MEGAN Thee Stallion and Justin Timberlake got into a heated argument behind the scenes at the MTV Video Music Awards.<\/p>\n
The rapper and singer both graced the stage separately, with Justin joining his N'Sync bandmates and Megan performing with Cardi B.<\/p>\n
\n<\/p>\n
Fan accounts on X \u2013 formerly Twitter \u2013 began circulating video footage from the MTV VMAs that showed the pair in a heated exchange.<\/p>\n
Megan, 28, was shown getting primped and ready as Justin, 42, walked by.<\/p>\n
Suddenly, the Tennessee pop star appeared to say something to the rapper that was not audible but clearly upset her.<\/p>\n
She responded \u2013 again, inaudibly \u2013 and pointed a finger in his face before rolling her eyes and getting back to what she was doing.<\/p>\n
He walked off but fans online were eager to know more about the unexpected argument.<\/p>\n
One viewer wondered: "Did Justin Timberlake say something to piss off Megan Thee Stallion? We still haven't forgiven you for what you did to Janet Jackson. Do we have a problem?"<\/p>\n
The post referenced the NFL Halftime performance during which Justin famously ripped off a portion of Janet's ensemble, exposing her breast on live TV.<\/p>\n
Someone else wrote: "We don't know what Justin Timberlake said to Megan Thee Stallion, but we're on her side!"<\/p>\n

"did Justin Timberlake say something to piss off Megan Thee Stallion?" another viewer wondered.<\/p>\n
"Omg why is Megan arguing with Justin Timberlake?" someone else wrote.<\/p>\n
Several online fans speculated that Justin commented on Megan's situation with rapper Tory Lanez.<\/p>\n
Tory, 31, was sentenced to 10 years behind bars after shooting Megan in July 2020.<\/p>\n
He was facing up to 23 years in prison and potential deportation back to Canada, where he's from.<\/p>\n
The prosecution instead sought a 13-year sentence and got just a few years shy of that.<\/p>\n
Tory was found guilty of assault and two gun charges in December. <\/p>\n
His defense team sought probation and residential drug treatment for the charges. <\/p>\n
He repeatedly claimed he was innocent, even accusing Megan of "trying to frame" him.<\/p>\n
On his album Daystar, he rapped about the shooting, saying: "I ain't do it," adding "Megan['s] people trying to frame me for a shooting."<\/p>\n
He also appeared to question the validity of Megan's injuries, rapping: "How the f**k you get shot in your foot but don't hit no bones or tendons?"<\/p>\n
Tory was arrested in July 2020 after an argument allegedly broke out between outside a part at a private residence at about 4.30am local time and shots were fired.<\/p>\n
Witnesses told Hollywood Life that an SUV at the scene sped off shortly after.<\/p>\n
During an interview with Gayle King on CBS Mornings, Megan broke down in tears while recounting the shooting.<\/p>\n
She revealed that she feared Tory would "kill her" after "shooting her in the feet."<\/p>\n
Megan broke down as she recalled that fateful night, which happened outside a party at Kylie Jenner's house.<\/p>\n
She and a friend got in an argument after the bash.<\/p>\n
Megan explained: "I asked the driver to pull the car over, and I should've stayed out of the car."<\/p>\n
She was persuaded to get back in but said that the argument got more intense so she exited one more time.<\/p>\n
At the time, Megan heard a man screaming: "Dance b***h."<\/p>\n
She recalled: "He is standing up over the window shooting and I didn't even want to move I didn't want to move too quick cause I'm like oh my god if I take the wrong step I don't know if he's going to shoot something that's like super important.<\/p>\n
"I don't know if he can shoot me and kill me."<\/p>\n
Gayle then asked her: "Were you afraid of your life?" to which Megan replied: "I was really scared cause I had never been shot at before."<\/p>\n
Megan went on: "And I looked down at my feet cause the adrenaline is pumping so hard I wasn't sure if he hit me. I can feel it but I wasn't sure what was happening.<\/p>\n
"And so I look down at my feet and I'm like 'oh my god I'm really bleeding.'"<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Megan spoke out about the shooting in August 2020. <\/p>\n
Two months later, he faced charges related to the shooting.<\/p>\n
