Megan Thee Stallion and Patti LaBelle are now besties.

In an interview with PEOPLE, Megan shared how she met the legendary singer while taping  her newest docuseries KPOPPED, “where western icons reimagine one of their biggest hits by collaborating with K-pop stars.”

“I was like, ‘Ms. Patti, girl, what you doing out here? How do you feel?’ Me and Ms. Patti were, like, besties by the end of the whole experience,” said Megan, who is also an executive producer of the series.

“I really felt like we were related. As soon as we saw each other, it was just big hugs, kisses and we were locked at the hip the whole time,” the “Mamushi” rapper says. “And I was like, ‘Dang, I cannot believe that Patti LaBelle knows who I am and she likes me. I must be the bomb because if Patti LaBelle gives me the cosign, I’m the one.’”

Lionel Richie, an executive producer of the series, spoke about how Megan and Pattie reminded him of each other.

“Listen, she takes charge… The Godmother of Soul was there on the scene. When I first got in the business, Patti was in the business about the same time I was coming in. She was immediately likable. You cannot not like her.”

Along with fanning out over meeting the iconic singer, Megan noted how she was drawn to the series because of her love for K-pop.

“I wanted to go over there and learn,” Megan said about filming the show in Seoul. “I wanted to go over there and fan out, so it was a perfect opportunity to do some work but also have some fun, which is what I love to make my work feel like. It didn’t even feel like work. It felt like a vacation.”

‘KPOPPED’ is currently airing on Apple TV+.
