Megan Thee Stallion enters the villa on 'Love Island USA'
Some 'Love Island USA' fans said Megan Thee Stallion's appearance was the 'best episode of the season.'
Hot girl summer took on a new meaning when a Grammy Award-winning bombshell entered the "Love Island USA" villa for the show's June 19 episode.
Rapper Megan Thee Stallion appeared on the reality dating show for Season 7 episode 15 to host a challenge and promote her new swimsuit line, "Hot Girl Summer."
"Love Island USA" features a group of single twenty-somethings known as "Islanders" who must stay coupled up to remain at the villa. As it airs, fans get to cast votes for their favorite couples and one winning pair walks away with $100,000.
While the show is no stranger to big-name guest appearances — "Summer House" star Paige DeSorbo hosted a challenge earlier this month — Megan Thee Stallion made history as the first platinum recording artist to make a cameo on the series.
It comes as the American iteration of the dating show earned more than one billion minutes in views in the week after its debut, per Deadline. Here's what to know about Megan Thee Stallion's appearance.
