Megan Thee Stallion faces a serious court battle with her former camera operator Emilio Garcia. Garcia claims the rapper forced him to watch her have sex with another woman during a 2022 tour stop. The incident happened inside a moving vehicle during their European trip to Ibiza. Garcia says this created a hostile workplace because of his sexual orientation. He believes Megan would never have acted this way around a straight male worker.
Federal Judge Gregory Woods decided the case can continue after reviewing the evidence. Megan and Roc Nation tried to dismiss the lawsuit completely. They called Garcia a fraud and denied any wrongdoing occurred. The judge found Garcia's story believable enough to proceed with legal action. The discrimination and retaliation claims remain valid.
Garcia says his work situation became terrible after he complained about the incident. His hours and pay were reduced significantly over time. Eventually he lost his job completely and cannot find work elsewhere. He claims the entertainment industry has blacklisted him from future opportunities. Some parts of his lawsuit were thrown out but the main case continues.
