Megan Thee Stallion got emotional over the weekend as she closed out her performance as Zidler in Moulin Rouge! The Musical.

On Saturday, April 25, the rapper, 31, was seen wiping away tears alongside her fellow cast members as the audience cheered following the Broadway show, per a video shared on X.

“We love you!” one person continuously shouted in the clip, before Megan eventually smiled and took a bow amid the praise.

PEOPLE has reached out to Megan’s rep for comment.

Megan’s performance came after she revealed in a statement to PEOPLE earlier that day that she’d decided to end her relationship with Dallas Mavericks player Klay Thompson, 36, several months after they took their romance public.

“I’ve made the decision to end my relationship with Klay," Megan said. "Trust, fidelity and respect are non-negotiable for me in a relationship, and when those values are compromised, there’s no real path forward. I’m taking this time to prioritize myself and move ahead with peace and clarity.”

The “Savage” musician’s message came after she shared a pointed post on her Instagram Stories earlier in the day appearing to accuse Thompson of “cheating” on her and claiming that she needed a “break” after dealing with him.

“Cheating, had me around your whole family playing house… got ‘cold feet,’ ” she wrote in her post over a black background. 

“Holding you down through all your HORRIBLE mood swings and treatment towards me during your basketball season, now you don’t know if you can be 'monogamous????' ” she continued. “Bitch I need a REAL break after this one .. bye yall.”

PEOPLE previously reached out to a rep for Thompson for comment on the post.

While Megan did not name Thompson in the social media message, she has shared several loved-up photos with the NBA star in recent months. The former couple were first linked last summer, before making their red carpet debut at the rapper's Inaugural Pete & Thomas Foundation Gala in New York City on July 16.

In January, Megan opened up to PEOPLE about her relationship with Thompson, saying that he came into her life when she least expected it. 

The "HISS" hitmaker said, “Well, I don't never want to tell [anybody] to just jump in a relationship just because everybody else got one, and I'm not going to tell you to just jump in a relationship because you have to. I didn't even know I was going to be in my relationship, to be honest.”

Megan added at the time, “This is one of the first times that I've ever been just overly comfortable."

She then shared with her signature giggle, “I'm comfy, babe!”
