Nicki Minaj is adamant she won’t let the deadly Manchester bombing stop her from touring. As she was strolling through an airport, TMZ caught up with her and asked if she was considering canceling any of her shows in light of Monday’s (May 22) tragedy. Her answer was a resounding “No.”
“We don’t operate in fear,” Minaj said. “Nope.” She agreed altering any of her plans would send the message that the terrorists won. After referring to herself as a “powerful woman,” she went on to voice her support for Ariana Grande, who was performing at the Manchester Arena the night of the bombing.
“Ariana’s my sister and I love her,” she said. “I love the people of the U.K. and I’m devastated by the news. It’s heartbreaking.”
The two singers worked together on the mega-hit “Side To Side” in 2016, and Nicki plans on touring in Manchester in the not-so-distant future.

“Of course I’m going to come through for my Manchester fans. They deserve it. I will go there in 2018.”
When asked about Donald Trump, however, she was disinterested in giving her thoughts on him and instead made a face that showed she wasn’t exactly a fan of the president.
