Megan Thee Stallion Posted a Photo of Her Bullet Wound Because Some Trolls Still Don’t Believe Her
Megan Thee Stallion reached her limit dealing with people on social media that doubt she got shot in the foot, despite it happening and her undergoing a surgery after to have
the bullets removed. The rapper posted a photograph of her bullet wound on her Instagram and wrote a message to all the trolls harassing her. (The photo is below, so trigger warning; it's very graphic.)
"Lol what I have learned abt majority of the people on social media is y’all like to hear bad news before good news, a lie spreads quicker than the truth, and y’all really be believing the shit YALL make up... I got hit at the back of my feet because when I got shot I was WALKING AWAY FACING THE BACK. why would I lie abt getting shot?" she wrote. "Why are y’all so upset that I don’t wanna be in the bed sad ? Why y’all upset that I can walk ? I got my stitches out my feet like 2 weeks ago and I was ready to go celebrate WAP going number1... I usually don’t address internet bullshit but y’all people are so sick! God was really watching over me and I’m healing so well! Sorry I’m not as sad and miserable as a lot of y’all lol but ima keep being Megan Thee Mf STALLION."

Megan spoke before about what happened when she was shot and how she felt betrayed by a friend. (Fellow performer Tory Lanez was arrested and charged with carrying a concealed weapon; TMZ reports he allegedly shot Megan. Megan has never explicitly named her shooter.)
A fan asked Megan during an Instagram Live in early August how she felt after getting shot. "I felt, like, really crazy," she said. "I felt like, why did I get shot? Like, what did I do? It was insane. But shit was crazy, and I feel like some people think that it's funny, and I feel like some people think that it's a joke, and I feel like some people think that they're saying it to get to me. But I'm not ashamed of who I am, and I'm not ashamed of what I've been through, and I'm not scared to say anything about anything."
"It's not fun, bitch," she added. "I don't understand. I just felt very betrayed by a friend. I felt very betrayed by all my friends. I felt very shocked, very scared. But the one thing that y'all need to know about me is, I'm not a person who is able to be down for a long time. ... I don't like to be victimized. I don't like to feel like, 'Oh my God, Megan, something's wrong.' I like to be upbeat. I like to be happy."
In late July, she addressed being shot on her Instagram Live for the first time. "I didn’t put my hands on nobody," she said. "I didn’t deserve to get shot. I didn’t do shit. And thank God that the bullets didn’t touch bones. They didn’t break tendons. I know my mama and my daddy and granny had to be looking out for me, ’cause where the bullets hit at, they missed everything, but the motherf*ckers were in there."
