In a bombshell of a new confession, via her newly dropped Amazon Prime documentary In Her Words, Grammy Award-winning rapper Megan Thee Stallion claims she had lied in that interview conducted by Gayle King in 2022, pertaining to her affair with fellow rapper Tory Lanez. Megan-who topped the charts with hits like “Hot Girl Summer”-was candidly candid in that very documentary about how the pressures and conflicts mounted over public utterances regarding the incident of July 2020.
As starkly as possible, in In Her Words, Megan overtly confesses, “Yes, bitch. I lied to Gayle King, bitch. First of all, I ain’t know that bitch was even finna ask me about that s-t. I thought we was gonna talk about this shooting.” Continuing with the same brutal frankness, she voiced her frustration as an outburst: “Why is you asking me about f–king Tory? That’s not what this is about. Even if I was … I f–ked that n–a like once, maybe twice on a drunk night. You kept catching me out of my f–king mind.”
The revelations about her interaction with Gayle King, one of America’s most respected broadcast journalists, add a new layer of complexity to the already controversial case involving Megan and Tory Lanez. During the interview, which was on CBS Mornings this April 2022, King asked Megan if she had any relationship with Lanez amid rumors that the two were an item. Megan wouldn’t be as candid but remained firm in her denial of a sexual relationship: “We were not dating. We were really close, we were friends. We hung out, like, every day.” And when pressed further if intimate, Megan said, “Like sexual? Umm, I didn’t have a sexual relationship with Tory.”
The shooting incident received significant media attention and litigation in court, which resulted in Lanez being found guilty on various counts, including assault with a semiautomatic firearm. Megan’s admission in her documentary will most likely raise new questions regarding her original statement and her motive for making them, but for now, the star’s keen eye on her music career and commitment to personal growth is still all too relatable to their followers.
The documentary details Megan’s journey of trauma, public scrutiny, and healing from the shooting incident through to the court proceedings that followed. As she reflects on how she handled the King interview, her words speak to the challenges of navigating a high-profile incident in the public eye and maintaining control over her narrative amidst rampant speculation.
With In Her Words, Megan has had the opportunity to be able to tell her side of the story, in her terms beyond the headlines to share a more intimate unfiltered perspective about what happened. This probably shocked a great many, and yet Megan’s confronting her past is adding layers to her image of an artist who doesn’t stop short of confronting the complex and often difficult realities of her life. While her fans and the media react to this revelation, Megan remains steadfastly in the spotlight, using her voice to fight the battles of fame and regain her narrative.
