American rapper Nicki Minaj was arrested at Amsterdam Schiphol Airport on Saturday morning after authorities allegedly found drugs in her luggage.
The 41-year-old artist was in the Netherlands for a performance at the Co-op in Manchester as part of her Pink Friday 2 World Tour.
According to reports, Minaj was stopped by Dutch police after landing in Amsterdam, where her luggage was searched, and pre-rolled marijuana joints were discovered.
The rapper took to social media to live-stream the incident, claiming that the drugs did not belong to her, but rather to her security personnel.
Minaj alleged that her bags were taken without her consent and that her security team had already informed authorities about the joints. She also claimed that the pilot asked her to take down her Instagram post about the incident.
After paying a fine, Minaj was released from police custody in Amsterdam. However, her scheduled concert in Manchester has been postponed due to the incident.
This incident has sparked controversy and debate among fans and critics alike, with some questioning the handling of the situation by authorities and others expressing concern for Minaj’s actions.
