Controversies	• On July 12, 2020, the popular Canadian rapper Tory Lanez was arrested for the charges of carrying a concealed weapon in his vehicle. When police pulled over his car in the Hollywood Hills, they discovered Megan Thee Stallion in the car who claimed that she had injured her foot on broken glass. Later, Megan revealed that she had suffered gunshot wounds and that she had undergone surgery to remove the bullets. In the following month, Megan claimed that Lanez was the person who shot her, quoting, "I didn't tell the police what happened immediately right there because I didn't want to die." Lanez denied all the accusations claiming that Megan's team was trying to frame him. Later, Megan also revealed that she had been offered money by Lanez and his team to keep quiet on the issue following the incident. On October 8, 2020, Lanez was charged with shooting Megan Thee Stallion by L.A. County prosecutors. A restraining order was issued against Lanez, according to which Lanez must remain at least 100 yards away from Megan and not contact her. • In February 2021, Megan's appearance on the cover of Harper's Bazaar magazine stirred a debate on people of color being photographed inaccurately. Apparently, in one of the covers, the American rapper wore a sheer black cape from Chanel accessorized with earrings from Bulgari, while in another she modeled wearing a black top from Saint Laurent with a waist belt and a choker-like neck accessory featuring a flower. In the Instagram post of Harper's Bazaar magazine, an anonymous user commented, “Nah this ain’t it – photographer didn’t even know how to capture Megan’s skin correctly.. in any of the pics. Hopefully, he learned a lot from this.” Another user wrote, “Yall clearly need a black creative director on set. This is terrible.” Later, the photographer, Collier Schorr, silenced the haters by posting a tweet that read, "Did all that talking nonsense and comes out Meg herself discussed each photo and did the edit in “total collaboration” with the photographer."
