Megan Thee Stallion just won a defamation case against a blogger named Milagro Cooper, who posts as Milagro Gramz. A federal jury in Florida decided Cooper lied about the rapper, whose legal name is Megan Pete, regarding the 2020 shooting by Tory Lanez. They also said Cooper caused emotional harm and shared a fake, explicit video.
The lawsuit claimed Cooper ran a harassment campaign after Megan identified Lanez, legally Daystar Peterson, as her shooter. Lanez is already serving a decade in prison for the felony assault. Megan testified that Cooper acted as a paid mouthpiece for Lanez, spreading false claims that she was not shot. Cooper admitted to getting money from Lanez's dad.
The jury awarded Megan 75 grand. Her lawyer said the verdict shows there are real consequences for pushing misinformation online. Cooper told reporters she felt the outcome could have been worse and was ready to move on.
