Megan Thee Stallion spoke with Billboard backstage at the 2019 Women in Music event, recalling how she coped with getting bullied as a child and why Beyoncé means so much to her.
Asked what advice she would give to women struggling to find their self-worth, Megan Thee Stallion told Billboard that no one should let anyone tell them they are not a queen. She then revealed that she used to get bullied when she was in elementary school.
After she was particularly upset by something said to her one day, she told her mother, who inspired her to stand up for herself. “It felt really good [to tell the bully off],” she said. “So then, after that, I just never gave a f--- about what anybody had to say about me.”
