MIAMI — An emotional Megan Thee Stallion told a court Thursday she feels "defeated" and struggles with mental health issues because of sexually explicit deepfake video a blogger is alleged to have encouraged followers to watch.
The Grammy-winning artist took the witness stand in her lawsuit against blogger Milagro Gramz, who is accused of being a “mouthpiece,” a “puppet” and a “paid surrogate” for rapper Tory Lanez during and after his high-profile criminal trial.
Gramz is accused of encouraging her thousands of followers on X and Instagram to view an unauthorized, sexually explicit deepfake video of Megan that had been circulating on social media.
“I feel like ... to this day, I feel a little, like, defeated," Megan testified, often sobbing as she talked about the artificial intelligence porn bearing her image. "Because no matter what, no matter if the video was fake or not ... [Gramz] wanted it to be real."
Lanez, whose real name is Daystar Peterson, was convicted of shooting Megan in the foot after the pair left a Los Angeles party in 2020. He has been sentenced to 10 years.
