DJ Akademiks Jokes About Suing Megan Thee Stallion

Well, this is certainly a twist! DJ Akademiks is jokingly claiming he’s planning to sue Megan Thee Stallion for defamation. His reasoning? He says she caused him emotional trauma by calling him ‘big’ – and he’s even citing her recent legal victory against Milagro Gramz as his inspiration!

Akademiks’ Humorous Legal Precedent

During a recent livestream, Akademiks explained his ‘legal strategy.’ He humorously stated, ‘We were in the process of preparing to file a lawsuit against Megan Thee Stallion.’ He suggested that Megan’s win against Milagro Gramz, who allegedly spread falsehoods and deepfake pornographic videos about her, sets a precedent. Akademiks believes if Megan can sue over perceived slights, then he should be able to sue her for calling him ‘big.’

He elaborated, ‘If she’s successful in doing this with Milagro, I’ve got a case versus her.’ Akademiks claims that Megan’s comments sent him into a ‘spiral into severe depression’ and cost him a significant amount of money. He added that fat-shaming has taken a toll on his mental health throughout his career.

Megan Thee Stallion’s Defamation Victory

This all comes after Megan Thee Stallion won her defamation case against Milagro Gramz on Monday. A federal jury found Gramz liable for spreading numerous falsehoods about Megan, particularly in the aftermath of the 2020 Tory Lanez shooting. The jury awarded Megan $75,000, though the final judgment is still pending from Judge Cecilia M. Altonaga.

Megan’s attorney, Mari Henderson, expressed gratitude for the jury’s decision, stating, ‘We’re thankful for the jury’s commitment to reinforcing the importance of truth, accountability and responsible commentary on social media.’

The Precedent of Online Discourse

Akademiks’ joke highlights the ongoing debate about accountability in online discourse and celebrity interactions. While his claim is clearly intended humorously, it touches on the real impact words can have, especially in the public eye. The legal precedent set by Megan’s case could indeed influence how future online disputes are handled.

• DJ Akademiks jokingly announced plans to sue Megan Thee Stallion for defamation.
