    Oct 5, 2020
    AceShowbiz – Megan Thee Stallion took the opportunity to share an important political message during her “Saturday Night Live” (SNL) appearance this weekend (03Oct20).
    While performing her song “Savage”, the 25-year-old rapper had a message written across the screen behind her, slamming Kentucky Attorney General Daniel Cameron and his handling of the investigation into Breonna Taylor’s death.

    “Daniel Cameron is no different than the sellout Negroes that sold our people into slavery,” the message directed at the black Republican state leader read.

    Megan also took time to advocate for the protection of black women and men in America, insisting, “We need to protect our black women and love our black women.”
    “(Be)cause at the end of the day, we need our black women. We need to protect our black men and stand up for our black men. ‘Cause at the end of the day we’re tired of seeing hashtags of our black men.”
    Taylor, 26, was shot and killed by police officers during a botched raid on her apartment in Louisville, Kentucky in March (20), and her killing, as well as that of George Floyd in May (20), prompted a huge surge in Black Lives Matter protests across the U.S. and the world.
    But last month (Sep20), Cameron claimed two of the three officers were justified in their actions while charging another with “wanton endangerment” following the release of a Grand Jury report into the tragedy.
    Rihanna, Alicia Keys, and Bryson Tiller are among the stars who have also slammed Cameron’s decision not to proceed with further charges.

    The ‘Savage’ hitmaker puts her own sexy spin to each of the costumes as she cosplays the likes of Alice, the Queen of Hearts and the Chesire Cats in the music video.
    Oct 2, 2020
    AceShowbiz – Megan Thee Stallion has returned with a new song. Following days of teasing fans, the rap star finally released a song titled “Don’t Stop” featuring Young Thug along with its music video accompaniment on Thursday midnight, October 1.
    In the visuals, which was helmed by “WAP” music video director Collin Tille, Megan takes the viewers into her own version of “Alice in the Wonderland”. She cosplays several characters from the classic story, including Alice, the Queen of Hearts as well as the Cheshire Cat, but she puts her own sexy spin in each of the costumes.
    At one point during the three-minute music video, Megan can be seen twerking on the floor in a light blue bodysuit that resembles Alice’s clothes. What makes this scene interesting is the fact that the CGI cat is slapping the “Savage” hitmaker’s booty as she continues to twerk and rap, “Don’t stop, pop that cat/ Mm, mm, just like that/ Mm, mm, shake that s**t/ Mm, mm, work it, b***h.”

    The music video arrives ahead of her debut on “Saturday Night Live”. She has been taped as the musical guest on the show’s season premier with Chris Rock serving as the host. In the promotional video, Megan and Chris both sported facial masks with the former asking the actor, “Chris, can you read my lips?” In response, he said, “Yes I can, but we can’t say that on TV,” prompting the female emcee to laugh.

    In another scene, Chris once again introduced Megan by saying, “Show’s gonna be great, we’re not even worried, right, Megan?” The 25-year-old made her appearance again, but this time around, she sported a medical suit to make sure she’s safe amid the coronavirus pandemic.
    “Saturday Night Live” is set to return on October 3.

  • Tory Lanez Accused of Capitalizing on Meghan Thee Stallion Shooting to Promote New Album

    The Canadian rapper is facing backlash for promoting his new studio album instead of explaining himself in the shooting drama that left the ‘Hot Girl Summer’ star injured.
    Sep 26, 2020
    AceShowbiz – Tory Lanez was accused of “capitalising” on his shooting of Megan Thee Stallion after using the incident to promote his new album.

    An investigation into the incident, which Megan publicly blamed Lanez for in an Instagram Live session, is ongoing, but the rapper hadn’t spoken publicly about the shooting until he tweeted on Thursday (24Sep20), writing, “To my fans … I’m sorry for my silence …. but respectfully .. I got time today …… 9 PM PST.”

    While fans speculated that Tory would finally tell his side of the story, midnight came and saw the 28-year-old share a picture of his new album cover, writing alongside it, “There is a time to stay silent . And a time to speak ….. I said all I could say on this … ALL PLATFORMS … in 5 MINUTES …..”
    Despite suggesting he’d address the situation through his music, the lack of a public apology to Megan didn’t go down too well with social media users, with one writing on Instagram, “He capitalising on the situation by releasing a song … makes me sick.”
    “You’re finished bro. Capitalising for streams you gotta be apologetic this ain’t it,” another commented, while a third wrote, “I didnt set my alarm clock to listen to no song tory.”
    While another tweeted, “Tory going on live the day after the Breonna Taylor verdict to defend shooting a black woman is PEAK tone def.”

    Delivering renditions of her hit singles after a July clash with Tory Lanez, the ‘WAP’ hitmaker pays tribute to the victims of racial injustice and police brutality.
    Aug 31, 2020
    AceShowbiz – Rap sensation Megan Thee Stallion used her first virtual concert to make a statement about racial injustice and police brutality as she returned to the stage after surviving a summer shooting.
    The hip-hop hitmaker had to undergo surgery on her feet after a July clash with fellow MC Tory Lanez, but she proved she is well on her way to a full recovery on Saturday (August 29) as she performed for fans online in a ticketed show for Live Nation.
    Megan was back in high heels and lingerie as she twerked onstage, and delivered renditions of singles like “Savage”, “Hot Girl Summer”, “WAP”, and “Girls in the Hood”.
    However, she also took the opportunity to voice her support for the ongoing Black Lives Matter movement, using a black backdrop to project the names of people killed in racially-motivated incidents in the U.S. in recent years, including George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery, Breonna Taylor, Tamir Rice, Freddie Gray, and Elijah McClain.
    “THIS S**T IS EXHAUSTING,” it read, before listing the victims’ names with brief descriptions of each tragedy.

    She also paid tribute to Jacob Blake, who has been left paralysed from the waist down after he was shot seven times in the back at close range by an officer in Kenosha, Wisconsin – in front of his partner and their three children – during an attempted arrest on 23 August.
    The timely segment concluded with the question, “WHY IS IT SO HARD BEING BLACK IN AMERICA?”.

    After the show, Megan took to Instagram to share photos of her stage attire, captioning the post, “1st day back… did you catch thee show (sic)”.

  • Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion's 'WAP' Almost Thrown Out by 'Scared' Label Bosses

    The controversial ‘WAP’ collaboration between Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion almost didn’t happen because label bosses were too scared to release the provocative single.
    Aug 21, 2020
    AceShowbiz – Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion’s chart-topping collaboration “WAP” was almost pulled by bosses at the rapper’s record label.
    The provocative tune proved a hit with fans, topping the U.S. Billboard Hot 100, and its accompanying video, featuring stars including Normani and Kylie Jenner in a lavish mansion featuring butt sculptures, breast fountains, tigers and leopards, quickly went viral on social media.
    But the “Bodak Yellow” star told Ash London Live that bosses at her record label, Atlantic Records, were unsure of the track when she first presented it to them.
    “When they heard the song, they were like, ‘We really like it, but that song is so explicit’,” Cardi shared of the raunchy track, which has the full title Wet A*s P**sy.”
    “And I guess they were asking around because even with YouTube we couldn’t use the explicit version. We had to use ‘wet and Gucci’ to keep it PG-13.”
    She continued, “My label was really scared about the record. They were like, ‘Can you please get another record and you could put Megan on it?’ And I was like, ‘No.’ ”
    Cardi also admitted she too began to get nervous about the track, confessing, “I kept asking people, ‘Am I saying p**sy too much?’ ”
