Flavor Flav is coming to Megan Thee Stallion‘s defense after a doctored sex tape of the “Hiss” rapper began circulated online.
Taking to X (formerly Twitter) on Sunday (June 9), the Public Enemy MC called for the Houston Hottie to be left alone as he slammed those trying to disturb her or any fellow entertainer’s peace of mind.

The 65-year-old’s post arrived just one day after Megan Thee Stallion seemed to react to the news herself.
In a social-media post, she blasted those responsible for the video and threatened to take legal action against anyone who promotes the video as authentic.
“It’s really sick how yall go out of the way to hurt me when you see me winning,” she wrote last week. “Yall going too far, Fake ass shit. Just know today was your last day playing with me and I mean it.”
Later that night, she actually broke down in tears while performing “Cobra” as part of her Hot Girl Summer Tour stop in Tampa, Florida.

Fans inside the venue captured the tearful moment on camera, with footage showing Meg attempting to perform the song but repeatedly choking up. At one point, she even held her head in her hand as she cried.
“I’ma give you this performance without tearing up,” she said on stage, letting the first few lines of the song play before she performed her vocals.
Despite her emotional struggles, she eventually retained her focus and finished the track in emphatic fashion.

Released soon after the conclusion of Tory Lanez‘s assault trial for shooting her back in July 2020, “Cobra” features Megan Thee Stallion wrestling with topics such as depression, suicide, betrayal and heartbreak.
“Breakin’ down and I had the whole world watchin’/ But the worst part is really who watched me/ Every night I cried, I almost died/ And nobody close tried to stop it,” she raps on the song. “At night, I’m sittin’ in a dark room thinkin’/ Probably why I always end up drinkin’/ Yes, I’m very depressed/ How can somebody so blessed wanna slit they wrist?”
