Megan Thee Stallionis a hot girl and she has the support of Rep. Maxine Waters, the longest serving Black female member of The House.
In support of what she called Megan’s “audacity” to release her collaborative chart-topper “WAP” with fellow starCardi B, Waters praised the rapper for the duo’s decision to reject an age-old double standard regarding the explicit content discussed in rap music for men and women in the male-dominated industry.
“[WAP represents] the ability for women to take charge of what they want to say,” Waters told Megan during their virtual chat.
The longtime music listener continued, “I had paid attention to the young gangster rap time when men were in charge … They said whatever they wanted to say about women.”
“But women didn’t say, for a long time, what they could say or wanted to say or dared to say,” she went on.
Megan appeared grateful for Waters' kind words. Said the star, “Some people might not agree with what I’m saying, they think it’s controversial and all I’m saying is, ‘Protect Black women’ and now people are [reacting] like I’m saying something crazy.”
