Megan Thee Stallion is hitting back at a lawsuit that claims the superstar forced a cameraman to watch her have sex with a woman in a moving vehicle, calling the allegations “false and fabricated” by a “fraudster.”
In a scathing first response to April's accusations, Megan's (Megan Pitt) lawyers said Emilio Garcia's lawsuit “consists almost entirely of lies, misrepresentations of fact and outrageous allegations that have no basis in fact or law and no merit ».
“Plaintiff is a fraud who manipulates the court system to act as his publicist and bullhorn in a desperate attempt to boost his failing singing career while trying to tear down the successful career of Megan Thee Stallion,” the star's lawyer wrote . Alex Spiro.
In his lawsuit last month, photographer Emilio Garcia accused the superstar and Roc Nation of subjecting him to a hostile work environment over the alleged car sex incident, which he says took place during his tour of Spain in 2022. Garcia claims the incident left him “embarrassed, saddened and offended” and that Megan and Roc Nation later retaliated against him by reducing his work and ultimately terminating him.
But in Thursday's response, Spiro painted a very different picture — of a former contractor who was fired after repeatedly “falsifying his invoices and overcharging Ms. Pitt for services he never completed.”
“Angry at losing this high-profile gig and being exiled from the star's inner circles, the plaintiff filed a factually and legally frivolous Complaint,” Meghan's lawyers wrote. “Plaintiff opened a wage and employment dispute and predicated his frivolous claims on false allegations of sex, lewdness and workplace harassment for the sole purpose of creating a media firestorm to tarnish his career and reputation of Ms. Pete. “
In addition to rebutting the lawsuit's allegations, Meghan's attorneys also argued Thursday that the case was filed in the wrong place entirely. In a motion asking for the case to be removed to federal court, they argue that the case has “absolutely nothing to do with California state court” — citing the fact that Garcia lives in Texas and Megan lives in Florida.
“Plaintiff was more interested in conducting his action in an improper forum than in accurately pleading the facts on which his claims are based,” Megan's lawyers wrote.
Attorneys for both sides did not immediately return requests for comment Thursday.
