Megan Thee Stallion’s defamation trial revealed that she sought treatment at a treatment center for $240,000 a month after blogger Milagro Gramz posted deepfake porn of the rapper.
On Wednesday (November 19), Meghan’s defamation trial against blogger Milagro Gramz (formerly known as Milagro Cooper) resumed on November 17. On the third day of legal proceedings in Miami federal court, Travis Farris, the Houston host’s friend and manager, testified in support of Meghan. His testimony included details of Meghan going to treatment centers costing her $240,000 a month after Gramz circulated her fake porn videos.
Legal reporter Megan Cunniff covered Farris’ testimony from inside the courtroom.
“We finally took a lunch break after Megan’s friend and manager Travis Faris testified about how social media vitriol hurt Megan. He testified that he enrolled her in a treatment center that cost $240,000 a month,” Cunniff tweeted.
According to TMZ, Faris said Meghan went to a treatment center to relieve Gramsz’s emotional distress caused by posting the video. He described how Meghan came to him in tears and even apologized for having to see the video in the first place. The incident prompted her decision to seek treatment.
Cuniff also reported that Daniel Kinney, senior vice president of brand and strategic partnerships at Roc Nation, testified that Meghan’s inability to realize brand opportunities appeared to be due to her emotional distress.
“Roc Nation’s Daniel Kinney testified that Megan’s brand opportunities fell through: Activision/Call of Duty, Google Pixel, Just Eats Takeaway, and the USWNT. Megan ditched Call of Duty when she learned she would be a shootable character in the game,” Cunniff tweeted. “That triggered her and she completely stopped saying ‘I’m not going to do this,'” Kinney said.
Megan accuses Milagro Gramz of intentionally causing emotional distress by stalking, promoting and sharing deeply fake pornographic content about the rapper online and questioning whether Megan was actually shot. The Grammy-winning artist is seeking compensatory, punitive and statutory damages.
