Kelsey Nicole is someone who became a huge name when it came to the Tory Lanez shooting trial. Of course, she used to be best friends with Megan Thee Stallion. However, their friendship broke apart after Nicole was present the night Meg was shot. Overall, there were a lot of rumors about what happened that night. Based on the rule of law, it was Tory who ultimately shot Meg. That said, there were some theories out there that it was actually none other than Nicole herself. This was ultimately never proven, although Meg and Kelsey remain former friends.
Recently, Kelsey Nicole was thrust back into the spotlight thanks to Meg’s beef with Nicki Minaj. With the track “Hiss,” Meg ended up launching Nicki into a fury. Over the last few days, Nicki has been working on her response and she has been doing so with a lot of gusto. It is clear she wants to create the best response possible, and fans have been dialed into the whole situation. Well, at midnight on Monday, Nicki launched her diss track called “Big Foot.” Now, it appears as though Kelsey is giving the song her co-sign.
Above, you can see a screenshot where it becomes clear that Nicole has been liking some tweets. The main one is praise for “Big Foot,” which proves that Nicole has decided to take sides. “Me going to sleep knowing Nicki’s pen game is unmatched! #bigfoot,” the tweet reads. Although the Barbz are loving the track, not everyone is feeling the same. In fact, some believe this song is ruining Nicki’s legacy in real time. Moreover, there are even people who believe this is a sign that Nicki needs Safaree Samuels back. There is a Stan civil war going on, with Nicki and Meg being the two sides.
For now, Megan is remaining cool, calm, and collected. She has yet to react to the new song, and it remains to be seen if she will. That said, stay tuned to HNHH for the latest news and updates from around the music world. We will continue to keep you informed.

While Megan Thee Stallion and Tory Lanez are the main parties in their ongoing trial, a third party, Kelsey Nicole, is also involved. In fact, Lanez’s defense attorney has previously argued that it was Kelsey who shot Megan. Regardless, the trio continues to make headlines for their involvement in what is one of the most popular Hip Hop scandals in recent times. As more information unfolds, it’s important to note that Tory Lanez has already been found guilty and is awaiting sentencing.
Kelsey Nicole, born Kelsey Harris, was once attached to the hip with Megan. The pair, who were best friends once upon a time, have had a public fallout in the media. Since the infamous shooting incident, there have been instances of online antagonizing, diss tracks, retracted testimonies, and much more. It’s also safe to bet that there’s no coming back from their parting. Both women have begun to move on with their respective lives without each other.
Megan Thee Stallion & Kelsey Nicole’s Friendship
The two Houston natives met at Prairie View A&M University and established a close bond. Together, they became well-known on campus for their outgoing personalities and sisterhood. Kelsey Nicole eventually worked as Megan’s assistant after the latter achieved mainstream success. What seemed like an unbreakable friendship would later crumble after a harrowing event on July 12, 2020.
The Infamous Shooting Incident

Megan and Kelsey usually went to parties and events together. As Megan’s assistant, Kelsey was right by her friend’s side in public and on social media. Following a party at Kylie Jenner’s house, Megan was shot in the foot following an argument with Tory Lanez while inside a vehicle with him and Kelsey. The “HER” rapper crawled to a neighboring house, and the authorities were called to the scene. Megan has gone on record to admit that she, at first, sought to protect Lanez. When the police arrived, she claimed she had stepped on some glass. However, after the doctor’s report revealed bullet fragments in her foot, she decided to come clean.
She further stated that indeed, Tory Lanez was initially remorseful about the shooting. However, she was upset that he allegedly offered her and Kelsey a million dollars to keep hush about the ordeal. In an interview with Gayle King, Megan explained that she feared Lanez was aggravated and she began to fear for her life as he kept firing shots. Later in 2022, Megan reported that while she received treatment at the hospital, Kelsey Nicole paid Tory Lanez a visit. Their meeting understandably left her dumbfounded.
“I’m like, ‘Kelsey, as my best friend, why would you meet up with the person you saw shoot your best friend,’” she said. Kelsey’s response was that she wanted to hear Lanez’s version of events. Allegedly, the “Broke In A Minute” rapper called Kelsey over to apologize. Worse yet, he allegedly promised to fund her business ventures if she stayed quiet.
Kelsey Nicole’s Responses
After Megan shared information about her ex-best friend allegedly meeting up with Lanez, Kelsey took to social media to respond. On Instagram, she accused Megan of playing “social media games.” Furthermore, she said she would break everything down ”when it was her turn to speak.” Fans of Megan Thee Stallion have since revisited the infamous video response, calling Kelsey out as a falsifier.
On November 20, 2020, Megan The Stallion released “Shots Fired,” the first track off her debut album, Good News. The single was in response to Lanez’s album Daystar, in which he mocked Megan severally while referencing the shooting. Kelsey later joined in on the mix, releasing the diss track “Bussin Back.” On the track, she mocked Megan, accusing her former friend of betraying her.
A Shocking Twist In Court

In December 2022, Kelsey Nicole was slated to testify about her version of events during the shooting. On the third day of Lanez’s criminal trial, Kelsey shocked the world by staying silent. In addition to this, she altered her detailed statement made in September, three months earlier. While in court, Kelsey invoked her Fifth Amendment rights and blamed her memory loss on being “under the influence.” She also blamed postpartum issues, grief, and anxiety for her mixed testimony. Deputy District Attorney, Kathy Ta, asked if Lanez offered her a million dollars to keep hush. Kelsey simply replied, “That’s not the exact wording. He mentioned the million, but again it’s a blur.”
Judge David Herriford, who presides over the case, granted Kelsey immunity. Even though she was told there was no plan to prosecute her, she maintained her silence.
