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 police at Amsterdam Schiphol airport on allegations of possession of soft drugs.
The singer had earlier posted a video on X in which a Schiphol employee apparently told her that police wanted to “search all her luggage”. “Keep in mind they took my bags without consent. My security has already advised them those pre-rolls belong to him,” she wrote, referring to marijuana joints. The consumption of small quantities of cannabis is technically illegal but police choose not to enforce the law as part of a “tolerance” policy in place since the 1970s.Minaj’s profanity-laced lyrics, skin-baring videos and unique, animated flow catapulted her to fame in 2010.
