Nicki Minaj sparked a giant Twitter debate on the COVID-19 vaccine earlier this week that bled onto national news channels and numerous online publications.
On Monday (September 13), the multi-platinum rapper revealed she wouldn’t be attending the 2021 Met Gala because proof of vaccination was required for entry, and she wanted to do more “research” before she felt comfortable enough getting one.
She also claimed a friend of her Trinidadian cousin got the vaccine, which he believed caused his testicles to swell. Of course, that led to an onslaught of jokes that even made it to The Daily Show with Trevor Noah.
But according to CNN anchor Don Lemon, the White House was more than willing to educate Nicki on the vaccine. On Wednesday (September 15), Lemon tweeted, “A source tells CNN that @NICKIMINAJ was offered a conversation with a doctor to clarify the efficacy and side effects of the vaccine not a visit to the White House. A White House statement is coming shortly.”
Lemon followed up with, “A White House official tells @cnn’s Jeff Zeleny that ‘As we have with others, we offered a call with Nicki Minaj and one of our doctors to answer questions she has about the safety and effectiveness of the vaccine.'”
Nicki Minaj appeared wildly offended her beliefs were being challenged online and wound up getting slamming television host Joy-Ann Reid who she thought took her words out of context.
“A lying homophobic coon I guess I can join in the reindeer games too right,” she tweeted. “Ppl can go on tv & lie on me, I can report on them, too right? Doesn’t have to be truths. It can be half truths. Uncle Tomiana asked who on earth would trust the US FDA guys… @JoyAnnReid.”

She later added, “This is what happens when you’re so thirsty to down another black woman (by the request of the white man), that you didn’t bother to read all my tweets. ‘My God SISTER do better’ imagine getting ur dumb ass on tv a min after a tweet to spread a false narrative about a black woman.”
Reid initially slammed Nicki for using her massive platform to “not encourage” the Black community to protect themselves from COVID-19.
Nicki has yet to publicly reply to the White House’s offer.
look at how afraid they are of ppl having their own opinion
Stating your opinion as fact is the problem. Nevermind the made up story. Use logic and not your ego.
Can’t trust the White House. Probably the most dishonest administration in our lifetime
Found the Trump supporter
The vaccine is not safe. The vaccine is not effective. That’s the facts. End of story. Hate her but if this is what gets people to actually go read the horror stories than so be it
Thank you Fact. I was on the fence about getting it, but when I listened to doctors and scientists discuss the benefits of being vaccinated, it took your simple online analysis to make me reconsider.
100% FACT
Found the agent!
swelling testastcles.
Sounds like a classic side effect of fucking some dirty pussy raw. Hey, but that’s just my observation from being a man and knowing these things.
ewe at least clean.
I mean I should have known the hiphopdx comment section will be filled with ignorant morons so I guess im not surprised.
The vaccine is safe and effective.
But please keep taking advice from dumbass celebrities exhibiting their stupidity.
Nikki has every right to refuse to get vaccinated. Only a fool would deny that. But the same fools who hold her up as brave don’t realize the nonsense she’s spreading is all hearsay and conjecture.
The swollen nuts have nothing to do with the vaccine and her cousin’s manz likely cheated and caught an STD. That’s why the girl bounced on him. Nikki clearly takes anything men tell her at face value. Apparently she’s doing the wrong “research”.
No one cares if people don’t want the vaccine. There’s never been a time when everyone is willing to do one thing. But when you go online spreading misinformation then yeah, you should be called out on it. A “differing opinion” is one thing. Offering “facts” you found on madeupmonkeyshit.com is another.
What are you talking about? Your missing the point. She was trying to do her own research on COVID. Twitter banned her for speaking her own mind. Do you see this has problem.
If this thing was unsafe and ineffective then a whole lot of people would have already been dead from it, seeing that this is the largest sample size of a medical product in human history. Have your opinion, and don’t take it, but don’t spread your opinion as fact. Your cousin with the fucked up testicles is a Fuck up, always has been
Man, who gives a fuck about what this bitch has to say? How da fuck do you listen to somebody who put all kinds of plastic garbage inside of her body?!
Make sure you wear some nice perfume for Grandpa Joe to sniff. They will tell you the “science” and all that. Maybe they will even tell you that they didn’t want to take the vaccine if Trump was still in office cause they would question the efficacy of it. I dunno…maybe a quick YouTube search or something. Oh wait! No, don’t do that. Then you would be able to make your own decision and see things that are out in the open. Nah. Just take the jab. It’s 100% safe and 100% effective. Get your boosters and wear your damn mask! Even though your vaccinated. And don’t forget to castigate and criticize people for making their own decisions on their own health. Cause unity and healing.
If Nicki Minaj is getting canceled for speaking here mind then there something wrong with Twitter.
When you realize the people on the antifax side of this issue are the Nicki Minajes and those kinds of dumb people, you might realize that you’re on the wrong side of this one.
White person has spoken
Lol. Not white dumb ass. You are agreeing with Nicki Minaj though, a moron.
