Her second studio album, Traumazine, was released in August and has since reached #1 on the iTunes U.S. album chart. On top of that, the artist has also grown her acting career and recently appeared in the Starz drama series P-Valley, the Disney+ exclusive She-Hulk: Attorney At Law, and more. But last night, the 27-year-old artist revealed that now she has her mind set on starring in a hit Netflix series. While acting as host and the musical guest on the Oct. 15 episode of Saturday Night Live (SNL), the “Sweetest Pie” singer used her opening monologue to audition for the next show she would like to appear in. But before she did so, the rapper introduced herself to the audience, talked about her accomplishments, and added: “But there’s so much more to me than meets the eye. For example, I’m a really good actress. Like I don’t want to toot my own horn or nothin’, but I think I do a pretty good British accent.” She then readied herself to show the crowd her skills, announcing, “Alright, check this out,” before she put on her best British accent and joked, “Put me in Bridgerton, bitch.” The crowd laughed and cheered–and who knows, it could happen. In December of last year, Stallion inked a first-look deal with Netflix and is working on a series with them, as reported by Deadline, although there are no details yet about the upcoming show. A recent Instagram update also led many to speculate that she might appear in Netflix’s top show, Stranger Things, but nothing has been confirmed. Stallion is now the second female rapper to host and perform on the same episode of SNL, the first being Queen Latifah back in 2004. In fact, she also followed in Latifah’s footsteps this year when she became the second female rapper to perform at the Academy Awards. It’s possible that Stallion dreams of becoming a top actress like Latifah as well. The 52-year-old recently received rave reviews for her performance in Season 3 of The Equalizer. As for what’s next, fans will just have to wait and see. The Grammy-winning artist did hint at needing to take a break from performing to help her rest and recharge; and with the recent release of her website promoting mental health and resources, there’s never been a better time to lead by example!
