Ahead of the release of Megan Thee Stallion’s debut album, Good News, GQ dubbed her rapper of the year.
The Houston native touched on the highly-anticipated musical effort, but of course, she couldn’t have a sit-down without talking about the Tory Lanez shooting incident.
“Like, I never put my hands on nobody,” she told writer Allison P. Davis. “I barely even said anything to the man who shot me when I was walking away. We were literally like five minutes away from the house.”
Meg alleges that the Toronto rapper offered her and her former best friend, Kelsey Nicole, hush money. “[At this point] I’m really scared,” she continued, “because this like right in the middle of all the protesting. Police are just killing everybody for no reason, and I’m thinking, ‘I can’t believe you even think I want to take some money. Like, you just shot me.’”
Although she was the butt of countless cruel jokes, the Hot Girl coach says she wanted to project strength instead of victimizing herself.
“Like damn, I have to be tough through all this? All the time? It was like, who really checks on us or who protected us? You just go your whole life with that mentality,” she told GQ. “And then when something actually happens to you, when you properly should have protected yourself, your first instinct was not to protect yourself, it was protecting other people. … So it was like, ‘What do I do?’ ‘What do I say?’ Like, ‘Is anybody going to believe what I’m saying?’”
Elsewhere in the conversation, Megan Thee Stallion touched on her personal relationship with Hip Hop’s #1 power couple, Beyonce and JAY-Z. “She so calm,” Meg said of her “Savage (Remix)” collaborator. She said Hov would call her and tell her “you know, you supposed to be turning up right now. You really need to be somewhere driving a boat. Live your life.”
The countdown for Good News has already started and Meg says that she was her biggest inspiration while working on this album. Are you excited to hear it?

Tiffany Haddish’s African Grocery Store Visit Sparks Debate, Is She a Trailblazer or Out of Touch?
Tiffany Haddish is at the center of controversy after a video of her visit to a grocery store in Zimbabwe went viral. In the clip, Haddish marvels at the store’s size and the availability of items like sugar cane and organic strawberries, which she seemed to find surprising.
The reaction from viewers has been mixed. Some applauded her for challenging stereotypes about Africa, while others mocked her for acting as if the continent lacked modern amenities. One user on X quipped, “Tiffany Haddish, the first woman to discover a grocery store in Africa,” while another expressed confusion over her reaction, questioning why she seemed surprised by the store’s offerings.
In response to the backlash, Haddish took to X to clarify her intentions. She emphasized that her goal was to “demystify” Africa and encourage more Black Americans to visit.
This incident follows another controversial trip earlier this year, when Haddish visited Israel amid ongoing conflicts, a move that drew criticism for its insensitivity. Despite the recent backlash, Haddish remains active, with her latest project being the memoir I Curse You With Joy, which has garnered positive reviews for its candidness.
In an era where public figures must tread carefully, it seems Haddish’s words continue to spark debate, whether she’s on a global adventure or sharing her personal experiences.
