“Ow that’s me! No!”

“@grizzleearts the fact that I thought Grizz (one of my fave ppl in all the land) was a peeping tom & began stomping him out. 😩🤣 Grizz my apologies I love you.”
Nicki Minaj Announces Pink Friday 3 Instead of Pink Friday 2 Deluxe
On September 16, 2024, Nicki Minaj took to X to announce an exciting update: rather than releasing a deluxe version of her album Pink Friday 2, she would be producing a brand new album. In her tweet, Minaj stated:
“I’ll still incorporate new songs like #Mamita & [The “anxiety” song] for the remainder of the tour tho…and I’ll announce the new date within the next couple weeks. The new music is just too good to be thrown away on a deluxe album.”
This announcement followed the previous news that the deluxe version of Pink Friday 2 was set to drop on September 13, 2024. Hinting at the upcoming project, Minaj added:
“Last night, the songs I recorded were just way too iconic. I love you guys so much. You know that. I know you do. I’ll still give you something leading up to the announcement, so no worries.”
Minaj emphasized the significance of Pink Friday 2, stating that each song was arranged in a specific order meant to honor the album’s integrity. She expressed her desire to be “certain”about every decision surrounding both Pink Friday 2 and Pink Friday 3.
“Could You Guess Who She Works For?”— Nicki Minaj on Fired Assistant
On September 19, 2024, Nicki Minaj used X to voice her frustrations about an employee, raising issues about a privacy breach involving a food delivery. She remarked that the person who placed the order did not keep her name confidential, resulting in a restaurant sending her a message on the delivery bag. Minaj expressed her displeasure with the situation by tweeting:
“Thank God I don’t eat the food in this place. Imagine seeing this written on a brown paper bag. Why would a person placing an order say who it’s for? Odd? Or?”
After a fan advised her to reassess her team, Minaj responded, stating:
“Oh she was fired last leg but was mysteriously hired again! Hmmmm could you guess who she works for?”
Minaj noted that she had not realized the employee was still on the team until this incident occurred. Fans speculated whether Minaj was once again taking aim at Cardi B, though neither rapper addressed the speculation.
Additionally, Nicki Minaj commented on the controversy surrounding Kendrick Lamar being chosen as the headliner for the 2025 Super Bowl Halftime Show instead of Lil Wayne. On September 9, 2024, she voiced her displeasure with Jay-Z regarding this decision, claiming that a “young black man”was denied his rightful position due to Jay-Z’s ego.
