Megan Thee Stallion is not one to mince words, especially after she says video evidence proved her right. After flooding social media with plenty of inside looks at this year’s Met Gala, rumors began to surface that the rap superstar had been unhappily banned from the iconic fashion event after she broke one significant rule of using her phone at the venue. But if you ask Megan, those whispers couldn’t be further from the truth.
The “Savage” rapper recently clapped back at rumors head-on in an interview with People, in which she wanted to clarify that her Met Gala privileges are entirely in place. “We’re gonna dead these rumors right now, okay?” Megan declared. “People are like, ‘Oh my God, Megan, you got banned from the Met Gala. No, I didn’t, babe. Like that’s not true. Y’all made that up and ran with it. They love making [stuff up].” It all started when Megan posted several behind-the-scenes clips to Instagram, giving fans an insight into her evening at the prestigious gala. One cheeky clip shows her joking around with rapper Doechii and basketball player Angel Reese, with the caption, “We’re not supposed to have our phones, but we’re doing it [anyway].”
Given that the Met Gala is famously strict about enforcing its no-phone policy, it’s an unwritten rule imposed by Vogue Editor-in-Chief Anna Wintour herself. Some people were worried that Megan’s unfiltered social media posts might not have sat well with the fashion community. But for Megan, there are no hard feelings and behind-the-scenes drama. She even name-dropped the fashion queen to drive her point home. “Anna [Wintour] loves me, babe. That’s why my phone was out,” she said with a laugh, and any ideas of a falling out were nipped in the bud. It also strengthens the star’s developing status as a beloved face among the A-list attendees at the annual soiree.

This moment of myth-busting happens when Megan is in the spotlight again for her bold fashion choices and the relentless discourse about her highly publicized court battle with fellow rapper Tory Lanez. Megan’s interview aired just days after Lanez’s legal team vowed to share new evidence in the 2020 shooting case against the rapper. Although the Met Gala buzz had nothing to do with the case, the timing set off a media frenzy in a way that Megan seems completely unbothered by. For much of her career, Megan Thee Stallion has been the subject of public speculation and viral rumor, but she’s always clapped back with unwavering poise, often cracking a joke or branding the rakish unbothered. Her latest pronouncement is no exception. Instead of allowing the gossip mill to draw the narrative, she’s recapturing it and doing it in designer heels.
Megan’s appearance at the Met Gala this year wasn’t just a celebrity’s walk across the red carpet but a show of strength, confidence, and cultural relevance. Whether dominating on the red carpet, starting Twitter trends, or sharing her personal life in the public eye, Megan has consistently defied expectations and refused to compromise for the camera. So, the answer is a hard no for anyone wondering if the Met Gala has heard the last from the Houston hottie. Megan Thee Stallion remains on the guest list and will likely be for years. When Megan arrives, the moment comes. And plainly, so does the truth.
