Minaj said on social media platform X that she was being held over a soft drugs allegation.
AMSTERDAM – American rapper Nicki Minaj on May 25 cancelled a show in Manchester, England, after she said she was held by the police at Amsterdam Schiphol airport on allegations of possession of soft drugs.
“I’ll find a way to not only make up the date with the performance, but I’m going to create an added bonus for everyone that had a tkt for this show. Promise,” she wrote. Dutch military police confirmed a 41-year-old American woman had been held for possession of soft drugs on May 25, adding that it was prohibited to take such substances out of the Netherlands.
Another video on her social media showed a police officer telling her she was “carrying drugs”. In the video, Minaj denies that. “Now they said I have to go five mins away to make a statement about my security to the police precinct,” she said. “It’s to try to make me late so that they can write negative stories.”
Known for a bold sartorial style that includes neon costumes and wigs, Minaj – whose hits include Starships, Bang Bang and Anaconda – is considered one of rap’s most influential female artistes.“This is what it looks like when ppl are paid big money to try to sabotage a tour after all else failed,” she said.
