Slim Thug Defends Megan Thee Stallion Amid Social Media Backlash
Slim Thug has come to Megan Thee Stallion’s defense following harsh criticism she received on social media after she admitted to lying about her relations with Tory Lanez in a 2022 interview.
The backlash started after Megan’s recent revelation in “Megan Thee Stallion: In Her Words,” where she addresses a 2022 interview with Gayle King. In that interview, Megan denied a “sexual relationship” with Lanez, a claim she now says wasn’t entirely truthful.
Reflecting on the interview, Megan clarified that she and Lanez had been involved "once or twice" while drunk, a detail she stressed is irrelevant to the shooting incident. “Why are we not talking about the godd**n shooting? Everything has been a distraction from the shooting,” she said in the film. “I used to be so confident in myself, and I used to be… It wouldn’t have been a time where anybody would have asked me about fuckin’ somebody, and I would’ve been like, so? Yeah, I did that s**t. I like to f**k, what about it? But the way they have villainized me for being this type of person, it started to make me second-guess myself,” she continued.
The “Mamushi” hitmaker added, “Yes, b**ch, I lied to Gayle King, b**ch. First of all, I ain’t even know that b**ch was even going to ask me about that… Even if I was, I f**ked that n**ga like once, maybe twice on a drunk night. But you kept catchin’ me out my f**kin’ mind.”
After Megan’s disclosures sparked online backlash, Slim Thug took to Instagram to defend her against critics. In his post, the Houston icon said, “All you lames out there, you men hating on a woman, you n**gas is weird and deserve to be slapped. Who the f**k wanna tell who they slept with?” He continued, “Nobody wanna say that. I wouldn’t have said no s**t on national TV anyway. Who the f**k wanna say who they slept with on ABC News. Shut the f**k up! Y’all so stupid! Y’all so slow man. You gonna ask somebody who they slept with on ABC? What are we doing?”
He added, “You ain’t gotta tell people who you slept with, weirdo. Would you go on the news and tell somebody who you slept with? That’s the dumbest s**t for her to even ask her that anyway.”
