*Draya Michele has apologized to Megan Thee Stallion on Twitter after mocking the rapper’s shooting incident involving Tory Lanez.
During an appearance on the Wine and Weed podcast, Draya attempted to infuse a bit of humor into the July 12 shooting, which allegedly left Megan injured and requiring hospitalization and Tory Lanez was arrested.
“I predict that they had some sort of Bobby and Whitney love that drove them down this… type of road,” Michele said. “I want you to like me so much that if I’m trying to get out the car, and you’re like, ‘No, sit your ass in the car,’ and I’m like, ‘No n—a, I’m getting out the car.’ [He’d say,] ‘No you’re not!’ Bam-bam!”
The podcast host said of her insensitive remarks, “In this moment, Draya just went viral.”
Megan Thee Stallion clapped back on Twitter while also confirming that Tory really did shoot her.
The rapper tweeted, “Dumb bitch that s–t ain’t f–king funny who tf jokes about getting shot by a n—a.”

Following the backlash to her remarks, Draya took to Twitter, to make clear that she didn’t intend to “glorify domestic violence.”
“I was trying to say just love me deeply,” she claimed. “But while trying to be funny, I offended many, including meg. And I’m sorry.”
I truly don’t glorify domestic violence… I was trying to say just love me deeply. But while trying to be funny, I offended many, including meg. And I’m sorry.

In previous tweets, Megan opened up about feeling “traumatized” by the incident, tweeting, “Black women are so unprotected & we hold so many things in to protect the feelings of others w/o considering our own. It might be funny to y’all on the internet and just another messy topic for you to talk about but this is my real life and I’m real life hurt and traumatized.”

Meanwhile, Lanez, who was arrested for possession of a concealed weapon in a vehicle at the scene of the shooting, has yet to address his wild night out with Meg. The incident is still under investigation. He is reportedly due in court on Oct. 13.
