Controversially, Jess even insinuated that Tory Lanez didn’t intentionally shoot Megan Thee Stallion. In the video, she said:
“Tory, if he did this on purpose – which we are justifying that he did not – it would’ve looked like this: ‘B*tch, let me get that motherf*ckin’ foot. Let me get that toe! [gunshot sound effect]”
In her initial statement on the incident, Megan Thee Stallion made it clear that the shooter, who is allegedly rapper Tory Lanez, intended to shoot her to cause bodily harm:
“On Sunday morning, I suffered gunshot wounds, as a result of a crime that was committed against me and done with the intention to physically harm me. I was never arrested, the police officers drove me to the hospital where I underwent surgery to remove the bullets. I’m incredibly grateful to be alive…”
Earlier this week, she spoke on Instagram Live for the first time – growing emotional while recounting the incident.
