Having A Darker Complexion Placed A Stereotype On Me Amid The Tory Lanez Saga – Megan Thee Stallion

Popular American rapper, Megan Thee Stallion has gone n*de while debuting on the latest cover of Women’s Health.

She recently shared some of her past struggles with the magazine, and the fans have been reacting.

According to her, before lifting weights at the gym became her saving grace, she felt a lot of pressure from the outside world when she was constantly being bombarded with hate mail from people calling her a liar amid the Tory Lanez incident.

Megan added that having a darker complexion placed a stereotype on her, and she was even subject to racism and colorism online during that whole saga.

WOW.
