Gayle King is unbothered after she caught wind of Megan Thee Stallion calling her a โb-tchโ in the rapperโs new Prime documentary โMegan Thee Stallion: In Her Words.โ
In a new Instagram video, the โCBS Morningsโ host took the high road with her response saying, โHey, Iโm just sitting here minding my own business. People are reaching out to me, saying, โHey Gayle, Megan Thee Stallion just called you a b-tch.’โ
ย โI know youโre expecting me or โฆ maybe youโre thinking I have something negative to say. I do not. I have nothing but great, great love and respect for Megan Thee Stallion. Cheering her on always,โ King added before diving into what she felt were more important topics like the 2024 election next week.
Fans responded to Kingโs message by defending the โSavageโ rapper. Two said, โShe didnโt mean it like that,โ and โShe said b-tch as a term of endearment, but she noticeably didnโt acknowledge that Meg lied to her.โ
A third fan scolded the 29-year-old for calling King out of her name, โSorry, no matter what context she said, respect your eldersโฆ that was inappropriate and disrespectful.โ
In the documentary, which was released on Halloween, Megan Thee Stallion gives fans insight into her personal thoughts and feelings following the conviction of rapper Tory Lanez. Lanez was found guilty on three felony charges in 2022 after a shooting incident in 2020 that resulted in Megan getting shot in the foot.
Following the controversial and highly discussed trial, the โHot Girlโ coach did a one-on-one sit down on โCBS Morningsโ where King asked her if she had an intimate relationship with Lanez.
At the time, Megan denied it but nearly eight months later during her testimony in court she confessed that she and Lanez had been intimately involved.ย
At that moment, many of Lanezโ supporters and Meganโs haters took that admission as ammo and justification for their claims that Megan was falsely accusing Lanez of shooting her as well.ย
In the documentary, she candidly explained why she lied to King in her interview. She said, โYes, b-tch. I lied to Gayle King, b-tch. First of all, I ainโt know that b-tch was even finna ask me about that sh-t. I thought we was gonna talk about this shooting.vWhy is you asking me about f-cking Tory? Thatโs not what this is about.โ
The โBigger In Texasโ artist continued, โEven if I wasโฆI f-cked that n-gga like once, maybe twice on a drunk night. You kept catching me out of my f-cking mind.โ

Meganโs second confession is now causing a resurgence of reactions from fans who believe that Tory is actually innocent. Many believe that Meganโs former best friend Kelsey Nicole โ who was present at the time of the shooting โ was the true culprit in the situation and think she is the one who pulled the trigger on Megan.ย
Previous to the incident Kelsey had also been romantically involved with the Toronto native, which many believe sparked the argument between the three of them in the car, resulting in Megan getting shot in the summer of 2022.
Lanez is currently serving a 10 year sentence in prison and planning to appeal his case while also continuing to maintain his innocence.ย
One of Lanezโs reps issued a statement to TMZ responding to the clip about Megan admitting that she lied. They said, โThe fact that Megan lied about her sexual relationship with Tory obviously makes her an unreliable witness. If someone lies in front of millions of people, how can you trust what they say any other time?โ
