Megan Thee Stallion Cameraman Alleges She Forced Him To Watch Her Have Sex
Megan Thee Stallion is getting sued by her former cameraman after he alleges she forced him to watch her have sex. The rap star is being accused of harassment by her former employee for creating a “hostile, abusive work environment,” according to the suit, obtained by NBC News. Emilio Garcia worked for Megan as an independent contractor from 2018 to June 2023.
Garcia claims that while in a foreign country with Megan he was trapped in the car and forced to watch her have sex with a woman. Garcia and Megan were traveling from Ibiza, Spain, in June 2022 when, after a night out, the rapper and three women came back in the SUV. Garcia claims that Megan and one of the women began having sex next to him in the car.
“I felt uncomfortable. I was kind of frozen, and I was shocked. At kind of just be the overall audacity to do this right, right beside me,” Garcia told NBC News.
The following day, Megan asked if he was in the car with them, and after Garcia responded, she told him: “Don’t ever discuss what you saw,” the suit states.
Megan Thee Stallion Cameraman Speaks On Working Conditions Following Alleged Incident
Garcia says after the incident, “working conditions [were] intolerable,” and he began being treated differently by Megan. The cameraman says that she body-shamed him, calling him a “fat bitch” and that, “You don’t need to be eating.”
He claims that while working for Megan, he “endured a barrage of relentless sexual and fat-shaming comments plunging him into profound emotional distress,” the suit said.
In June 2023, he was let go from the position after considering quitting due to lack of bookings and “possessiveness combined with a lack of appropriate pay for the amount of time asked of him,” the suit states. In June, Roc Nation, who manages the rap star, told him that “his services would no longer be required” by Megan, according to the lawsuit even thought he was booked for a gig that month.
Due to working with the “Savage” rapper, he claims that he now “grapples with mounting anxiety, depression, and physical distress stemming from the toxic work environment,” according to the suit.
“Megan just needs to pay our client what he’s due, own up to her behavior, and quit this sort of sexual harassment and fat-shaming conduct,” Ron Zambrano, an attorney for Garcia, said in a statement. “Emilio should never have been put in a position of having to be in the vehicle with her while she had sex with another woman. ‘Inappropriate’ is putting it lightly. Exposing this behavior to employees is definitely illegal.”
Garcia is seeking “unpaid wages, as well as interest on the unpaid wages, unpaid overtime wages, and other employee benefits at the legal rate. He is also seeking statutory penalties and wage penalties pursuant to California labor laws, punitive damages according to proof, and costs he incurred, including attorneys’ fees,” according to the suit. The amount Garcia is requesting will be more than six figures.
Megan nor Roc Nation have commented on Garcia’s allegations.
