A social media commentator and blogger was found liable Monday in a defamation lawsuit filed by hip-hop star Megan Thee Stallion, nearly a year after the artist accused her of participating in a coordinated online campaign to smear her reputation.
According to court documents obtained by ABC News, Milagro Cooper—known online as Milagro Gramz—was found liable for defamation, intentional infliction of emotional distress, and promoting an altered sexual depiction.
Megan Thee Stallion, whose legal name is Megan Pete, testified that Cooper engaged in a targeted harassment effort designed to intimidate and discredit her. Pete alleged that Cooper acted as a “paid surrogate” for rapper Tory Lanez, spreading falsehoods on his behalf after Lanez was convicted of shooting and injuring her in a July 2020 incident.
“We’re thankful for the jury’s commitment to reinforcing the importance of truth, accountability, and responsible commentary on social media,” said Megan’s attorney, Mari Henderson. “This verdict sends a clear message that spreading dangerous misinformation carries significant consequences.”
Under the ruling, Cooper must pay $75,000 in damages to Pete.
Speaking to reporters outside the courthouse, Cooper said she accepted the jury’s decision.
“I am not ecstatic—of course, you want things to go your way—but I respect the jury and what they decided, and I think I made out pretty good,” she told ABC affiliate WSVN.
“I am just happy to be moving forward. It wasn’t a multimillion-dollar verdict, and I think that’s a blessing. God is good through and through,” she added.
