Nicki Minaj Honors ‘Dear Friend’ Princess Diana at UK Concert

Posted on the 12 June 2024 by Sandeep Malik

Nicki Minaj, the globally renowned rapper, encountered a series of events during her The Pinkprint Tour. Recently, she faced a significant setback when she was arrested in Amsterdam on suspicion of possessing soft drugs. However, she vehemently denied the allegations, attributing the substances to her security guard. Despite a brief period of detention, she was eventually released. Unfortunately, this incident led to the unfortunate cancellation of her Manchester show, much to the disappointment of her fans.

Nevertheless, the 41-year-old rapper spared no effort to captivate her audience during her Birmingham performance, transforming it into a vibrant celebration. During the show, Minaj also took a moment to pay tribute to Diana, Princess of Wales, a beloved figure in the British royal family.

Interestingly, Minaj, who affectionately referred to the late Princess Diana as a dear friend, was only 14 years old at the time of Diana’s passing. Amidst cheers from the audience at Resorts World Arena, Minaj addressed the crowd in a British accent, stating:

“Wales – it always brings to mind a cherished friend of mine, though she’s no longer with us, the Princess of Wales. Let’s take a moment to honor her with silence.”

While some attendees were puzzled by the gesture, many speculated it to be a nod to Minaj’s 2023 hit song ‘Princess Diana,’ featuring rapper Ice Spice. The song centers on themes of royalty and commanding respect in one’s own life, mirroring the iconic status of Princess Diana.

Just days prior, Nicki Minaj was reportedly found in possession of around 100 grams of marijuana, a claim she vehemently refuted. She subsequently paid a fine to continue her journey. Following the cancellation of her show, Minaj acknowledged the disappointment expressed by her fans.
