MEGAN THEE STALLION SAYS SUMBOLISM IN 'SWEETEST PIE' REPRESENTS WOMEN RISING FRON THE ASHES: Megan Thee Stallion took to Twitter to give fans insight on the inspiration behind her and Dua Lipa's video for “Sweetest Pie.” She tweeted, “I see that the #SweetestPie video scared some people or creeped them out a lil bit… lol MISSION ACCOMPLISHED. How many times do I have to say I love horror films/ aesthetics.” One fan responded, “Megan can you just be honest. The video was meant to spread a lot of symbolism. From Dua literally being a spider demon, yall being witches, and it being the damn near apocalypse. You can say this was like Hansel & Gretel but that’s not a scary movie. This was devil worship.” Megan responded, “The symbolism of the video was how when men come for me I eat they a*s up every time and even when y’all go on y’all’s witch hunts attacking women for whatever reasons y’all make up we still rise from the ashes stronger than ever.”

I’m still tryin’ to turn the other cheek … So, I’m clapping back at somebody. and they’re like, ‘Oh, you’re purposely responding to Nicki Minaj pages!'” She continued, “I’m like, ‘What the hell is y’all talking about? I don’t care what club, gang, street you bang, I don’t give a f*ck! And it’s like that. It’s nothing, no ill intent. Everybody knows Nicki is my favorite, you can go look on the internet, I got interviews talking about standing in line for Pink Friday. I got a fake Barbie chain … I was obsessed with Nicki.”
