Authorities in Amsterdam recently arrested Nicki Minaj for alleged drug possession, leading to the cancellation of her show in Manchester. The Grammy nominee was taken into custody after officials claimed she was "carrying drugs," a charge which Minaj vehemently denied.
Despite her protests, the "Barbie World" rapper was seen stepping into a police vehicle in a video shared on Instagram. Concerned about her upcoming show, Minaj was assured by an officer that efforts would be made to get her to the venue as soon as possible.
Minaj, who is currently on her "Pink Friday 2" World Tour, had her show in Manchester canceled following the legal ordeal. Authorities in Amsterdam confirmed that she was booked "on suspicion of exporting soft drugs" and issued a fine.
In a series of posts on social media, Minaj refuted the allegations, claiming that the drugs found belonged to her security team. She expressed frustration over the situation and accused her former team of deliberately causing her to miss the show to generate negative publicity.
While marijuana is legal in Amsterdam in limited quantities, it remains unclear if Minaj was accused of carrying other types of drugs. The incident has sparked discussions about drug laws and airport security procedures.
As the situation unfolds, fans and critics alike are eager to see how Minaj navigates this legal challenge and its impact on her career.
