Megan Thee Stallion appeared in a federal courtroom on November 20th after filing a defamation lawsuit last year.

On the witness stand, the Houston rapper explained how a deepfake porn video of her damaged her mental health.

Megan claimed blogger Milagro Gramz (real name Milagro Cooper) took part in a “coordinated campaign” against her with Tory Lanez, which included promoting the fake explicit video.

According to NBC News, she said, “I feel like … to this day, I feel a little, like, defeated. Because no matter what, no matter if the video was fake or not … [Gramz] wanted it to be real.”

She added, “It’s really embarrassing to have to look at what the people don’t know. See, in a position like that, like, I know it’s not me, but to be in front of everybody else and they have to watch it – it’s really embarrassing.”

Megan teared up during the testimony, going into detail about feeling suicidal as a result of the alleged harassment.

“There was a time that I genuinely didn’t care if I lived or died,” she said. “I felt like no way I mattered. No way I should even be living. I don’t want to be here. I’m tired of waking up. I just wanted to die. I was so tired of being alive.”

The lawsuit said Gramz sought to “denigrate, belittle, insult, and spread false statements about Ms Pete on her online social media platforms, for no other reason than to bully, harass and punish Ms Pete for Mr Peterson’s conviction and to tarnish her reputation, causing emotional distress.”

Megan took the stand on the fourth day of the trial, which is currently taking place in Miami.
