On Monday, Megan Thee Stallion went to Instagram Live to give a tearful update after she was denounced as the victim of a shooting in the Hollywood Hills of Los Angeles. In mid-July, TMZ reported that Megan was in an SUV with singer and rapper Tory Lanez when she was shot in the foot, before police arrived as a result of a riot call. Days later, Megan shared a statement on Instagram admitting that a “crime was committed against me and committed with the intention of physically harming me,” but withdrew from any other statement soon after.
“They shot me in both feet. I had to have surgery to remove the bullets. It was very scary, ”Megan said in her first video appearance after the incident, confirming the shooting. “Oh Lord, I didn’t think I was going to cry. I had to have surgery. It was super scary. It was the worst experience of my life. “
Later in the video, Megan tried to dispel the rumors that arose from her silence. “It is not funny,” she continued. “There is nothing to joke about. There was nothing for them to start making false stories. I didn’t put my hands on anyone. I didn’t deserve to be shot. I didn’t do shit. Thank God the bullets didn’t touch the bones. They did not break the tendons. I know that my mom, my dad, my grandmother had to be taking care of me with that because where the bullet hit, everything was lost. Motherfuckers were there. Not that she was protecting anyone. He just wasn’t ready to speak. That’s not bullshit that you immediately connect to the Internet and start talking about. ”
