Megan Thee Stallion information lawsuit in opposition to blogger she claims has been engaged on behalf of Tory Lanez – and ‘shared a deepfake pornographic video’ of the rapper
- Lanez, 32, was convicted on three felony counts for shooting the rapper
- Musician received a 10-year prison sentence in August 2023
- Megan’s lawyer filed suit after the ‘publication of false narratives’ for years
Megan Thee Stallion is suing YouTuber and social media personality, Milagro Gramz, for allegedly acting as a ‘mouthpiece and puppet’ for Tory Lanez, who shot the rapper in 2020.
In a new lawsuit filed Wednesday, Megan’s attorney Alex Spiro accused Gramz, real name Milagro Elizabeth Cooper, of carrying out a public campaign to ‘denigrate, belittle, insult, and spread false statements’ about Megan, 29, on behalf of Lanez, 32.
The blogger is accused of going as far as to share a ‘deepfake pornographic video’ depicting the rapper, real name Megan Pete – a move that Spiro says violates a Florida statute banning ‘altered sexual depictions’ of real people.
In a statement shared with DailyMail.com, Megan said: ‘It’s time to hold bloggers accountable for years of harassment, cyberbullying and the publication of misinformation about my personal and professional life.
‘I’ve endured countless attacks on my character based on false narratives from social media bloggers misrepresenting themselves as journalists.’

She continued: ‘It’s unacceptable behavior and these individuals need to understand there will be repercussions for recklessly posting lies and defamatory falsehoods.’
In a statement posted to X, Gramz acknowledged the lawsuit and confirmed that she had ‘been informed that I’m being sued by Alex Spiro on behalf of his client Megan Thee Stallion.’
After quoting from the letter, she added: ‘Of course we’ll chat about it. They threw in the tape too.’
The lawsuit claims that Gramz spread false statements ‘for no other reason than to bully, harass and punish Ms. Pete for Mr. Peterson’s conviction and to tarnish her reputation, causing emotional distress.’
Citing the bloggers decision to share the alleged deepfake video, the suit read: ‘The lengths to which Defendant Cooper goes to harass Ms. Pete knows no bounds. For example, she has gone so far as to share a deepfake pornographic video of Ms. Pete.
‘After Defendant’s conduct led to a firestorm of negative reaction from others, Defendant doubled-down in a YouTube video on June 9, 2024, claiming Ms. Pete was a “professional victim” and denying any wrongdoing.’
It continued: ‘But Defendant is wrong—her conduct was an unlawful promotion of an altered sexual depiction and caused Ms. Pete severe emotional distress and reputational harm.’
The suit noted that Megan has ‘repeatedly tried to stop Defendant Cooper’s misconduct’ and ‘asked what it would take to stop being posted on Defendant’s platforms.’
In a statement posted to X, Gramz acknowledged the lawsuit and told her followers: ‘Of course we’ll chat about it. They threw in the tape too’
‘In response, Defendant provided the snide advice that Ms. Pete should “just get over it, or go away,” the suit alleges.
Megan’s attorney wrote in a letter to the blogger: ‘Ms. Pete—a victim of violent crime and champion of women’s rights to her millions of fans worldwide—will no longer stand for defendant’s campaign of harassment.’
He stated that Gramz repeatedly spread falsehoods about the case, including questioning whether Megan was even shot and making the claim that the rapper was ‘caught trying to deceive the courts.’
It is claimed that Gramz most recently pushed the ‘outlandish claim’ that the gun used in the shooting had gone missing, as an example of how the YouTuber has been acting as a ‘paid surrogate used to spread lies’ on behalf of Lanez.
Lanez was convicted on three felony counts in August 2023 and received a 10-year prison sentence.
The Canadian musician, who recently filed an appeal to his guilty verdict, was convicted after a bitter war of words with Megan – leading to equally heated public discourse by fans of the hitmakers.
Following his conviction, Lanez could be deported to Canada, where he was born.
Lanez was raised from birth in Brampton, Ontario, before the rapper’s family moved to Montreal, and then later relocated south of the border, first to Miami and then to Atlanta.
Lanez was found guilty by a unanimous jury on three firearm charges: assault with a semi-automatic firearm, shooting a firearm in a grossly negligent manner and carrying a concealed firearm in a vehicle.
Lanez was found guilty in the 2020 shooting of Megan Pete, 29, which left her wounded with bullet fragments in her feet. The rapper was convicted and sentenced to 10 years in prison
The rapper, whose real name is Daystar Peterson, has been in the general population of the North Kern State Prison
In an emotional testimony during Lanez’s trial, Megan Thee Stallion admitted she had had a sexual relationship with the defendant and recounted how they got into an argument in the back of his SUV while in the Hollywood Hills.
Early in the day on July 12, 2020, they had attended a pool party thrown at Kylie Jenner’s home, and the two had been drinking prior to their subsequent argument.
Megan testified that she asked Lanez’s driver to let her out of the car, at which point she said he screamed ‘Dance b****!’ and began firing his handgun at her.
He allegedly shot it five times and hit the WAP rapper in the feet, which later required surgery to correct the damage.
Megan then claimed he had offered her and her friend Kelsey Harris $1million dollars to stay silent about the shooting, as he was ‘on probation’ already.
Megan also claimed Lanez apologized to her after the fact and attributed the shooting to him being drunk.
