Singer Michel’le’s Lifetime biopic, Surviving Compton, will premiere this weekend. It will go through the Compton native’s career, while also showcasing her tumultuous relationships with both Dr. Dre and Suge Knight – the former of which is shown beating her in the film.

Dre has since threatened to sue both Lifetime and Michel’le (with whom he has a 25-year-old son) for defamation, but it looks like she’s not worried!

Sitting down with TMZ this week, Michel’le says Dre’s threats are empty.

“I allowed him to portray himself in his story the way he wanted to portray himself, and he allowed me the opportunity to portray myself in my story,” she said. “I think my truth will stand when we get to court, if we do.”

Surviving Compton: Dre, Suge & Michel’le premieres October 15.
