Megan Thee Stallion reportedly rejected a collaboration with Call of Duty because of PTSD she was diagnosed with after being shot by Tory Lanez.
That diagnosis and her general mental health appear to be the reasons why she declined to collaborate with the popular video game franchise.
On Wednesday (November 19), Daniel Kinney, Roc Nation’s Senior VP of Branding & Strategic Partnerships, testified during Meg’s defamation case against blogger Milagro Gramz, where he spoke on collaborative opportunities that never materialized for the Houston Hottie.
According to journalist Meghann Cuniff, Kinney said that Megan “ditched ‘Call of Duty’ when she learned she would be a shootable character in the game.”
In a follow-up post on X from Cuniff, Kinney reportedly said the offer “triggered her and she full stop said ‘I’m not doing this.'”
According to TMZ, the 30-year-old entered an intensive medical program after Lanez shot her in 2020. Called Dialectical Behavior Therapy, she said that the treatment helped her process her trauma and cost around $240,000.
Per the outlet, Megan’s attorneys officially went on record to say that she’s been diagnosed with PTSD, and that the doctor who diagnosed her is Dr. Lenore Walker.
Megan sued Gramz last October for defamation and accused her of carrying out a “campaign of harassment and cyberbullying” in connection with Lanez’s conviction for shooting the Good News rapper.
Last week, Lanez and his attorney, Crystal Morgan, were held in contempt of court and fined $20,000 after he declined to answer questions in a deposition for Megan’s case against Gramz.
Lanez asked what sanctions he would get if he didn’t answer any question, and once he found out he could be held in contempt of court, be sanctioned, and face additional jail time, Lanez responded with “Whatever the fines are, I’ll pay them. I’m a millionaire. I don’t care.”
After Lanez told Megan’s lawyers to “calm down” and “relax,” followed by calling them a “liar,” he left the room to end the deposition, alleging that he hadn’t been shown all of the exhibits that Megan’s team intended to use during the deposition beforehand.
Lanez eventually returned to the room, got upset at Megan’s lawyer, and then left again while making derogatory comments towards them and refusing to return to the deposition afterward.
