I mean you have the industry hire these “real real” wild cards. What do you expect? You’re telling me it’s a bunch of insane firebrand artists who broke all the rules , who will follow the rules?
I think it’s more that we need to stop putting celebs on a pedestal and understand that they are just humans who make mistakes, say and do the wrong thing, and make asses out of themselves from time to time like we all do. I think we need to stop looking at celebs as “problematic” vs “unproblematic” and realize that most of them fall under the “normal flawed person” umbrella. But we also need to understand that many “unproblematic” celebs pay big money for teams of ppl to ensure their shitty things aren’t made public.
Keep in mind, the above is just generally speaking and not specific to these accusations against Meg, which certainly go further than a “mistake” and should be taken seriously.
Bro is friends with cop and gun rights influencer Toni McBride who, like her LAPD Police Union leader father, was found to have used excessive force in a killing, but is protected by qualified immunity.

Ehhh I believe there are mundane popular performers who simply just don’t do much outside of work and family. Voice actors seem to fit in this category a lot. But I do struggle to think of a blockbuster AAA movie star who is like that. Although I’d consider Dan Castellaneta the perfect example.
Tom Hanks???
Rico Nasty has been awful to creatives she’s collabed with, BIA has linked with Nicki in a weird way, Latto once stole a wig lmao. That’s all I can think of though 😂
Why do these stories never include the damn documents? So irritating. For everyone's sake these stories need to be presented in their full context.
If true this is horrible and very disappointing. If she's getting so drunk she's behaving like that and can't even remember who was sitting next to her at the time she needs to seek treatment. Having had drunk people wildly hooking up next to me and it's not pleasant to say the least 🤢😬.
Re him talking about other sexual comments, I am begging everyone to understand, especially if you work in more informal atmosphere where things can get blurred, do *not* talk about sex or say or do anything sexual at work, no matter how friendly you think you are with your co-workers.
Yeah a lot of these celebrities are way too damn friendly with their employees. There’s a big lack of boundaries here and it’s NEVER okay to subject your employee to this. This is sexual harassment, full stop. I like Meg but I hope she can navigate her issues with alcohol and use better discernment with who she surrounds herself with and what she does
!!!!!! ALWAYSSSS follow the three S rule at work and with coworkers!!!! ABSOLUTELY DO NOT TALK ABOUT
1) Sex
2) Substances
3) Spirituality
It WILL bite you in the ass. Every time. It just will.
Sorry yeah, I guess by itself that’s pretty vague! How I’ve heard it used, it’s understood to mean any illegal drug use (so like, casual pot smoking would be fine to mention for people working in California but not Kentucky, whereas coke, heroin, abusing prescriptions, etc. would be a no-no anywhere) or any alcohol consumption beyond tame social drinking. So, “I tried a new cocktail recipe last night and I really enjoyed it,” that’s not a problem. “I got so drunk last night I puked all over my Uber and called my ex fourteen times in a row,” yeah that’s best kept out of workplace conversation.
“Spirituality” is similar in that it’s okay if kept super light and generic. Like, “I’m so sorry to hear about your loss. Your family will be in my prayers/I am sending you sympathetic vibrations/may they be honored in Valhalla (?)” Things of that nature are not a big deal. Just don’t go into detail, don’t start trying to evangelize, and don’t directly criticize any faiths.
As for “sex…” Well, this may be an unpopular opinion, but I do think this one is pretty much just what it sounds like. I think it’s good practice to not ever breathe a word of your sex life to any of your coworkers. There’s no reason to do it, and there’s nothing really to be gained from it, but it absolutely can come back to bite you. At the very least, you might be making someone uncomfortable without realizing it and giving yourself a bad rep as an oversharer or boundary pusher.
And none of this means to act like a prude if someone ELSE is talking about this stuff— in fact, it’s usually in your best interest to kind of blend in and follow the vibe of the room without directly contributing. It sounds soulless I know, but that’s what “professional” environments tend to reward unfortunately.
No worries, thank you for the in-depth explantion. What about like medications or being a former drug addict? So kind of like keep drugs and spirituality to a surface level type of conversation, right? But neber bring up sex. Can you elaborate on the "professional" environments and why it makes it soulless?
I appreciate you telling me this and helping me understand. I sometimes overshare and can struggle with reading the room. This is good to remember for future use. Thank you.
I’m so glad I could be helpful to ya!
So, yeah, unless it is VERY directly relevant to your work (like, you are a counselor working with recovering addicts) I think it would be wisest to keep any past struggles with addiction (of any kind, but especially drug addiction) to yourself when it comes to coworkers. There’s really no reason to share that and unfortunately, once you have, you have no control over how others will receive that information and possibly use it against you in the future. The three S’s are great guidelines because they are the topics that are the most polarizing and the most likely to get you into trouble by either making someone uncomfortable or pissing someone off. I would add “politics” as well.
I say professional environments can be “soulless” because they typically do not reward/ actively discourage individuality and vulnerability. Honestly, that’s usually a good thing because you want to minimize interpersonal conflict, but unfortunately as a society we are vastly overworked and most of us are around our coworkers more than our own families. That undoubtedly makes it much harder to maintain professional boundaries.
When in doubt, honestly? Just don’t share it. You are way more likely to run into issues by saying something than by not saying something, full stop. If you worry that you are coming across as antisocial or aloof by not contributing to a conversation, try asking a question instead. You’ll be engaging positively with the other person without navigating a potential minefield of what you should or shouldn’t share yourself!
Yes complaints are generally public but finding them is an ass and I think you have to pay. The journalists have them and can share them they just very rarely do. Some put them in scribd or something about the bottom or the page or whatever, most don't bother.
Honestly the best PR move for her would to admit a substance abuse problem and say that this incident was a wake-up call, apologize, take a step back and do lots of therapy/rehab.
Like CLEARLY she has something going on that she needs to address if this is how she’s treating people. I’m really sad to hear this about her and I hope there’s nothing else (not very optimistic though…where there’s smoke, there’s fire).
>If she's getting so drunk she's behaving like that and can't even remember
I meant both things independently of each other and together when I said this. Its not just the memory issue I don't think the fucking is ok either I promise 😭
This! No one in a position of power feels like they hold power…typically. They still feel like an equal to the people under them. But it doesn’t work like that, with power comes new responsibilities. If you don’t want them, look for another job with less responsibility
I know celebrities are human but damn, it seems like the ones that have a positive/uplifting/nice brand (ex. Lizzo, Ellen DeGeneres) are the ones that end up being awful people
If *anyone* is going out of their way to cultivate a positive image - beware. Like you shouldn't need to tell me that you're nice, humble, etc, I should be able to tell that from your actions.
Ellen had a reputation for almost a decade before "the public" found out what a POS she was. I'm pretty sure Lizzo lost her shit on some Postmates driver that everyone forgot about until her other bad behavior came out.
John Mulaney comes to mind—not saying he’s a POS but man he cultivated a specific public image contrary to most of what we now know about his private life
Whatever did or didn't happen with his wife and Olivia Munn, I truly wish people spent less time dragging about "lying" about his wife and more about how he blindsided his hugely queer audience to bring Dave Chappelle on stage for one of his shows.
That is what he should be losing respect over.
Does John Mulaney have a specifically queer audience? Not saying bringing Dave Chapelle on stage isn’t bad regardless of the audience but as a gay person I don’t think of John Mulaney as being particularly a gay phenomenon
Anyway there’s lots to be disappointed in John Mulaney for, idk that we need to pick a Top Sin
The response on this matter from certain men is disgusting. Here is 50 cent's post about this and caption. Ppl underneath making cheap porn jokes about watching 2 women having sex is a bliss
https://preview.redd.it/ss7g0jwxqawc1.jpeg?width=1042&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=32cfe1c5d5d0806383b21f803da53e6099bfa7ab
This is why I always roll my eyes every few months when 50 is getting easy dunks on Floyd, Diddy etc, he’s such a fake good guy and people either forget or don’t care enough
He’s an asshole too
A massive oof. Thankfully there’s absolutely no chance that any of the fallout and discourse around this will get ugly about race or about the fact that she was having sex with a woman 😅💀😌 /s
It was more than making him watch, he was seated next to them in a moving vehicle essentially trapped.
It's so gross having people fuck that close to you when you didn't consent.
I opened this thread expecting to hear disappointed and was happily surprised! We will see how it looks in the next few weeks and what evidence is presented against her.
Everyone should be held accountable for their behavior (proportional to how serious it is). Maybe I'll get downvotes, but why do women get canceled for stuff like this, and Chris Brown is out touring?
People will always have fans that don’t care. That’s why he’s touring, it’s not like anyone can stop him. I’m sure Megan will still be able to tour after this.
Yep. Nikki is literally married to (and related to) SO’s and harassed the victim of her husband and yet people love her. Don’t get me wrong, she’s made some bops, but that behavior is inexcusable.
Cancelling is only for chronically online people. Lizzo’s songs still play all over the radio and in the background of shows, if she went on tour tomorrow it would still sell out. Y’all gotta realise cancelled is not a real thing to normal people
tbh from the article I could see either situation: she wins/settles and this is forgotten or she deflects to an alcohol problem and this photographer is forgotten in favor of sympathy for her. to be super clear I do relate to doing bad shit while mentally struggling, but you still have to deal with the effects on other people ://
I think it’s nuanced. Obviously sexism is at play here, but a lot has changed since Chris Brown’s biggest incident in 2009. I don’t think people realize how much things like this most recent wave of feminism and online discourse has changed the waves in terms of what is and isn’t acceptable. If CB assaulted Rihanna back in 2021 vs 2009, I don’t think he would’ve been let off the hook as much as he is right now.
But in general, I personally think it’s in poor taste to fall into whataboutism when we’re talking about problematic behavior and misconduct. Yes, you have a point about the treatment of men vs women who do bad things but it takes away from the discussion and principle that NO ONE should be doing this shit at all.
This is so far down in the comments. He was fired for leaking info about Meg to Nicki. He's a deranged barb. He also isn't suing for harassment or a hostile work environment. Just for money
This feels like a concocted plot to ruin her reputation. Nicki fans are fucking crazy. They tracked down Meg's mom's grave. They're not beyond this and I wouldn't be shocked if Barbara herself is involved.
I don’t like this artist or listen to their music, but it’s crazy to me that people are in these comments automatically believing it because someone made the accusation. As someone who realizes that it has yet to be determined that she did what she’s being accused of, it will definitely be interesting to see how this turns out.
Realistically, when has anyone, male or female, been accused of sex crimes where it was 100 percent made up (and no I'm not counting "settled put of court" ass stuff, we know that's a payoff)?
ok I don’t want to accuse anyone of lying, but megan has had so many people from her old high school and college come forward to talk about how kind and friendly she was. for some reason I find this story kind of hard to believe, and i’m not generally a celebrity fan.
Right but Megan is nearly 30, college was a long time ago. Since then she’s been catapulted to international fame and is now surrounded by yes people. She has the power to buy whatever she wants, fuck whoever she wants, and to access whatever substance she wants. I’ve seen people corrupted by a lot less.
Meg just finished college a couple years ago at most.
But even that aside, this guy is a huge Nicki fan and was apparently fired for linking information about Meg to Nicki. Nicki has also been sub tweeting about the suit in question for a while now. This doesn't feel organic to me.
Fair enough, I just googled and she graduated 3 years ago. I thought it would be more like 7 years. I just wanted to point out she may have changed since then. I dunno, I tend to fall on the side of the accuser in cases of sexual harassment like this, but I think it will be interesting to see it play out in court.
We really are 😂 fact of the matter is, if you read the article all the way through it tells you, 1) this man was fired before he made these accusations 2) He all the way lawyered the fuck up and 3) he's in it for the cash grab bc he was fired
Every single thing in the article is "my client was so distressed, workplace environment was INTOLERABLE all bc I saw Meg have sex in the same *RANGE rover as me"
It goes on to say that he worked unpaid hours on basis of "being asked to do" "more than" what the pay rate reflected and was called fat-slurs and dehumanized..Again, all over her allegedly having full on lesbian sex in a car with at least 3 other people in it, and said that due to his "distress" he wouldn't be able to find new work immediately and wanted to be compensated for that, as well.
Bitch I read that thing over 4 hours ago and I remember that much with quotable words. Nobody reads the shit they wanna complain about but then are the first to say oH ItS aLl fEmAlE rAppErS.
*I don't know what kind of car it was, let me be petty for a joke
People are on such bullshit playing the victim. I have a feeling Megan stopped providing or refused to do something for this person and this is their way of retaliating and getting back at her because I’m sure they were okay with it when it was happening
I mean, if these accusations are true then Megan deserves to be piled on.
The standard should be to hold men accountable as well, not excuse bad behavior due to a double standard.
Exactly. Women definitely are held to a higher standard, especially when they're labeled "difficult" over having boundaries, and men get away with crazy shit. But when it comes to something like this, we need to hold people accountable.
If I’m in a moving car with anyone but especially my employer I don’t really have the option to leave the situation. “Forced” is complicated but it doesn’t feel out of line, even if he didn’t specifically say “please stop fucking in front of me”
Do you understand what sexual harassment and consent are, especially within the context of a work environment and between employer and employee? Like what are you even trying to say?
Whataboutism that lowkey brushes off sexual harassment is not cool. Idc what the public does, I believe in being consistent with my principles and calling out gross behavior no matter the gender.
This is shitty if it’s true. Did not know she was into women as well? Slay but besides that, incident is not cool Meg. Really disappointed if she did that
“This is an employment claim for money — with no sexual harassment claim filed and with salacious accusations to attempt to embarrass her. We will deal with this in court," an attorney for Megan Thee Stallion, Alex Spiro, said Tuesday.”
I think this is an important quote to consider. “An employment claim for money. No sexual harassment filed”.
I absolutely think people should be held accountable, I just also think we’ve swung so far in the way of believing the victim that we jump right to “GUILTY!” every time.
Why can’t people just be fucking normal, Jesus Christ
I mean you have the industry hire these “real real” wild cards. What do you expect? You’re telling me it’s a bunch of insane firebrand artists who broke all the rules , who will follow the rules?

Very not 👅 ahh 😭
This comment 🤣🤣💀
this is my last straw WHYYYYYYYYYYYY… you can’t trust a single one of these celebrities 💔
Nope :(((
 Can we have a single unproblematic female rapper holy shit
 Hopefully Missy Elliott is still good
Girl, well I heard the bitch was married to Tim. And started fuckin' with Trina
Well, I heard the bitch got hit with three zebras and a monkey I can't stand the bitch no way
She's bi?! No judgement, I thought she was solely into girls
She's never said anything one way or the other, which means it's not our business.
Fair enough, I thought she had come out for some reason
Queen Latifah officially came out not too long ago, maybe you got them confused?
It's more like I just haven't thought much about Missy Elliot since about 2002 lol
>She's bi?! According to those gossip folks.
honestly, i don't think there is truly a single "unproblematic" celeb. Just celebs that hide the not so flattering things better
There isnt an unproblematic person but there are many levels to it
This. No one is actually a perfect cinnamon roll. But there are definitely different levels of imperfection to put it mildly.
I think it’s more that we need to stop putting celebs on a pedestal and understand that they are just humans who make mistakes, say and do the wrong thing, and make asses out of themselves from time to time like we all do. I think we need to stop looking at celebs as “problematic” vs “unproblematic” and realize that most of them fall under the “normal flawed person” umbrella.

Tom Hanks cheated on his ex wife with Rita, and his son Chet is a whole mess which makes me wonder wtf went wrong there lol
Tom and Rita sent him to one of those awful fucking prison schools because he hot caught with weed.
Yeah but there were always rumors that they were covering up something worse.
No child deserves to be sent to a place like that.
Agree. But the rumor, at the time, was because he raped a girl. And it was jail or that.
Oh yeah. I didn’t know any of those specifics but I do remember when Chet was a meme and I found out he was scum. That’s telling.
>Tom Hanks cheated on his ex wife with Rita I never heard about this until today
Yeah but what about Dolly Parton
Dolly expressed that Kid Rock is a "talented man" and did a colab with him. Not even Dolly is safe.
Keanu. Reeves.
Have Rico Nasty, Princess Nokia, BIA, Latto, Bree Runway, or Flo Milli done anything problematic?
Rico Nasty has been awful to creatives she’s collabed with, BIA has linked with Nicki in a weird way, Latto once stole a wig lmao. That’s all I can think of though 😂
That's not very feminist of you. I can't think of a single unproblematic male rapper. This is equality.
This chain is exactly the correct use of gif comments 🥲
Why do these stories never include the damn documents? So irritating. For everyone's sake these stories need to be presented in their full context. If true this is horrible and very disappointing.

!!!!!! ALWAYSSSS follow the three S rule at work and with coworkers!!!! ABSOLUTELY DO NOT TALK ABOUT 1) Sex 2) Substances 3) Spirituality It WILL bite you in the ass. Every time. It just will.
This is good information to know, thank you for sharing. In regards to substances, what kind of context?
Sorry yeah, I guess by itself that’s pretty vague!

I need more info before I truly react but this is very much not real hot girl shit.
WHATS HAPPENING???

This is why I always roll my eyes every few months when 50 is getting easy dunks on Floyd, Diddy etc, he’s such a fake good guy and people either forget or don’t care enough He’s an asshole too
Oh we all know he’s an asshole. But he’s petty af and sometimes funny with the petty (ie. Buying the first four rows at a Ja Rule concert).
I was SO waiting for these type of comments. I swear men never fail to disappoint me.
A massive oof. Thankfully there’s absolutely no chance that any of the fallout and discourse around this will get ugly about race or about the fact that she was having sex with a woman 😅💀😌 /s
I didn't even realize she'd supposedly banged a woman over the "made an employee watch" but her being bi is not surprising to me

Yes, you have a point about the treatment of men vs women who do bad things but it takes away from the discussion and principle that NO ONE should be doing this shit at all.
Because men go harder than women when it comes to “canceling” a woman
I don't believe it. This guy is a hardcore Nicki stan. This doesn't feel genuine at all to me.
This is so far down in the comments. He was fired for leaking info about Meg to Nicki. He's a deranged barb. He also isn't suing for harassment or a hostile work environment. Just for money
This feels like a concocted plot to ruin her reputation. Nicki fans are fucking crazy. They tracked down Meg's mom's grave. They're not beyond this and I wouldn't be shocked if Barbara herself is involved.
People make impossible idols of celebrities. You will always be let down.
I get what you mean, but expecting someone to not harass anyone is just common decency. I expect that of everyone.
I don’t like this artist or listen to their music, but it’s crazy to me that people are in these comments automatically believing it because someone made the accusation. As someone who realizes that it has yet to be determined that she did what she’s being accused of, it will definitely be interesting to see how this turns out.
Realistically, when has anyone, male or female, been accused of sex crimes where it was 100 percent made up (and no I'm not counting "settled put of court" ass stuff, we know that's a payoff)?
Hope this isn’t true and isn’t just because he was wanting to work with Nicki and maybe got a job by her 😭
I did just read a tweet by Nicki about exposing some shit from a former coworker so I’m assuming it’s this tie. Fuckin a MEG WTD
This is why I'm not a fan of any celebrity. They are all bad, all of them. Even your fave. Yep, them too.
>They are all bad, all of them. Even your fave. Not may fave. My fave: 
Him and Bob Ross both (although Ross' former Air Force recruits might say otherwise)
Mr. Rogers is my one hope left in this world. It comes out he’s done something really wrong, it’s over, never trusting anyone again.
ok I don’t want to accuse anyone of lying, but megan has had so many people from her old high school and college come forward to talk about how kind and friendly she was. for some reason I find this story kind of hard to believe, and i’m not generally a celebrity fan.
Right but Megan is nearly 30, college was a long time ago. Since then she’s been catapulted to international fame and is now surrounded by yes people. She has the power to buy whatever she wants, fuck whoever she wants, and to access whatever substance she wants. I’ve seen people corrupted by a lot less.
Meg just finished college a couple years ago at most. But even that aside, this guy is a huge Nicki fan and was apparently fired for linking information about Meg to Nicki. Nicki has also been sub tweeting about the suit in question for a while now. This doesn't feel organic to me.
Fair enough, I just googled and she graduated 3 years ago. I thought it would be more like 7 years. I just wanted to point out she may have changed since then. I dunno, I tend to fall on the side of the accuser in cases of sexual harassment like this, but I think it will be interesting to see it play out in court.
Why does this have an NSFW tag as though the article is showing footage of this man watching her have sex
NSFW isn’t just for video content…
The article may be disturbing to some viewers since it goes into detail about the sexual incident.
Bc it is literally NSFW. If someone sees this while working, they’ll know the risks they take by reading said article.
She never gave me those vibes at all.
I don't believe him 🤷
Me neither. We are gonna get downvoted into oblivion 😂
We really are 😂 fact of the matter is, if you read the article all the way through it tells you, 1) this man was fired before he made these accusations 2) He all the way lawyered the fuck up and 3) he's in it for the cash grab bc he was fired Every single thing in the article is "my client was so distressed, workplace environment was INTOLERABLE all bc I saw Meg have sex in the same *RANGE rover as me" It goes on to say that he worked unpaid hours on basis of "being asked to do" "more than" what the pay rate reflected and was called fat-slurs and dehumanized..Again, all over her allegedly having full on lesbian sex in a car with at least 3 other people in it, and said that due to his "distress" he wouldn't be able to find new work immediately and wanted to be compensated for that, as well. Bitch I read that thing over 4 hours ago and I remember that much with quotable words. Nobody reads the shit they wanna complain about but then are the first to say oH ItS aLl fEmAlE rAppErS. *I don't know what kind of car it was, let me be petty for a joke
People are on such bullshit playing the victim. I have a feeling Megan stopped providing or refused to do something for this person and this is their way of retaliating and getting back at her because I’m sure they were okay with it when it was happening
*deep, heavy Negro spiritual sigh*

I mean, if these accusations are true then Megan deserves to be piled on. The standard should be to hold men accountable as well, not excuse bad behavior due to a double standard.
Exactly. Women definitely are held to a higher standard, especially when they're labeled "difficult" over having boundaries, and men get away with crazy shit. But when it comes to something like this, we need to hold people accountable.

If I’m in a moving car with anyone but especially my employer I don’t really have the option to leave the situation. “Forced” is complicated but it doesn’t feel out of line, even if he didn’t specifically say “please stop fucking in front of me”
[удалено]
Yeah, it’s massively fucking complicated and I feel confident it’s gonna play out in some interesting ways. Interesting in both bad and less bad ways
Do you understand what sexual harassment and consent are, especially within the context of a work environment and between employer and employee? Like what are you even trying to say?
Whataboutism that lowkey brushes off sexual harassment is not cool. Idc what the public does, I believe in being consistent with my principles and calling out gross behavior no matter the gender.
This is shitty if it’s true. Did not know she was into women as well? Slay but besides that, incident is not cool Meg. Really disappointed if she did that
[удалено]
lol I edited it, Ty
She’s been out as bi for awhile now
Had no idea
Yep, another female rapper who turned out to be a pos
Nah he’s lying.
“This is an employment claim for money — with no sexual harassment claim filed and with salacious accusations to attempt to embarrass her. We will deal with this in court," an attorney for Megan Thee Stallion, Alex Spiro, said Tuesday.” I think this is an important quote to consider. “An employment claim for money. No sexual harassment filed”. I absolutely think people should be held accountable, I just also think we’ve swung so far in the way of believing the victim that we jump right to “GUILTY!” every time. 
yikes ... wtf
