In a dramatic courtroom showdown that has captivated the music world, rapper Megan Thee Stallion delivered compelling testimony about the emotional impact of public attacks from fellow artists Nicki Minaj and Drake. The defamation trial against blogger Milagro Cooper took an intense turn as Megan addressed what she described as a coordinated online harassment campaign.
Courtroom Confrontation Over Musical Disses
During cross-examination, Cooper's attorney Jeremy McLymont directly questioned Megan about her reaction to Nicki Minaj's diss track "Big Foot" released earlier this year. Megan didn't hold back her feelings, stating she found the track too "silly" to even finish listening to it. "It was just so silly in the beginning. I couldn't get through it," the rapper testified, adding "I just feel like it wasn't something I wanted to keep listening to."
When pressed about whether she could simply ignore content she disliked, Megan responded with a telling distinction: "As it pertains to Nicki Minaj, yes." This statement highlighted the severe strain in their relationship since their public falling out in 2024. The courtroom exchange revealed how Minaj's track was actually a response to Megan's single "Hiss," which contained references to Megan's Law that many interpreted as targeting Minaj's husband, Kenneth Petty.
Drake's Controversial Lyrics Under Scrutiny
The testimony also brought renewed attention to Drake's controversial line from "Circo Loco" where he rapped: "This bi**h lie 'bout getting shots but she still a stallion." Megan provided her interpretation of the lyric in court, suggesting Drake was being intentionally indirect. "If he is talking about me, he's using it in a very indirect way," she stated. "If he was talking about me he could've been more direct, because I don't have butt shots."
Megan recalled her immediate reaction when the track originally dropped, reminding the court of her blunt social media response: "Stop using my shooting for clout bih a*s nias. Since when TF is it cool to joke abt women getting shot. You nias especially rap nigas are lame!"
The Core Legal Battle
At the heart of the trial lies Megan's accusation that blogger Milagro Cooper collaborated with Tory Lanez to launch a systematic online harassment campaign against her. This alleged campaign included spreading conspiracy theories and circulating an AI-generated explicit video, actions that Megan testified caused significant emotional and reputational damage.
The rapper's testimony painted a picture of a turbulent period in her career marked by online hostility, pointed lyrics from fellow artists, and her determined efforts to reclaim control of her own narrative. As the sixth court appearance in this intensifying legal battle, the proceedings have exposed the complex relationships and tensions within the hip-hop community.
Megan's straightforward responses and emotional recollections provided the court with a raw look at how public feuds and musical disses can have real-world consequences, extending beyond social media drama into legal proceedings that could set important precedents for how online harassment cases are handled in the future.
