Megan Thee Stallion Says 'It's About Time' Music Tackles Homophobia

The Hot Girl herself is taking a stand for the LGBTQ+ community.

Just in case you needed a reminder, we stan Megan Thee Stallion in this house.

In a recent interview with People Magazine, the Grammy-winning"Thot Sh*t" and "WAP" rapper opened up about the need for more acceptance when it comes to LGBTQ+ folks in mainstream music, and how it's more important than ever for a reckoning to happening when it comes to the homophobia and hate that still plagues the industry.

"It is about time," she told People about more LGBTQ+ acceptance. "Representation is important, and it is really crucial for us all to have compassion and acceptance of every human."

Megan's comments come on the heels of controversy regarding fellow rapper and collaborator DaBaby, who rightfully received backlash after he recently made homophobic comments about those living with HIV/AIDS during his set at Miami's Rolling Loud music festival in July.

After losing out on all sorts of other musical festival appearances and concert bookings, other high-profile celebs also spoke out against DaBaby's comments, including pop superstar Dua Lipa, who collabed with the rapper on their chart-hit remix of "Levitating."

"I'm surprised and horrified at DaBaby's comments," Lipa said in an Instagram Story in response to the DaBaby controversy. "I really don't recognize this as the person I worked with. I know my fans know where my heart lies and that I stand 100% with the LGBTQ community. We need to come together to fight the stigma and ignorance around HIV and AIDS."

In a world full of homophobes and haters, be more like Meg!
