The Backstory: Shooting, Scandals, and Secrets
The controversy erupted back in 2020 when Megan accused rapper Tory Lanez of shooting her following an argument. The incident left her physically and emotionally scarred, prompting public shockwaves and endless speculations. In a 2022 CBS interview with Gayle King, Megan Thee Stallion, publicly stated that there was no sexual relationship between her and Lanez. However, her recent Amazon Prime documentary reveals she wasn’t entirely honest in that interview.
In her own words, Megan admits, “Yes, I lied.” She describes her shock when Gayle King questioned her about her personal life rather than focusing on the shooting itself, which was the reason for the interview. Feeling ambushed, Megan said she chose to deny the relationship to keep the focus on her experience as a victim rather than fuel a media frenzy around her personal choices.
In her documentary, she explains that the high-stakes nature of the incident led her to prioritize what she saw as the most crucial facts, even if that meant withholding certain details.
Tory Lanez & Magen…. Gayle King
In a 2022 interview with Gayle King on CBS Mornings about the July 2020 incident, Megan Thee Stallion faced questions about her relationship with Tory Lanez. During the interview, Gayle pressed Megan for clarity on their relationship status amidst the shooting allegations. Megan had accused Tory of pointing a gun at her and yelling, “Dance, b***h,” before firing, a claim that ultimately led to Tory’s conviction for assault with a semi-automatic firearm.
At that time, Megan stated she had not been intimate with Tory. However, in her recent Amazon documentary, she admitted that this wasn’t true and that the question had taken her by surprise. Megan has since clarified that her relationship with Tory, regardless of its nature, didn’t excuse or justify his actions, particularly the alleged shooting.
Now serving a 10-year sentence for the incident, it remains to be seen how Tory will respond to Megan’s latest revelation about their past relationship.
