The lawsuit, filed in a Florida federal court through Quinn Emanuel Urquhart & Sullivan, claims Cooper operated multiple social media accounts across X, TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube to spread false narratives about the artist.

Key allegations in the lawsuit include:

  • Cooper allegedly maintained a "close relationship" with Tory Lanez and his father
  • False claims about the missing firearm used in Megan's shooting (which remains in LAPD custody)
  • Unauthorized distribution of AI-generated deepfake videos showing explicit content
  • Livestreaming false information during court hearings
  • Using bots to amplify harmful content

The rapper seeks damages for:

  • Promotion of altered sexual depiction
  • Cyberstalking
  • Intentional infliction of emotional distress
  • Invasion of privacy

Cooper has acknowledged the lawsuit on X and indicated plans to file a countersuit, though formal legal response is pending through her attorneys.

This legal action follows Tory Lanez's conviction and 10-year prison sentence for shooting Megan Thee Stallion, highlighting ongoing challenges with social media harassment and misinformation in the entertainment industry.
