The rapper filmed herself becoming questioned by police who detained her right before she could depart the airport for her show in Manchester at the Co-op Live arena for the upcoming halt on her Pink Friday 2 Tour.

Minaj was “arrested … at Schiphol Airport since of possession of comfortable medicine,” a spokesperson for the law enforcement in the Netherlands informed NBC.
According to Minaj’s recording, a man in a law enforcement uniform described to her that she “would get a lawyer at the office” and they would go “as quick as achievable.” She was then told “to get into this [police] van and go into the precinct with no attorney present.”
For the duration of the verbal trade, Minaj alleged that airport security questioned that she make a “statement with no lawyer present” just after “pre-rolls” (ready-to-smoke joints filled with cannabis) had been allegedly identified in her baggage.
Right before the meant arrest, the “Anaconda” strike-maker designed a series of posts on X (formerly recognised as Twitter) about her luggage obtaining searched at the airport.
