A DJ is catching some much-deserved heat after he asked rapper Megan Thee Stallion if her curvaceous figure was due to her developing earlier than most teenagers.
“Did you develop early?” What kind of interview is this? https://t.co/bMtn13TfVb

Caught off guard by the question, Megan chuckled before answering the DJ's request.
"When I got like, in the eighth grade, I noticed that I had boobs. But definitely, I was like flat. I didn't have nothing. And then the little boys were like, you know going a little bit more crazier than usual," she said.
"So yea, I've been pretty shapely for a while now," the Houston native continued.
A full video of the interview was posted shortly after, and it's glaringly evident the host is asking the same question repeatedly but with different jargon. At one point, Smallz even asked Megan if she ever considered surgical enhancements.
Lol the name of the video is "Is Megan Thee Stallion Body Real?" to explain the questions he's asking .. here's the full videohttps://t.co/pHUvF0CSnt

Despite Megan answering the question with ease, some online couldn't help but remark how disrespectful it was even to inquire about her development, particularly given a study showing Black girls are “adulted” much earlier in their childhood than their white counterparts.
Why tf he keep pressing her with the same question in different context ????

Others even chastised DJ Smallz for neglecting to ask about Megan's budding music career.
This interview was very invasive, and just wack. Would it kill you to ask about…idk, the MUSIC???!!!!!!

Imagine doing a whole interview on a rapper… about their body.

One even made the PSA for everyone to mind the business that pays them.
Lol I like her personality, she seems very humble. But I just came to say, who cares if she is natural or not. If she got work done, so be it. If she didn’t, so be it. Her body and money is no one’s business. Do wtf you want with your own shit. Who cares.

Making history as the first female rapper signed to New York-based record label 300 Entertainment, Megan Thee Stallion recently revealed the visuals of her single "Big Ole Freak," a song from her latest EP Tina Snow.
Although she has been active on social media since the interview aired, Megan has yet to comment on the actual dialogue itself.
