Draya Michele went overboard by making an off-color joke about Tory Lanez’s alleged shooting of Megan Thee Stallion during an interview in late 2020. You don’t mess around when you are a brand ambassador for reputable brands such as Rihanna’s Savage X Fenty. You got to be cautious in your dealings and what you say in public.
Atlanta Black Star reports that Draya Michele is now “relying on the power of positive thinking to get back into the good graces of Rihanna’s Savage X Fenty brand.”
“I predict that they had some sort of Bobby and Whitney love that, you know, drove them down this snapped-esque type of road,” she told the hosts of the “Wine and Weed” podcast. “And I’m here for it. I like that. I want you to like me so much that you shoot me in the foot too.”
Megan Thee Stallion seemingly responded to Draya’s comment tweeting, “Dumb b-tch that s–t ain’t f–king funny. Who tf jokes about getting shot by a n—a.” As a survivor of domestic violence, Rihanna wasted no time severing her ties with Draya after word of the interview spread.
Draya Michele is heading into 2022 with high hopes that her relationship with the brand can be mended in 2022.
“I would like my Savage X Fenty deal back in 2022. Just wishful thinking,” she shared in an Instagram Story along with one of her prior Savage spreads.
The “Doses of Draya” star also admitted that she played herself and elaborated about learning from her mistakes in a comment she left on The Shade Room. “The thing about it is I’m human and I make mistakes but the only difference between me and everyone else is my mistakes were made in front of the world as well as my consequences,” she wrote.
“I definitely learned a lot from this experience and I was adamant about making sure my apology was as loud as a harmful comment,” she continued. “I played myself, made triggering comments, was reprimanded, and apologized All in front of all of y’all. That’s growth. Bouncing back.”
