Megan Thee Stallion delivered a politically-charged performance for Saturday Night Live‘s season opener on Saturday (October 3), calling out Kentucky Attorney General Daniel Cameron for not charging the officers responsible for Breonna Taylor’s death with murder.
Now, Cameron has responded to Megan calling him a “sellout Negro” during the show. While speaking to Fox News, Cameron was asked about the not-so-welcome shoutout and while he agreed with Megan’s sentiment that Black women need to be love and protected, he found the performance to be offensive.
“The fact that someone would get on national television and make disparaging comments about me because I’m simply trying to do my job is disgusting,” he said. “But it’s not the first time we’ve seen this and it certainly won’t be the last time we see this. At the end of the day, my responsibility is to provide facts and truth and represent and stand up for justice. I think what you saw there in that display is someone who instead wants to fashion facts to a narrative.
“That narrative is simply not true in this particular case with Ms. Taylor. Again, it is a tragedy what happened to her, but what you saw on the screen there and what your viewers saw is something that I’ve had to experience because I’m a Black Republican, because I stand up for truth and justice as opposed to giving in to a mob mentality. Those are types of things that will be hurled at me in this job.”
Cameron went on to say he experienced this type of treatment in college for identifying with a “different political philosophy” as well and again, expressed disappointment that someone he doesn’t know would publicly ridicule him.
“The fact that a celebrity that I’ve never met before wants to make those sorts of statements, they don’t hurt me but what it does is, it exposes the type of intolerance that people … and the hypocrisy. Because obviously people preach about being tolerant, you see a lot of that from the left about being tolerant, but what you saw there is inconsistent with tolerant.”
The backdrop for Megan’s SNL performance, which included a rendition of her smash hit “Savage,” featured the Tamika Mallory’s words, “Daniel Cameron is no different than the sellout Negros that sold our people into slavery.”
Megan Thee Stallion-Assisted 'SNL' Premiere Marked A 4-Year Ratings High
Before Megan finished the song, she emphatically stated, “We need to protect our Black women and love our Black women ’cause at the end of the day, we need our Black women.”
Of course, this could be applied to not only Taylor but also Megan herself. Since July, the 300 Entertainment rapper has been embroiled in controversy in the wake of the Tory Lanez shooting incident. Megan was shot in both feet on July 12 after a night out with Lanez and Keeping Up With The Kardashians star Kylie Jenner. Although she was initially quiet on who the alleged triggerman was, she eventually identified Lanez as the shooter.
On September 25, Lanez released an entire album called DAYSTAR dedicated to clearing his name. As he claims on the album opener “Money Over Fallouts,” he “ain’t do it.”

Leave it up to Fox News to stir the pot, But His response was pretty tasteful and mellow. He’ll enventually end up running for Congress and then he’ll change parties once elected
Republicans will elect lots of black Republicans in the 2020 election and they will stay Republican and in the future black will vote 50% for Republicans instead of the current 90% vote to Democrats.
no one was talkin about ur political affiliations you clown!! It is a response to your inability or downright refusal to bring up ALL the evidence to the grand jury for them to make a decision on the case. you pretty much steered them into a decision that would exonerate the officers. Even the grand jurors themselves have spoken up and said you didn’t even give them the option for a higher charge which is baffling. your in the pocket of the system, call a spade a spade. yous a sellout, trying to hide behind the law.
In the pick of the system? Because the case didn’t go your way? Sound more ignorant if that’s even possible. Can’t stand when people want to talk politics, but only when it suits the current narrative. Since he didn’t bring “ALL” the evidence maybe you would like to lay it all out on here. Since you are an expert and all.
ppl lik you throw ignorance around without even knowing the definition. You are the dummy here and I dont have to go to far to see where you stand on this case. I didn’t give my opinion smart guy all you have to do is refer to the statements of the grand jurors stating that the attorney general misled the public on proceedings of the case. So he is a liar for starters, which immediately discredits him. He also lied about the charges he recommended and he didn’t confess to not bringing up any charges until the grand jury proceedings was released. This is all public information. I say he’s in the pocket of the system because any prosecutor worth their salt would at the very LEAST bring up charges to the jury to consider. He never even gave them the chance. The issue is not with the verdict, it is what it is. But when you piece together how they got to this conclusion, its filled with nothing but shadiness and foul play. a 2nd grand juror is ready to speak out as i type this
There is no need for a higher charge because the cops didnt actually do anything wrong. They are allowed to do the no knock nonsense, I dont agree but they’re allowed to. So they are doing their job, and then they get shot at. I’m sorry, but I’m shooting back. It’s dark in the house, and it is horrible that she was shot and killed. But at the end of the day, how can you charge a cop with murder or even manslaughter when they are being fired at in the dark? You gotta charge the boyfriend if anything. Cops have the right to live too, not just black people.
And all he is pointing out is that his political leanings have prepared him for the BS intolerance from the “love everybody, everybody must be included” side. So you are a clown for not understanding why he would mention his political leaning.
i understand exactly what he is saying. It is more deflection, more smoke & mirrors to divert you from the actual issue. Him being a republican has nothing to do with anything. He is only bringing that up to shield him from the fallout of the case. Which is filled with inconsistencies and lies. As evidence by the growing number of grand jurors choosing to speak out on the actual proceedings of the case. this is all public information.
Box. You obviously do NOT know the kind of people Taylor and her BF were. She had rented a car and there was a dead body found in it. Wow what a nice girl. She sold drugs, was dating a low life thug and got killed because of that life she lived. Do NOT be mad at the man who looked at the facts and pointed out that the only ones responsible for Breonna’s death are her and her loser boyfriend. End of story.
“…yous a sellout..” nice grammar you have there, you slobbering mutant.
Sellout negro lollll
Read following report to learn how a single-mom with 3 kids was able to generate $89,844 of annual income working in her spare time online from her home without selling…Go to home media and tech in tab For more Details….
BLACK LIVES DON’T MATTER TO BLACK PEOPLE…. When is that going to sink in. When are we going to protect our black innocent children from these men u want to protect. At the end of the day we need to protect our children not criminals.BLACK PEOPLE ARE THE CAUSE OF THEIR OWN DEMISE NOT THE COPS !! SNL should be taken off the air for bringing trash into our homes. A stallion is a male horse Megan idiot.
Facts! She’s irrelevant like cardi beastly, and I call her Megan the male horse, lol.
Yup been saying it from day one ?
? here we go…. Turn the dam channel…
This is very racist of SNL. They’re basically calling a successful black man a “negro” to belittle him and make him feel bad for stating the truth about the precious thug the Democrats burned cities down over. This is Naaahhhhtzeee propaganda tactics to the fullest. The D party is the new fascism fad. They don’t really care about Black people FYI. It’s an excuse to cause chaos before the election just like those caravans from Central America. All before the election.
You’re right. Dems and Reps have the same bosses anyway. I highly doubt Trump even has COVID just trying to get out of the debates … funny how heavy shit happens conveniently before an election
Once again bitching at the wrong people. Every ounce of this is racist…so this AG is supposed to ignore the oath he took, the laws he went to school to study, the actual truth of the situation…just becuz it was a black chick? He’s a sellout cuz he didn’t side step the rules for one of his “own”. It’s literal racism at it’s finest…but since they’re the “inferior” ones they are unable to oppress anybody ever so they can’t be racist…your explanation, not mine
For the record Meg did not call him anything. Tameka Mallory did. It was a recording of her powerful speech. Meg was not wrong. Neither was Tameka. B.Taylor was not even named as a victim in the court documents. They valued walls and the endangerment lives NOT lost MORE than the life of a powerful, productive, strong and loving black woman. Its bullshit. Period.
Alot of Tameka’s invloved in this
Breonna’s boyfriend started shooting at cops and shot one in the leg so cops were JUSTIFIED in returning fire and unfortunatey Breonna’s boyfriend had brought Breonna to near the door and she got shot.
Breonna should have told her boyfriend to NOT shoot at cops.
So I’m guessing that if Tory Lanez had not shot her in the foot would she had of said anything about the AG on the Breanna Case. Because before Tory put 2 in her foot, she was Riding EAZY-E Coffin “Girls in the Hood” wasn’t saying Breanna Name at all. She gonna ride Pimp-C Coffin Next after this Foot Shit get old… Already done Rick Rossed Pimp-C’S Tony Snow Name. This Girl gonna be Big as LIZZO when she hit 30. She gonna be a Lela Rochon. P.S. Fuck Tomica Wright ( Release Eazy-E 53 Unreleased Songs)
those dance moves look a bit risque. at the same time talking about race relations. black women are neglected but are they saying they sexy? hmmm…. i suppose if trump is elected to a second term they will be pissed. this is the agenda, interracial relations. these people who are actually a few right wing think race relations will improve when in the bedroom, when in relationships. there will be always be interracial relationships but when you organise that shit it is reverse genocide. TRUMP / PENCE 2020.
EVERYBODY just SHUT THE FUCK UP! . . Everything is opinionated only. . Sadly we’ll never get the FULL TRUTH on the matter of what happened that day. . People cover shit up everyday Bee and that’s on BOTH ends of the table. . But don’t think for one second that every cop go by the book. .there’s NO SAINT‘s here.
The cops knocked in the Breonna Taylor case and Breonna and her current boo did NOT open the door so cops broke down the door and by then Breonna and her boo had come near the door and Breonna’s boyfriend started shooting at cops and shot one cop in the leg so the cops fired back and Breonna was hit and died in the hospital.
Breonna’s apartment had a search warrant placed on it because her ex-boyfriend who was a drug dealer was receiving packages (likely drugs) in that address also all his other mail including bank statements and because Breonna had loaned her car to the ex-boyfirend who used it to deal drugs and visit traphouses and Breonna herself turned up on police surveillance of traphouses.
Do NOT date drug dealers and if you do NOT let them use your address after you have broken up.
Man this is so odd no pun but it just all feels scripted, the irony of using a suppose/alleged victim to defend a real victim. I hate to bring the “pr stunt move” although the sentiments felt here are felt by me and I’m sure a lot of others..but how genuine is this coming from “WAP” .. the ploy of manipulating the emotionally charge to continue masking a charade ..
The funny part is men stopped rapping and started mumbling and autotune singing and the lady’s are taking over the rap game!
If she wants to protect black people and especially black women, don’t portray stereotype behavior. Don’t oversexualize black women, don’t make song about your WAP. Don’t make those raunchy songs that make black women look a certain way. Make uplifting/empowering music, but that doesn’t get you airplay……I hate these hypocrite artists. Sayin’ anything for some $$, not thinking how it reflects on us.
Tory should’ve shot this hooker in the head. BLAM!
So let me get this straight, she’s calling that man sell out yet you originally lied to the police about Torrey Lanez shooting you in the foot to so called protect him? Hmmmmm….I thought she said she was a Savage!?????
In between standing in place and twerking your azz for 3 minutes there was a political message also?
tf with these rappers trying to be political. didn’t she just get shot
She was shot by a black man and Megan REFUSED to testify against that man,
Tory Lanez is a corny Canadian midget who should be DEPORTED to Canada.
Well the Canadian atleast spits better then 95% of the dumbed down clowns in America, talking mainstream
