Megan Thee Stallion Addresses Beef With Nicki Minaj

US rapper, Megan Thee Stallion has spoken about her beef with her colleague, Nicki Minaj.
She spoke in an interview with Billboard.
According to Megan, she doesn’t know the root cause of their beef.
Asked whether the beef could be reconciled, she said: “I still to this day don’t know what the problem is. I don’t even know what could be reconciled because I, to this day, don’t know what the problem is.”
Megan and Minaj’s beef started after fans began pitting them against each other on social media.
The situation has made the artists supposed rivals. Megan and Minaj have avoided engaging or collaborating since fans began fuelling their alleged beef.
On other artists dissing her in their songs, Megan said, “I’m going to keep doing what I’m doing. If people feel like I’m somebody to aim at, then I must be pretty high up if you’re reaching up at me.
 
“I must be some kind of competition. That makes me feel good. That makes me feel like I could rap because if I wasn’t the s**t, y’all wouldn’t be worried about me.”

Jury finds Tory Lanez guilty of shooting Megan Thee Stallion

Tory Lanez was found guilty on all three counts in the closely watched trial over whether he shot Megan Thee Stallion in the foot, ending a nearly two-week trial and setting the stage for a potentially lengthy prison sentence.

On Friday, a jury in Los Angeles delivered its verdict (Dec. 23). Lanez was found guilty on all counts, including assault with a semiautomatic firearm, carrying a loaded, unregistered firearm in a vehicle, and recklessly discharging a firearm. He could spend up to 22 years in prison.

Tory Lanez performs on stage during Wireless Festival 2019 on July 05, 2019 in London.

Upon the reading of the verdict, Lanez’s father, who was present in the gallery, began screaming. “This wicked system. Shame of all of you!” he cried out.

Throughout the trial, Lanez’s defense team did everything they could to cast doubt on who pulled the trigger, imagining Megan’s ex-friend and assistant Harris as the shooter. They relied on inconsistent statements made by Megan in the more than two years since the incident, as well as an account from alleged eyewitness Sean Kelly, to make their case. Kelly, on the other hand, undermined the defense team’s theory by giving confusing and contradictory testimony from the stand on Tuesday, claiming he saw a muzzle flash near where Megan and Harris were scuffling in the street near his house, but also that he saw a man matching Lanez’s description holding a gun and, at another point, that he never saw a gun at all.

Prosecutors, on the other hand, have repeatedly emphasized Megan’s emotional testimony last week, when the Grammy winner held back sobs as she recounted the ordeal and said she’s received severe public backlash in the aftermath of the incident, saying at one point, “I wish he had just shot and killed me if I would have known I was going to go through this torture.” In addition to Megan’s direct claims that Lanez was the one who fired the gun, prosecutors questioned the defense team’s theory that Harris was to blame. Deputy District Attorney Alexander Bott strongly suggested in closing arguments that Harris, who previously told prosecutors that Lanez shot Megan and assaulted her when she tried to intervene, contradicted her prior statements only after being threatened or paid off.

Megan was shot at least once in the foot in the early morning hours of July 12, 2020, on her way home from a small party thrown by Kylie Jenner. According to Megan, after a fight broke out between Lanez, Harris, and herself in an SUV driven by Lanez’s security guard Jaquan Smith, she exited the vehicle only to be shot at multiple times by Lanez, who she claimed at one point shouted, “Dance, b—-” while firing out the window. That is clearly the version of the story that jurors, who reached their unanimous verdict in less than two days, chose to believe.

If Lanez or Smith had testified, the trial might have continued past Christmas, but on Wednesday, the rapper announced he would not be doing so, and the defense chose not to call Smith, citing procedural complications and the possibility of a delay that might have required the jury to reconvene after the holiday.

On Thursday, Megan was not present when the verdict was read.
