iamtheyeti311

Man, i was severely disappointed when I clicked the NSFW and saw nothing remotely NSFW.


meorcee

She even has her own Salome in one of the covers too, cute


dontrike

I have no idea who she is, but it's impressive


miqui_0125

These look like PS2 game cover art


boomershack

Wheeeeew


KittyCatMari1

This cosplay is 🔥🔥🔥


aletsirk0803

Ohhh so this is where those live action boa hancock memes comes from.. i see and its better knowing that she is really a fan of anime..


Knirb_

“Oh hey neat she likes one piece….Rebirth of your new self? The fuck?”


Scorpion2k4u

those covers look like really bad 80s c-movie video cassettes


FrenchieM

The PlayStation 2 lookalikes are cool


Affectionate-Club-75

Since when did boa hancock eat a lightning fruit???


Comfortable_Age_4564

ps2 game


Darkkingswrath

You think Oda will draw her like he drew Snoop Dog


MirirPaladin

if they cast her then the show REALLY is going to die after season 2 -\_-


TurdHokage

God i hope not


KrakenDragneel

Lol omg that’s awful you think she could afford a decent cosplay


No_Pause6115

Wait up! Boa is from the hood?


Good_Shop_720

We need to not allow this to happen. Definitely not Boa Hancock material. 


The_illusionIsREAL

its the hair, the name, megan herself said it, what more do you what? she also references her snake title. Its also been 9 days since this is posted. Like get over it


OperationMelodic4273

Who?


observekink

Eww.


Environmental-Ad4023

She ain't boa bro. Boa is different level


Due_Media_4165

Its just a snake woman, thats a very common trope in popculture and Oda just used it too for Boa Hancock. Its way more likely that she was inspired by that then some OP character. Boa is also just the name of a snake.


NahuelSeba

she posted a picture of Boa in her instagram 2 hrs ago, that pretty much confirms it


RedDreadsComin

Nah, Megan is a known Weeb. I would say it’s an homage to Boa Hancock at the minimum


Jareditton1

Eww


pandafondant

Pls don't. Boa isn't black. this is not about racism, it's about appropriation.


0zer0zer0

Omg a celebrity likes anime!!!111!!1! /s of course


branflakes14

This feels like a thinly veiled advertisement to me.


ssbm_rando

"thinly veiled"? I don't think she's hiding that it's an advertisement....


AdebayoStan

what about this advertisement makes you think that this is advertisement? is it the fact that it's advertising her new single?


harlojones

As in these are promotional materials for her single? Because they are 😂 it’s no secret


Sasha_shmerkovich160

shes being sued for SA


Secret-Initiative-73

Sorry I'm a buzzkill. A Boa Constrictor* is a snake. The name Boa isn't necessarily a One Piece reference.


Tricky-Drawer4614

The color scheme and hair cut is literally Boa.


harlojones

It is so blatantly one piece get your head out of the sand


AdebayoStan

I thought the same, but combine it with the outfit and the fact that she's a huge weeb, it must be a refference


Expensive-Tough-9778

Her hair style and clothing is a dead give away. Be fr for a second. Edit: she also shared this in her Instagram story [A picture of Boa Hancock on her official account.](https://twitter.com/usagilysm/status/1786391783854805296?t=nEurVbZD5wEhHzwviN70-w&s=19)


Costa21

*Boa constrictor, not contractor. And yes most people know Oda named her after the snake haha. No one's arguing OP made up the word boa. Its just the hair, design and the fact Megan has cosplayed as other anime characters before that seem to point this is a OP reference. Also there's this from her insta stories https://twitter.com/usagilysm/status/1786391783854805296?t=nEurVbZD5wEhHzwviN70-w&s=19


thespookysuzie

She posted hancock on her story…


Jinno

Yeah, unless she called herself the "Snake Empress/Princess" in some of the marketing for this, I don't know that there's anything that really conclusively connects. A boa constrictor has been a thing for a lot longer than One Piece.


Costa21

https://twitter.com/usagilysm/status/1786391783854805296?t=nEurVbZD5wEhHzwviN70-w&s=19


Jinno

Alright. That's today on Instagram. I concede.


awataurne

Yeah that was my first thought. Maybe there's more to the post than shown but I'm not sure this is related to one piece.


Yurgin

Dont let Zorro see these pictures/her if she is gonna be cast as Boa
