Grimes made her Saturday Night Live acting debut as Princess Peach alongside her partner Elon Musk over the weekend, but now she’s opening up about the “scary” panic attack that followed.

The 33-year-old singer revealed on Instagram Tuesday that she had a panic attack after the show and was hospitalized. 

Grimes shared a backstage photo of herself with Miley Cyrus, who was the musical guest on Saturday’s episode. She wrote, “Forgot to post these cuz I somehow caused myself to have a panic attack and went to the hospital yesterday which tbh was quite scary and I suppose it’s a good time to start therapy 😑😑😑."

“But nonetheless – wowwwww @mileycyrus is good live and so chill!” Grimes added.

Grimes also thanked the SNL staff and gushed over her Tesla boss boyfriend and father of their son, despite the fact it would “upset” her fans.

“So grateful to the SNL team for being so kind and letting me sneak in as princess peach snd so proud of my beautiful E (which I know will upset the grimes fans so I apologize in advance) but he killed it,” the “Oblivion” singer concluded her post.

Before the show, Grimes teased her SNL debut, writing, “Tune into SNL tonight to watch me try acting!”

Grimes wore the Princess Peach costume in a Super Mario Bros. sketch in which Musk played the evil Wario, who was on trial for murdering Super Mario during a go-kart race after tossing a banana peel at him and making his car spin out. A classic Mario Kart scenario. 

If you're still wondering how to pronounce Grimes and Musk's 12-month-old son's name  X AE A-Xii, Musk joked in his monologue that it's pronounced like a "cat running across the keyboard."
