Nicki Minaj set the internet ON FIRE this week, when she dropped her devastating diss track BIGFOOT, where she savagely roasts Meg using some o the most clever lyrics since Nas’ Ether.
Media Take Out learned that Megan and her team are scrambling, to figure out how to stop the negative publicity that Nicki’s generating for the Hot Girl rapper.
And one way that they are considering – is to bring a “bullying” lawsuit against Nicki, we’ve exclusively learned.
A person close to Megan’s inner circle spoke exclusively to Media Take Out. And what she said, was EXPLOSIVE. The insider explained, “The team is considering all options, including filing a lawsuit for bullying.”
“Nicki has the free speech to say whatever she wants in her music. But all the stuff on [IG] Live and Twitter, trying to incite her fans to [Megan’s mother’s] gravesite. That’s not protected free speech,” the insider added.
“Nicki is on a campaign to do anything, including lying on Megan, to try and bring her down. That’s not acceptable,” Meg’s team insider continued.
And Meg’s insider dropped another bombshell. She claimed that if the lawsuit is filed – it won’t JUST be against Nicki – but possibly against her company and her record label also. “Nicki is doing this with the help and consent of her record label, and her promotional team – so they’re wrong too.”
She told Media take Out that Meg’s team has already consulted lawyers, and are working with social media platforms to try and stop Nicki’s “campaign” against Meg.
As for how Megan is feeling about Nicki’s online bullying, the insider told us that Meg is “devastated.”
We know what you’re thinking – how can a “bullying” lawsuit hold up in court ?
Media Take Out did some research and courts have recognized cyberbullying as possibly grounds for a lawsuit in the last 5 years. Unlike other types of bullying, cyberbullying can happen 24/7 via text, email, social media, and so on.
This type of bullying is extremely insidious. Aggressive comments, images, or other content posted online can be viewed publically, which can enable bullies to work together and increase the damage exponentially.
In just the last 12 months, courts have awarded more than $100M to victims of cyberbullying.
