Nicki Minaj Calls Out Jay-Z Over Super Bowl Halftime Show Pick
Nicki Minaj is making headlines once again, but this time it’s not for her music or fashion choices. The rapper took to social media to express her displeasure with the choice of Kendrick Lamar as the headliner for the 2025 Super Bowl Halftime Show in New Orleans.
In a series of fiery posts on X (formerly known as Twitter), Minaj called out Jay-Z, who co-produces the NFL Halftime Show, for not including her friend Lil Wayne in the lineup, especially since the show is set to take place in Wayne’s hometown. She accused Jay-Z of being spiteful and evil, and even went as far as to call him a “house n*gger.”
Minaj’s outburst has sparked a wave of reactions online, with many fans and onlookers expressing confusion and amusement at the unexpected drama. Some speculate that Minaj’s issue with Jay-Z runs deeper than just the Super Bowl lineup, suggesting that her real beef may be with Jay and BeyoncΓ©’s support of Megan Thee Stallion over the years.
Despite the controversy, Minaj’s fans have rallied behind her, with one user joking that she can’t call Jay-Z on the phone so she has to resort to tweeting her grievances. It remains to be seen how this feud will unfold, but one thing is for sure – Nicki Minaj is not one to hold back when she feels slighted.
