A California state judge ruled Monday that Tory Lanez violated his restraining order when he performed at Rolling Loud on the same night as Megan Thee Stallion last month.<\/p>\n

As a result, Lanez\u2019s bail was increased from $190,000 to $250,000 \u2014 which he has to pay in order to remain a free man prior to his trial.<\/p>\n

The judge told Lanez, \u201cYou\u2019re very fortunate that you have the means to post bail immediately\u201d and warned that the \u201cSay It\u201d rapper, 29, will be remanded into custody if he violates the order again.<\/p>\n

Lanez was also ordered not to attend any events where Megan, 26, will be, including music festivals and award shows.<\/p>\n

At the hearing Monday afternoon \u2014 which Page Six attended via telephone \u2014 Lanez could be heard telling the judge, \u201cI understand, your honor, and I apologize.\u201d<\/p>\n

Prior to the judge\u2019s ruling, Lanez\u2019s attorney Shawn Holley claimed her client \u2014 whose real name is Daystar Peterson \u2014 was unaware that Megan was scheduled to perform at Rolling Loud, stating he had only made a guest appearance during DaBaby\u2019s set.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe court is presuming that Peterson was aware that Megan was performing,\u201d the attorney said, adding that because Lanez was not on the bill, he didn\u2019t look at it.<\/p>\n

However, the state prosecutor retaliated, \u201cTo plead ignorance is unreasonable.\u201d<\/p>\n

Holley also argued that once Lanez arrived at the event, he took \u201cmeasures\u201d to try and not be seen by Megan, whose real name is Megan Pete. The attorney then denied that her client tried to antagonize the \u201cWAP\u201d rapper.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf his intention was to harass and intimidate her, she would\u2019ve known he was there at the time,\u201d she said, adding, \u201cHe did nothing which was harassing to her. In fact, she learned about this later and upon reflecting on it realized that it was not OK.\u201d<\/p>\n

The attorney\u2019s remarks were reminiscent of what she exclusively told Page Six immediately after the event.<\/p>\n

She told us in July, \u201cThough they both performed at the same music festival, Mr. Peterson went out of his way to ensure that he would not cross paths with Ms. Pete or otherwise violate the terms of the protective order.\u201d<\/p>\n

During Monday\u2019s hearing, the judge questioned, \u201cDid it not occur to [Lanez]\u201d that Megan might be at Rolling Loud and that he wouldn\u2019t \u201cbe able to be a football field away?\u201d<\/p>\n

He then ultimately sided with the state and said, \u201cI don\u2019t think it was a good idea to even show up there.\u201d<\/p>\n

Megan was first granted a restraining order against the \u201cSay It\u201d rapper in October 2020, three months after he\u00a0allegedly shot the Houston native\u00a0in the back of her foot. The protective order also\u00a0prevents Lanez from commenting on the shooting.<\/p>\n

He pleaded not guilty in November 2020.<\/p>\n

A rep for Megan did not immediately return our request for comment.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
