Makeup artist Akil McCoy claims he witnessed “acts of selfishness” while working for the rapper and corroborates allegations made by the cameraman suing her.

One section of Garcia’s suit reads, “After confiding in the Makeup Artist, learned of the contemplation of quitting due to possessiveness combined with lack of appropriate pay for the amount of time asked of him.” Another section adds, “Close to other creatives on team, confided in former Makeup Artist about considering leaving because had started to hire another Cameraman.”
According to McCoy, Garcia had worked a “state office job” before quitting to “risk it all follow his dreams” and work for Megan Thee Stallion, as mentioned in the lawsuit. McCoy tells The Daily Beast that he witnessed pay disparities for Garcia first-hand. “Our first trip to London he was not compensated,” he says. “I witnessed Emilio explain to Megan that he quit his job and was promised to be compensated, yet it never happened.
McCoy also claims to have witnessed Megan Thee Stallion make “sickening remarks” about a different employee, stylist Todd White, in 2019. He says those comments “made me question not only her as a person but her integrity.” As for what happened next for Garcia after he was allegedly “brought back into the fold” of working for Megan Thee Stallion, McCoy doesn’t know, but he tells The Daily Beast that “overall, justice is due for Emilio.
