Megan Thee Stallion Discloses Details About Alleged Shooting incident Involving Tory Lanez.
For the first time on television, Grammy Award-winning rapper, Megan Thee Stallion addressed her shooting allegations against Tory Lanez.
In an emotional interview with Gayle King on CBS This Morning, the rapper reflected on what transpired the night of the June 2020 shooting, how she feared for her life, why she initially told investigators that the bullet injuries in her foot were caused by broken glass and her reaction to critics accusing her of lying.
Tory has been accused of shooting Megan in the foot on their way back from an event as long back as 2020. While Tory Lanez has been investigated and charged to court for the alleged shooting, this is the first time Megan has agreed to an interview to finally speak about it.
Megan Thee Stallion, born Megan Pete, told King she was leaving a house party at Kylie Jenner’s house in the Hollywood Hills with Lanez and a friend from Houston (Kelsea Harris), plus a driver in the car.

There was an argument in the vehicle “because I was ready to go and everybody else wasnvt ready to go. But that’s, like, normal friend stuff,” she explained. She didn’t think it would escalate to violence. “It shouldn’t have got this crazy,” she added.
When she got out of the car, “everything happens so fast,” Megan recalled. “And all I hear is this man screaming. And he said, ‘Dance, bitch.’ And he started shooting. And I’m just like, ‘Oh, my God.’ Like, he shot a couple of times. And I was so scared.”
She clarified that the shooter was “standing up over the window shooting” and she was fearful of making any sudden movements.
“I don’t know if he’s gonna shoot something that’s, like, super important. I don’t know if he could shoot me and kill me,” she said, tearing up. “I was really scared, because I had never been shot at before,” she added.
Megan explained that she had initially lied about the cause of her injury to prevent them from being hurt after the police had stopped them.
