Nicki Minaj’s highly anticipated Pink Friday 2 tour in England took a swift and unexpected turn on Saturday after the rapper was briefly detained by Amsterdam authorities for allegedly carrying drugs in her luggage. Mere hours before her scheduled performance, the show was abruptly cancelled.
Arrest and Fines
According to the authorities, Minaj was arrested at Schiphol Airport on suspicion of exporting soft drugs. “We have just released a 41-year-old American woman who we arrested this afternoon at Schiphol on suspicion of exporting soft drugs,” confirmed Dutch authorities.
Minaj was reportedly charged with heavy fines before the concert was officially called off. During a pre-concert Livestream, Minaj can be seen being approached by police who ask her to stop the show and cooperate with the investigation.
Tour Cancellation
“Despite Nicki’s best efforts to explore every possible avenue to make tonight’s show happen, the events of today have made it impossible,” a statement from Co-op Live Arena clarified, leaving fans disappointed and eager for updates on the rescheduled date.

Ahead of her arrest, Minaj took to social media to share footage of the incident at the airport and claimed that her tour was being deliberately sabotaged. “They’re being paid big money to try to sabotage my tour b/c soooooo many ppl are mad that it’s this successful & they can’t eat off me,” she stated.
Fan Disappointment
Minaj’s fans expressed their disappointment and support on social media, urging the authorities to clarify the situation. Many acknowledged that due process should be followed but also expressed concern over the impact on Minaj’s tour and reputation.
Law Enforcement Response
The exact amount of the fine imposed on Minaj remains undisclosed, and the authorities have declined to comment further on the case. The investigation is ongoing, and it remains to be seen whether additional charges will be filed.
