Tory Lanez addresses Megan Thee Stallion shooting allegations in Instagram rant

October 20, 2020

Tory Lanez addressed his alleged shooting of Megan Thee Stallion on Instagram Live Tuesday night.

“For the last three months of my life, I’ve been in this place where I’ve been bashed, I’ve been cut through — just people every single day just coming at me, coming at me, coming at me,” Lanez, 28, began.

“It’s crazy because the whole thing about it is — when this whole debacle, or whatever you call it, came about, the whole time was like … She knows what happened, I know what happened, and we know that what you’re saying and what the alleged things and the alleged accusations of my name is [sic] are not true.”

“It’s falsified information, it’s false information and it’s not accurate information,” Lanez continued. “I don’t ever wanna come off like I’m here to bash this girl or I’m here to talk down about this girl or ever be at a place where, like, I’m disrespecting her, because to me, as a person, she’s still my friend. No matter what — even if she doesn’t look at me like that — I look at her like she’s still my friend.”

Lanez continued to quibble over varying points of the shooting incident in the video, though he doesn’t issue a direct denial of whether or not he shot Megan.

Megan, for her part, weighed in on the clip on Twitter, writing simply, “This n—a genuinely crazy.”

It’s a more succinct approach than in September, when he released an album, “Daystar,” on which he addressed the shooting with every track, asking at one point, “How the f–k you get shot in your foot, don’t hit no bones or tendons?”

Lanez allegedly shot Megan in July after a party the two attended. He was charged Oct. 8 in connection with the incident, and faces 22 years in prison. “[Time] will [tell],” Lanez tweeted of the charges. “And the truth will come to the light … I have all faith in God to show that.”

“Even as a victim, I have been met with skepticism and judgment,” Megan wrote in a New York Times op-ed about the experience last week. “The way people have publicly questioned and debated whether I played a role in my own violent assault proves that my fears about discussing what happened were, unfortunately, warranted.”
