Tory Lanez loses appeal to add new testimony in Megan Thee Stallion Shooting case

Megan Thee Stallion, the girlfriend of NBA star Klay Thompson, got new progress from her shooting case against Tory Lanez on Wednesday, Aug. 13. In a report from the Los Angeles Times, the California Court of Appeals denied the request of Lanez for two new testimonies about the shooting of Megan Thee Stallion in 2020.

Citing an initial report from Complex, Lanez's appeals include his driver not testifying in the case, and bringing in statements from a security guard, who is believed to be with Stallion's former friend Kelsey Harris.

As part of the new appeal, Lanez alleges that Harris had a gun in the shootout after a bodyguard heard her in a conversation. Such an instance would mean that Lanez did not shoot anybody, according to his lawyers.

Lanez is currently serving a 10-year sentence for the incident, which was served in 2023. Lanez was once romantically linked with Stallion, but it has since fallen off after the incident.

This comes as Stallion has been on the news recently as she hardlaunched her boyfriend Klay Thompson last month.

Stallion and Thomson were seen in a red carpet event in New York City last month, posing while holding each other's hands.

The two have also been seen in each other's social media activities as Thompson enjoys his time away from basketball during the NBA's offseason.

Megan Thee Stallion gives sweet compliments to Klay Thompson.

Klay Thompson is unlike anyone Megan Thee Stallion has dated before, according to the rapper.

In an interview with PageSix at the Pete & Thomas Foundation Gala last month, Stallion expressed adoration with Thompson as she complimented his character in one of her first statements since confirming their relationship.

"This is my first relationship where I've ever been with somebody who's genuinely a nice person, and he makes me genuinely happy," she said. "I just never dated somebody like him before and I'm just grateful that he's here by my side and he feels the same way about me."

Thompson is a four-time NBA champion, making his mark during his time with the Golden State Warriors. He is now entering his second season with the Dallas Mavericks after signing with them last year.

Rumours about their relationship started in early July, but the two have since confirmed through separate Instagram posts.
