"Yes, b*tch. I lied to Gayle King, b*tch. First of all, I ain't know that b*tch was even finna ask me about that shit. I thought we was gonna talk about this shooting. Why is you asking me about f*ck*ng Tory? That's not what this is about. Even if I was…I f*cked that n---a like once, maybe twice on a drunk night. You kept catching me out of my f*ck*ng mind." The Mamushi singer said.
In an exclusive interview with TMZ, Gayle reacted to Megan’s confession:
“I thought it was the first time she was telling her story, and it bothered me that so many people didn’t believe her story. So, I wanted to get from her firsthand. Why she said, what she said to me is really on her. I’m still nuts about her. I think she’s been through a lot, and I can’t wait to see her documentary. I’m cheering her on.” King added while showing her support for Megan.
