In a bombshell courtroom revelation, Megan Thee Stallion’s former manager Travis Farris testified that the rapper shelled out a staggering $240,000 for intensive therapy to cope with the psychological fallout from a viral deepfake porn video. The disclosure came during Megan’s ongoing defamation lawsuit against blogger Milagro Gramz, where Farris detailed the emotional toll of the fabricated explicit content, which Gramz allegedly promoted alongside a barrage of false claims.
Farris, known professionally as T-Farris, took the stand Wednesday in Miami federal court, painting a vivid picture of Megan’s distress. He recounted how the 29-year-old artist, reeling from the video’s circulation in mid-2024, approached him in tears, convinced many online viewers mistook the AI-generated clip for authentic footage. “She was devastated,” Farris said, according to court transcripts. The ordeal prompted a four-week residential therapy program focused on rebuilding her sense of security and self-worth, a cost Farris attributed directly to Gramz’s relentless online campaign.
The suit, filed last October, accuses Gramz— a vocal supporter of Megan’s ex, Tory Lanez, convicted in 2022 for shooting her—of cyberstalking, invasion of privacy, and deliberately inflicting harm. Farris, who managed Megan from 2019 until her mother’s death that year, described their bond as familial, like a “big brother protecting his little sister.” He vehemently rejected Gramz’s counter-allegations of a romantic affair between him and Megan, calling them baseless smears designed to discredit her narrative.
This testimony layers onto Megan’s broader struggles, including PTSD from the 2020 shooting and the loss of her mother and grandmother. As the trial presses on, with Gramz facing potential damages in the millions, the case spotlights the dark underbelly of digital harassment in the music industry. For Megan, whose resilience has fueled hits like “Hiss,” it’s a fight for vindication—and a safer digital space for survivors.
