The weightlifting queen has once again applauded! Nicki Minaj has addressed the shocking allegations made against her by the ‘Kate Miller’ Instagram account, which is run by someone claiming to be Nicki’s former assistant.
Social media has been an uproar since someone claiming to be Nicki Minaj’s former personal assistant took to Instagram to post shocking allegations against the rapper.
A “Roman Holiday” hit maker (real name Onika Maraj) allegedly fired her assistant for fraud and the account was made in response, the account said.
Under the name “Kate Miller,” the since-deleted account posted a statement claiming in part: “I am Onika’s former assistant who was fired for lack of evidence of fraud in her bank account.”
Who is Kate Miller?
KAte miller – @katemiller_7 – The account that claims to be Nicki Minaj’s assistant then proceeded to post a 50-part Instagram Story series. Each story contained lawsuits against Minaj’s personal and professional life.
The fraudulent account claimed that Minaj, 39, paid $75,000 for her new single, Freaky Girl, to plan it, and further claimed that Nicki owed a whopping $173 million in unpaid taxes.
The anonymous plaintiff also answered questions about Minaj from their Instagram followers, many of whom were inquiring about the rapper’s relationship with other artists like Ariana Grande, Megan Thee Stallion and Doja Cat.
Minaj responded to her alleged former assistant by banning the account, before taking to Instagram Live to respond to the allegations made. Here’s how it all went.
How did Nikki respond to the allegations?
Minaj applauded again in her usual stinging manner, expressing “a brain-dazzled mind that people are so stupid.”
She continued, “People really think I have someone to work with [sic] For me and now they are pouring tea. Chile. But it is not. It’s the sound of tea [sic] Even if it’s a stupid person, for someone to believe it, you have to be stupid. He’s clearly a kid.”
Minaj denied the allegations as one of many attempts to discredit her name, which she said on Instagram Live as integral to her stature in the rap industry.
Twitter reactions to Kate Miller’s epic
Minaj’s fans, known collectively as Barbs, turned to amateur detectives and investigated Kate Miller’s account.
It turns out that the profile picture on the account belongs to someone else, a director of digital strategy and content at a PR firm, who has no affiliation with Nicki Minaj.
YouTuber DJ Akademiks also influenced the assistant controversy.
He tweeted: “This [N]Assistant icki Minaj’s stuff is interesting but weird.. put it that way.. if you’re showing someone when you’re cutting… what does it say about you… you just stayed silent once you paid to ignore the evil stuff. Now she has stopped getting paid and wants to expose everything because…?? “
Another fan responded by asking Minaj if she needed a new assistant.
