Megan said cause of the argument, which escalated quickly, was completely mundane: “The argument was because I was ready to [leave the party] and everyone else wasn’t ready to go. And I didn’t even want to move. Lanez was arrested in connection with the incident and later was arrested again for allegedly violating court orders from contacting her; he posted bail in both cases. And he said, “Dance, bitch.” And he started shooting. The report, which has been obtained by Variety, makes multiple references to gunshot wounds and bullet fragments in her feet, sometimes but not always hedged as “suspected gunshot wounds.” She said her instinct was to protect her friends, even though they had just argued, especially because the incident took place at the height of the Black Lives Matter protests.
The "Sweetest Pie" rapper gave CBS's Gayle King her first TV interview about the alleged shooting.
Shortly after the shooting, Megan named Lanez as the person who allegedly shot her in the feet and even shared photos of her injuries on social media.

"Like, I know this happened to me and I'd rather it play out in court and the facts come out and everything comes out than me having to plead my case," she said. "Half the time, I just want to pick up the phone and call my momma and be like, 'What do I do?' Like it's too much.

Speaking with Gayle King, rap superstar Megan Thee Stallion tearfully addressed the incident and subsequent attacks on her character.
“I asked the driver to pull over and let me out of the car. “I should not have gotten back in the car.” She said the other parties in the car repeatedly asked her to just get back in, as they were almost at their next destination. For those who still refuse to believe she was shot, Megan says she has nothing to prove. But given the circumstances and the evidence, she is perplexed as to what other explanations casual observers could be coming up with. She stuck with this version of events until doctors disclosed to police that they had had to remove bullet fragments from each of her feet – some of which remain in her foot to this day. I know this happened to me. “The George Floyd incident had just happened, the police are very much ‘shoot first, ask questions after,’ so I think, there’s a hot gun in the car, I am bleeding, I’ve been shot…they’re about to kill somebody. Megan says that the shooter stood through the SUV’s open window and let off multiple rounds in her direction. Expounding on her previous disclosure of the evening’s events, Megan explained that an argument broke out between her, former friend Kelsey Harris, and rapper Tory Lanez when she was prepared to leave a party at Kylie Jenner’s home when no one else was quite yet ready to end the evening. I was ready to go, because I had been there all day.” And I’m trying to be as nice as I can to everybody.” “This was one of [those] times where it shouldn’t have gotten this crazy.”
'I never put my hands on anybody, I never raised my voice too loud. Like, this was one of those times where it shouldn't have got this crazy,' Megan said.
I just wanted to feel like I got family and people who care about me and I can hang out with everybody and I was just going through it.” She later concluded, “I’d rather it play out in court and the facts come out than me having to plead my case [in the court of public opinion]. I’m a victim. It was helicopters, I was like, ‘Oh my God, we all about to die.’ The George Floyd thing had just happened—the police are very much ‘shoot first, ask questions after.’ So I’m like, ‘It’s a hot gun in the car, I’m bleeding. “I didn’t want to see anybody die so I said I stepped on glass. She then went on to explain that Tory allegedly began apologizing profusely in the moments after and even went so far as to promise to give her and her friend $1 million if they didn’t say anything about what happened. I don’t know if he could shoot me and kill me.’ I was really scared because I had never been shot at before. So I get back in the car, it’s like it’s getting worse. So I get out the car and it’s like everything happens so fast. ‘Cause I’m like, ‘Oh my God, if I take the wrong step I don’t know if he could shoot something that’s like super important. At that point the argument wasn’t even with me, the argument was with the two people in the backseat. “It was an argument because I was ready to go and everybody else wasn’t ready to go. “But I never put my hands on anybody, I never raised my voice too loud.
