TWICE & Megan Thee Stallion Have A New Video On The Way

After a phenomenal 2024, Megan Thee Stallion and TWICE will close the year with a soon-to-be international smash in their new collaboration, “Strategy,” previewed on Sunday (Dec. 1). The K-pop powerhouse teased the collaboration on Sunday (Dec. 1) with a 16-second preview of the music video, which will debut on Friday (Dec. 6). The snippet highlights TWICE’s sleek choreography intercut with shots of Megan commanding the scene, holding a rhinestone-encrusted megaphone. The teaser includes a snippet of Megan Thee Stallion’s verse.

She raps: “Talk with my body, that’s my strategy / Other girls tryin’, but I’m really hard to beat / He’ll be mine off my strategy, my strategy, strategy.” “Strategy” marks Megan and TWICE’s second team-up. They previously collaborated on the remix of her viral hit “Mamushi,” replacing Japanese artist Yuki Chiba with the K-pop group. The track originally appeared on Megan’s project MEGAN: ACT II. The album debuted at #3 on the Billboard charts.

TWICE & Megan Thee Stallion Tease “Strategy” Music Video

With “Strategy” on the horizon and a banner year behind her, Megan Thee Stallion continues to redefine her artistry, proving she’s as multifaceted as she is unstoppable. Her ability to merge worlds—from hip-hop to K-pop—ensures her reign remains both dynamic and enduring. Reflecting on her prolific year, Megan told Vogue, “I have the freedom to say whatever I want and put something out whenever I feel like it. That’s why I could release two projects in one year. I can wake up tomorrow and decide to do it all over again.” Her creative independence has not only fueled her output but has also cemented her as a boundary-pushing artist.

2024 also saw the release of Megan’s deeply personal documentary, Megan Thee Stallion: In Her Words, on Amazon Prime Video. The film chronicles the Grammy winner’s journey through fame, grief, and resilience, including pivotal moments such as the heartbreaking loss of her mother and manager, Holly Thomas.

Megan Thee Stallion Ends Her Year On Social Media With One Last Twerking Session

Megan Thee Stallion decided to end this year off with a bang. Her final Instagram post of 2024 will apparently be a new twerking vid that she uploaded on Wednesday night (November 27), and as such, it seems like Meg will take a break from the online space for Thanksgiving and the rest of the holiday season, although we doubt that it will be a complete drought as there’s still a lot to promote, celebrate, show off, and announce. But we also understand the Houston femcee wanting to separate from the Internet. She’s had a busy year: two projects, a Nicki Minaj beef, more Tory Lanez drama, and plenty of other developments.

For example, Megan Thee Stallion sued YouTube Milagro Gramz for allegedly spreading misinformation about the Tory Lanez case. “Plaintiff is suggesting here that merely liking, linking to, or talking about an online post regarding a public figure is a criminal offense,” Gramz’s lawyers wrote in their petition to dismiss the lawsuit.

Megan Thee Stallion’s Last IG Post Of 2024

“Rather than rebut the allegations online, Plaintiff chose to use the Courts to intimidate and silence the Defendant from exercising her First Amendment rights to publish her opinions and beliefs and also to serve as a warning to other critics that if the Plaintiff does not like what you say about her, you will likely have to deal with a federal lawsuit,” the motion against Megan Thee Stallion claims. “This is evidenced by Plaintiff’s Complaint, which reads more like a press release than a legal document. Defendant submits that that Plaintiff’s Complaint which is buttressed on dubious legal claims and irrelevant and impertinent allegations that at best only tangentially relate to the Plaintiff, fails to state a cause of action under Florida law and should be DISMISSED.”

Meanwhile, new drops like the music video for “Roc Steady” ensure that Megan Thee Stallion will stick around in 2024. This social media break won’t stop the news. Plus, fans will continue to enjoy her music until her next move manifests. Maybe the first twerking vid of 2025 will come with a big announcement. We’ll see what’s on the way…

Megan Thee Stallion Has A Murderous ‘Hottie Homecoming’ In Her New ‘Roc Steady’ Video With Flo Milli

Megan Thee Stallion is about a month removed from the release of Megan: Act II, a reissue of June’s Megan that adds new tracks. Among them is the Flo Milli-featuring “Roc Steady,” for which Meg just unveiled a new video today (November 27).

Ahead of the video came a teaser that packed a lot of exposition into ten seconds. It started with newspaper headlines reading “Murders At RSH School,” “3 Students Found Dead,” “Mysterious Bite Marks,” and “No Suspects Found.” We then get some shorts of a “Hottie Homecoming” event in a school gymnasium, including some of Meg as a cheerleader. Indeed, that’s generally what’s going on in the full video.

Meg previously explained on X (formerly Twitter) of the song’s creation, “I called Flo milli to thee studio and she kicked me and the engineer out the room for like 45 min [laughing emoji] and when I came back in I was shooookkkk.” Flo responded, “lmaooo chill i was shy [laughing emojis] can’t let nobody see my crazy side [crying emoji] we got the job done tho.”

“Roc Steady” arrived after Meg and Flo worked together on a remix of Latto’s “Sunday Service.” Meanwhile, the new video isn’t Flo’s biggest reveal of the past few days, as she just announced she’s pregnant.

Watch the “Roc Steady” video above.

Milagro Gramz Eviscerates Joe Budden For Speaking On Megan Thee Stallion’s Lawsuit Against Her

Milagro Gramz is tired of people talking about her without doing their proper research, or at least, that’s what she’s accusing Joe Budden of. The YouTuber recently took to Instagram Live and blasted the podcaster for talking about her legal battle with Megan Thee Stallion.

“So to sit up and to try to bring me up like you got a leg to stand on is crazy,” Milagro Gramz jabbed at Joe Budden. “I could see if you had a difference of opinion, and you was coming at me. But babe, you block people who don’t laugh. And I block people who waste my time, just like you. Look at you, blocked. And I’ma block some more h*es if I feel like it. So I’m just confused as to why he feels the need to do that. Okay, second of all – But I already know why. This the hate train era?

Milagro Gramz Blasts Joe Budden For Bringin Up Megan Thee Stallion Drama

“So anyway, then he decides to bring me up, you know, off the tail end of Tasha K,” Milagro Gramz continued concerning Joe Budden. “I have an issue with something that Tasha K said about me in the past. I did not like it, it was a full-fledged lie. She owes me an apology. I’ve stood on that for years. […] So I moved on with my life. […] That ain’t stop me from interacting with her because there are stories to be told and there’s different things to talk about. But do I have an active issue with Tasha K? No. It’s as simple as what I said it was. She owes me an apology. It’s a lot of s**t that I could get over with some acknowledgement. ‘Cause it’s all about principles in the first place for me. So I ain’t got to hold onto it if you address it. But she hasn’t addressed it.”

For those unaware, Megan Thee Stallion accused Milagro Gramz of spreading false information about the Tory Lanez shooting case. It seems like the case will go to trial next year, although some rumors of a settlement continue to persist in certain Internet corners. We’ll see if Joe Budden changes his tune about any of this after this call-out.

Lola Brooke Aggressively Calls Out Megan Thee Stallion’s Ex During Party

Lola Brooke and Megan Thee Stallion have never collaborated on a record, but they are part of the same generation of female rappers who have taken over the game. There’s a general understanding that many of the rappers in this class support one another. We save proof of this pack mentality firsthand on during a recent party. Lola Brooke was captured on an Instagram Story by Pardison “Pardi” Fontaine. Instead of showing love, however, Brooke decided to make her dislike of Pardi known.

Lola Brooke can be seen dancing and minding her own business out on the floor. As soon as she clocked Pardison “Pardi” Fontaine, though, her demeanor changed. She flipped off Megan Thee Stallion’s former boyfriend. Brooke did not want there to be any confusion about her intention, either. She pointed directly at Pardi to make it clear that she was addressing him. Lola Brooke then threw up her middle finger again. Brutal. Pardi was confused by the interaction. “What I do,” he asked. “What i do?” Brooke didn’t clarify what her issue was, but fans assumed it was due to Pardi’s messy split from Megan Thee Stallion.

Lola Brooke Flipped Off Pardi Fontaine During An IG Story

Megan Thee Stallion accused Pardi of cheating on her multiple times. When the former songwriter refuted these allegations, the “HISS” rapper took to Instagram Live to call him out on his gaslighting tactics. “Why are you answering? Why are you trying to make that shoe fit,” Megan asked. “Was it you getting your d*ck sucked in the same spot I was sleeping? If you said it wasn’t you, why the hell is you dissing me?” Megan Thee Stallion’s vitriol has led to her fanbase largely writing Pardi off as a cheater and liar.

Lola Brooke has never publicly commented on the messy split between Megan and Pardi. What she has commented on, however, is the importance of standing by other female rappers. She told USA Today the bond she’s developed with the likes of Megan and Flo Milli are crucial to surviving (and thriving) in music. “It’s something that I feel like I need because guys don’t always understand this,” she explained to the outlet. “No matter what I’m what I’m doing in this world, I do feel like sisterhood is very important.” She definitely lived up to her word when it came to Pardi.

The Opposing Lawyer In Megan Thee Stallion’s Hostile Work Environment Lawsuit Has Reportedly Been Sanctioned

Megan Thee Stallion In Her Words LA Premiere 2024 (1024x437)

Back in April, Megan Thee Stallion was named in a salacious lawsuit by a former employee. In the filing, the “Bigger In Texas” rapper’s ex-videographer Emilio Garcia accused Megan Thee Stallion of lost wages, harassment, and fostering a hostile work environment.

After a few legal hiccups, there appears to have been an update in the case. According to documents (viewable here) obtained by legal journalist Meghann Cuniff, Garcia’s lawyer, Ronald Leonardo Zambrano, has been sanctioned by the presiding judge, US District Judge Gregory H. Woods.

Within the court documents, Woods called out Zambrano for missing the in-person pretrial conference despite receiving proper notification. Although Zambrano attempted to have to avoid the decision, ultimately the judge didn’t agree with his arguments.

Now, Megan has the chance to recoup legal fees for the missed conference. Through her lawyer, Alex Spiro, Megan can file the formal request before the December 2 deadline. According to Cuniff, these tally up to $6,000.

As far as Garcia’s lost wages, harassment, and fostering a hostile work environment case is concerned it will move forward. In addition to the filing, Garcia alleged that he was force to witness a sexual encounter with Megan and a woman as they were trapped in a moving car. However, Megan’s attorney has denied the accusation.

“This is an employment claim for money — with no sexual harassment claim filed and with salacious accusations to attempt to embarrass her,” he said. “We will deal with this in court.”

Photographer Who Sued Megan Thee Stallion Forced To Pay Her Lawyers

Megan Thee Stallion has had her fair share of court battles. The rapper was famously embroiled in a criminal case against Tory Lanez, and more recently, she was sued by a photographer named Emilio Garcia. He claims the rapper trapped him inside a vehicle while she had sex with a woman. Garcia then accused Megan Thee Stallion of creating a hostile, abusive work environment in which conditions were “intolerable.” His lawsuit fell apart, however, on November 19.

Meghann Cuniff reported that Emilio Garcia was sanctioned by a federal judge on Tuesday. The photog failed to appear during pretrial conference, and has subsequently been ordered to pay the fees of Megan Thee Stallion’s lawyers. Garcia has also been ordered to pay Roc Nation’s lawyers, as the notable record label represents Megan. Prior to the sanction, One of Megan’s lawyers, Alex Spiro, claimed that Garcia was merely seeking money. “This is an employment claim for money,” he told reporters. “No sexual harassment claim filed and with salacious accusations to attempt to embarrass her. We will deal with this in court.”

Megan Thee Stallion’s Team Called Plaintiff A ‘Con Artist’

Megan Thee Stallion’s other lawyer, Mari Henderson, went a step further and labeled Garcia a con artist who was attempting to use his proximity to the rapper to his advantage. “Plaintiff is a con artist who is manipulating the judicial system to act as his publicist and bullhorn,” they wrote. “In a desperate attempt to boost his failed singing career while trying to tear down the successful career of Megan.” To make matters worse, Spiro and Henderson questioned the competency of Garcia’s work when he was with Megan.

The legal reps alleged that Garcia falsified invoices and “overcharged for incomplete services” while serving as Megan’s photographer. They also accused him of seeking reimbursements for money he didn’t actually spend. Garcia was let go from Megan’s team in June 2023. Garcia argued that his termination was retaliatory after voicing concerns about the hostile work environment. Unfortunately, for him, the lawsuit has wound up costing a lot of money.

Megan Thee Stallion Could Score Legal Win After Opposing Lawyers Miss The Mark

Megan Thee Stallion continues to face a lawsuit for alleged harassment from her former photographer Emilio Garcia, but she might find a win within it soon. According to journalist Meghann Cuniff, lawyers representing Garcia didn’t attend a pre-trial conference in Manhattan federal court last week, and thus could face possible sanctions. In fact, the judge reportedly issued an order for them to explain why they shouldn’t face these sanctions via a legal filing by tomorrow (Tuesday, November 12). The next pre-trial conference will reportedly take place on November 18 in Manhattan federal court, and all parties (including the defense) must appear.

Furthermore, the court stated that the plaintiff’s legal team did not motion to adjourn the conference before its scheduled time. Of course, none of this means that Megan Thee Stallion will automatically beat this alleged harassment case, but it could pose serious consequences for her opposition. This follows some other online narratives that have spread about the Houston femcee. One of them is Jason Lee’s allegations that she fought Winnie Harlow at a Michael Rubin party. But some of these narratives also cross over into the legal realm.

Megan Thee Stallion Harassment Lawsuit Gets Crucial Update

Undeniably, the main one that comes to mind is the conviction of Tory Lanez for shooting Megan Thee Stallion, which remains a highly controversial matter. There are still a lot of conflicting narratives around his appeal, her assessments of the situation, and other details that came about during the trial. Sadly, we seem no closer to detoxifying that discussion and focusing on the facts above all else, and so every motion for appeal or response to it carries some backlash. Also, it doesn’t seem like Meg became distracted with all the ruckus, as she remains committed to upholding the truth and justice in her eyes.

Another legal matter that Megan Thee Stallion hopes to dismiss quickly is a lawsuit alleging copyright infringement from Plies. It concerns his track “Me & My Goons” and her GloRilla collab (and eventual Cardi B remix) “Wanna Be.” We’ll see what updates emerge in the near future concerning these varied legal matters, especially considering their differing implications, jurisdictions, and severities.

Jason Lee Alleges Megan Thee Stallion & Winnie Harlow Fought At Michael Rubin’s Party

Megan Thee Stallion has a lot of gossip floating around her name right now, whether it’s her shooting case involving Tory Lanez or album sales. Of course, she’s always combated these narratives and many others online with a lot of support, but some scandalous stories probably won’t get any sort of explanation. While we can’t really call that when it comes to this next rumor, it wouldn’t be the first time the Houston femcee popped out to address stories like these. The speculation comes from Jason Lee, who recently alleged on his podcast that she fought with Winnie Harlow at a Michael Rubin party. For the record, the timeline on this allegation is unclear.

“Megan, listen, I wish you the best. You seem happy today,” Jason Lee began his remarks on Megan Thee Stallion and Winnie Harlow. “Everybody keeps asking me to release the tea on Megan that I said I was going to release. She got in a fight with Winnie Harlow at Michael Rubin’s party. I don’t have all the full details yet, and I’m waiting on the video. But I’ve texted Megan and Winnie, so there you go. Boom. Have a good weekend. It’s time for thoughts and prayers.”

Jason Lee’s Alleged Tea About Megan Thee Stallion & Winnie Harlow

Maybe we’ll get a video one day, or maybe this allegation from Jason Lee will remain just a stop on the gossip train without confirmation. Regardless, Megan Thee Stallion has more pressing matters to attend. Plies recently issued a copyright infringement lawsuit against her, Cardi B, GloRilla, and Soulja Boy for allegedly taking his instrumental without permission. Meg’s producer clapped back at this legal filing, so we’ll see if it results in anything. Maybe it’s another case in which a quick settlement or reconciliation becomes water under the bridge.

As for Winnie Harlow, this isn’t the first time that she became part of some salacious hip-hop gossip, such as cheating rumors surrounding Offset. But this is all just speculative, and we doubt either will ever address it outright. We’ll see what other narratives and storylines Megan Thee Stallion finds herself in, and whether or not the conversation will ever detoxify a little more.

Plies’ Lawyer Denies Claim That New Lawsuit Is Targeting Black Women

Plies isn’t playing around. The rapper decided to sue a host of superstars on November 6 on the grounds that they unlawfully sampled one of his songs. The superstars named in the copyright infringement suit include Megan Thee Stallion, GloRilla and Soulja Boy. Most of the talk surrounding the suit, however, has revolved around Megan and GloRilla. Fans of both artists have flocked to IG comment sections to deride Plies for his perceived attack towards Black women. The backlash has been so severe, in fact, that the rapper’s lawyer has issued a statement.

Aaron J. Thornton assured the public that his client, Plies, has no vendetta against Megan Thee Stallion or GloRilla. He actually wants the labels to pay out, given what he believes is a lack of proper procedure. “This lawsuit isn’t a strategically timed attack against Black women,” Thornton wrote. “Plies has said a lot of meaningful and important things in support of Black women.” The lawyer that posited that the rapper is wanting to be properly compensated by the powers that be. Not the artists who paid tribute to him by allegedly sampling his work.

Plies Claims To Be Fans Of Both Megan And GloRilla

“This is a lawsuit where the first name up who has the actual pockets here is Universal Music Group,” Thornton asserted. “My communication is directed to the record labels, the people who actually own the music.” The lawyer went on to assure fans that Plies has the utmost respect for Megan Thee Stallion and GloRilla as artists. “The artists are wonderful artists,” he concluded. “This isn’t an attack on any of these artists.” The lawsuit may have been recently filed, but Plies has already gotten pushback from Megan’s producer, LilJuMadeDaBeat.

Lil Ju made the beat for “Wanna Be,” and he claimed that he actually sampled a Soulja Boy song. “‘My Dougie’ came it in 2006, ‘Me & My Goons’ came in in 2008,” the producer tweeted. “Big E the producer of ‘My Dougie’ credited on ‘Wanna Be.’” LilJuMadeDaBeat’s claim regarding the release dates of these respective songs does call into question the validity of Plies’ claim. The rapper has yet to respond to Lil Ju, however.
