Megan Thee Stallion’s Bedazzled Neon Manicure Has Us Counting Down to Summer

Are you scared of snakes? It’s super fair if you are, but you don’t have to worry. Megan Thee Stallion is here to protect you. (Or maybe she’s here to send them after you if you betray her? I don’t entirely get the vibe, so use your own best judgement.)

On May 3, nail art extraordinaire Megan Thee Stallion shared an ultra-cool new manicure that’s putting the charm in “snake charmer.” And the snake!! She first showed off the design via Instagram in an emoji-code captioned post: eyeballs, snake, video game console.

Set in a bright color palette I can only compare to this neon marker set, each stiletto nail features a different 3D design, with most containing a tiny reptilian-looking eyeball dead center. While the base shade is purple chrome, other elements and intricacies somehow steal the show: swirls of neon green and orange, gemstone scales, you get the vision.

Next to the nails, the 29-year-old’s post showcases a bright yellow wig with blunt bangs and an array of (fake?) video games that feature our heroine. Instead of Playstation’s “PS” logo, we get a similar looking “MS,” with the word “PLAYSTATION” replaced by “MTSTALLION.” The game itself is called “BOA: Curse of Thee Serpent Woman,” and each iteration shows different cover art of Megan posing with a big snake.

The whole thing is a nod to the character Boa Hancock from the anime/manga One Piece (the only female warlord of the sea) who Megan also pays homage to in her outfit and hairstyle. “Shawty got that One Piece knowledge and no one even realize that’s what she posting bout,” commented a fan, while others quickly guessed that the rapper’s next single will be called “Boa.”

And because this is Megan Thee Stallion, a single wild mani just wasn’t enough. In the last photo in the set, she shows off another set: long nude stiletto talons with some negative space gold chrome swirls and tips. Both designs were most likely the work of her regular nail artist, Coca Michelle.

There’s no word if or when the game or potential song will be released, so if you want to embrace the vision you’ll have to do something else entirely: call your nail artist, and make sure they have neons in stock.
