Is Nicki Minaj pregnant?

On Saturday (July 9), while in London, Nicki Minaj jumped on her Instagram Live to have a late-night chat session (it was past 1:30 a.m. London time) with her Barbz and debunk the rumors that she is pregnant. As Nicki was reading some of her viewers’ questions, her eyes lit up and she asked, “Am I pregnant?”

Nicki then said with a chuckle, “Oh, I did mean to tweet this: I’m not fat, y’all, I’m pregnant.”

The hip-hop Queen continued her live session and suddenly she corrected her previous remark and said, “Oh wait. Did I say it wrong? I’m sorry. I think I said it wrong. I meant to say I’m not pregnant, I’m fat.”

Nicki then delivered a hearty laugh as if to signal her fans that she was only trolling them. The 39-year-old rhymer was mostly likely addressing the rumors that started following her performance at the 2022 Essence Music Festival in New Orleans last Friday (July 1). A user on TikTok posted a clip of Nicki dancing to “Did It on’em” onstage with the caption, “She’s definitely pregnant.” Watch below.
