Nneka Onuorah feels “proud” of Megan Thee Stallion.

The 36-year-old director recently directed the rap star’s Prime Video documentary, “Megan Thee Stallion: In Her Words,” and Nneka took to X to praise the “Mamushi” hitmaker.

Nneka wrote on the micro-blogging platform: “I had a lot of fun making the documentary Megan Thee Stallion: In Her Words. I’m so happy that it’s reaching so many people. I’m so happy and proud of @theestallion # inherwords (sic)”

Megan, 29, spoke candidly about her personal struggles — which include being shot in the foot by rapper Tory Lanez in July 2020 — in the new documentary.

The chart-topping rap star has also spoken about her experience with depression, and Nneka recently described Megan as the “definition of strength.”

The director told TIME: “Most of us say we are strong, but we have never seen millions of people lying to us every day, saying negative things about us.

“I applaud Megan for her resilience throughout this process, which has allowed her to consistently come out on top. She truly is the definition of strength to me.”

Despite her fame and success, Nneka believes Megan’s story is still “very relevant.”

Nneka said: “This film is Megan’s open book in her heart during one of the most difficult times of her life.

“It shows how grief and depression can take a toll on your life and experiences. There is so much grief in the world right now, which is why I feel like this story is so relevant.”

In the documentary, Megan insisted she no longer worries about her critics.

She says: “I feel like I’m getting to a place where I really don’t care. I only care about myself. For the first time since my mother was alive, I care about me, because I want to feel good.

“Everything I do is for me. And I don’t feel like I’m functioning at a million percent now, but I definitely feel like I’m functioning better. I have hope for the future. next for me.”
