Megan Thee Stallion Injured in Shooting After Kylie Jenner Party

Los Angeles, CA – Shockwaves hit the music world this morning as news broke that rapper Megan Thee Stallion was shot in the foot following a private party hosted by Kylie Jenner in the Hollywood Hills late Sunday night.

Initial reports were vague, citing a “disturbance” involving Megan, fellow artist Tory Lanez, and an unidentified third party. LAPD responded to a call around 4:30 a.m. about gunshots fired from an SUV. Lanez, whose real name is Daystar Peterson, was arrested at the scene for possession of a concealed weapon.

At the time of arrest, police did not identify Megan as a shooting victim. But earlier today, she released a statement via Instagram that changed everything.

“I suffered gunshot wounds as a result of a crime that was committed against me and done with the intention to physically harm me,” she wrote. “I was never arrested. The police drove me to the hospital.”

While the post did not name a suspect, it was clear that this was not a mere accident or misunderstanding — Megan had been targeted.

Over the next 24 hours, as public speculation grew online, a disturbing detail emerged: multiple sources alleged that Tory Lanez was the shooter. By midweek, Megan herself would confirm it.

For now, though, the industry is watching closely — and many are staying silent. No official charges for assault or attempted murder have been filed as of today. Lanez has not commented publicly.

Social media, however, has lit up with confusion and blame — and in some cases, mockery. The tone of public discourse has already begun to shift from concern to conspiracy, a disheartening trend for a Black woman artist who, until this week, was riding a meteoric wave of success.

Editorial Note from Exposed Vocals

At the time of publication, no charges have been filed against Tory Lanez in connection to the shooting of Megan Thee Stallion. All individuals involved are presumed innocent until proven otherwise. That said, we believe Megan’s voice matters — and her trauma should not be minimized, mocked, or doubted without evidence to the contrary.
