announced she quit her historic role as the first-ever female Zidler in Moulin Rouge! The Musical just one month into making her Broadway debut.

'Hotties, my last performance as Zidler in @moulinrougebway will be May 1,' the 31-year-old hip-hop star - who boasts 78.7 million social media followers - wrote on Monday.

'It's been such an honor to be part of thee Moulin Rouge family and I've met so many amazing people in this theater! Y'all work so hard and I have so much respect for the dedication, the stamina, the work ethic, the time and the effort y'all put into the work!

'I'm so grateful for the cast and crew that made this experience so meaningful. And to all the Hotties that showed up or planned to attend, thank you for supporting me during this incredible journey! I love y'all! See you soon.'

Stallion (born Megan Pete) was originally scheduled to perform at the Al Hirschfeld Theatre in Midtown Manhattan until May 17.

The three-time winner hinted the end was near last Saturday when she broke down in tears during the curtain call as seen in fan-captured footage.

It was the day after Stallion confirmed that she ended her nine-month relationship with 'cheating' Dallas Mavericks shooting guard Klay Thompson when he got 'cold feet' after 'playing house' and introducing her to his 'whole family.'

'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?"' the Lover Girl rapper blasted via Instagram story.

'Bi*** I need a real break [from dating] after this one.'

Stallion had also suffered 'extreme exhaustion, dehydration, vasoconstriction and low metabolic levels' in the middle of the March 31 play and was transported to a local hospital for treatment (pictured April 4)

'Last night was a real wake-up call for me. I've been pushing myself past my limits lately, running on empty, and my body finally said enough,' the native Texan wrote of her health scare. 'It honestly scared me. I thought I was gonna faint on stage, I really tried to push through my performance but I just couldn't'

Stallion - who pulls 25.6 million monthly listeners on Spotify - has sold over 10.5 million records worldwide since her Hot Girl Summer debut in 2019.
