Nicki Minaj’s Concert Postponed, Allegations of Drug Possession and Sabotage Surface
Arrest in the Netherlands
On Saturday, rapper Nicki Minaj was detained at Amsterdam’s Schiphol Airport on suspicion of carrying drugs. According to the Netherlands military police, a 41-year-old American woman (later confirmed to be Minaj) was arrested with “soft drugs.”
Allegations of Sabotage
Minaj took to social media to livestream the incident, claiming that she was being unfairly targeted and that her tour was being sabotaged. “They’re being paid big money to try to sabotage my tour… They got mad,” she said.
Concert Postponement
The arrest resulted in the postponement of Minaj’s concert in Manchester, scheduled for the same night. The venue, Co-op Live, released a statement expressing disappointment and stating that the “events of today” made it impossible to proceed with the show.
Investigation and Release
Minaj was later released with a monetary fine after consultation with the Public Prosecutor’s Office. The exact amount of the fine was not disclosed. Amsterdam authorities confirmed her release on suspicion of exporting soft drugs.
Tour Rescheduling
The postponement has caused disappointment among fans, as the Pink Friday 2 tour was highly anticipated. The rescheduled date for the Manchester concert has not yet been announced. According to the venue, tickets will remain valid for the new date.
Possibility of Sabotage
Minaj’s accusations of sabotage raise questions about potential motives behind the incident. While the investigation into the drug possession allegations is ongoing, it is too early to determine whether there is any truth to her claims.
Impact on the Tour
The incident has disrupted Minaj’s tour schedule and potentially damaged her reputation. It remains to be seen how the allegations will affect future shows and whether she will issue a formal statement on the matter.
