Megan Thee Stallion “never plays” when it comes to her parents or her fans.

The “Mamushi” artist, 29, made sure to give her flowers to the “Hotties” and her parents Holly Thomas and Joseph Pete, Jr. during her speech at the premiere of her Megan Thee Stallion: In Her Words documentary on Wednesday, Oct. 30.

“[There’s] so many people up in here,” the singer said, getting emotional as she took the stage. “It is blowing my mind how many Hotties are up here right now… Goddamn, I can’t believe I started crying.”

“I want to thank each and every one of you for coming to the premiere of my documentary,” she continued. “Your support means the world to me. And this process has been years in the making.”

She went on to give a “big shout-out” to her late parents, and noted that despite her “mama” telling her “not to tell my own business,” she did it anyway, as this was the “perfect opportunity.”

“I wouldn’t be the woman I am today without Holly Thomas,” she said, honoring her late mother, who died in 2019 from cancer. “So mommy, I love you.”

In the speech, the musician also discussed her work with director and producer Nneka Onuorah on creating the documentary — which she said she was hesitant to do at first. However, she said she eventually conceded and they “did that,” even becoming the “greatest friends.”

“To have somebody follow you around all day, every day, and recording your most intimate moments, even when you don’t want them to, has been such an insane experience,” she said, adding that Onuorah would often film on her own phone when the musician would say “cut the cameras.”

She thanked Onuorah for keeping the documentary true to her own story and said that it has helped show who she is as a person and an artist.

“I started to watch a lot of people dehumanize me and a lot of people were trying to take control of my narrative and tell my story, so that’s why I even agreed to do the documentary in the first place. I was like, “You know what, bitch? Let me just go ahead and tell my truth and lay it out on the table because y’all don’t respect s— else, but raw and honesty,” Megan said.

“I was trying to be a cookie-cutter celebrity for y’all. I’m sorry that didn’t work out,” she added.

Per the film’s synopsis, the documentary promises to “follow the Houston native’s journey on the road to stardom as she tenaciously navigates fame, grief, pressure and success. The documentary unpacks Megan’s most vulnerable moments in a powerful way that allows fans to meet the real Megan Pete.”

“I was such in a dark place, people couldn’t even ask me how I was doing without me bursting into tears. I struggled a lot with my mental health,” she previously told PEOPLE. “I feel like people watching this are going to see… if my favorite artists could go through something like this and get through it and come out on the other end, I could do it too.”
