Nicki Minaj dismissed Internet rumors that she is pregnant with her second child.
The rumors started after Nicki performed at the Essence Festival in New Orleans recently.
The rapper was greeted by huge crowds that turned out to see her when she arrived at a cafe for a meet and greet in London. The line wrapped around the block.
The Barbie was in London, England where she headlined the Wireless Music Festival on Sunday, July 10.
While answering questions on Instagram Live ahead of the concert, a fan asked, “Are you pregnant?”
Nicki replied:
“Am I pregnant? Oh, I did mean to tweet this: I’m not fat, y’all, I’m pregnant. 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. But thanks, guys, for all the congratulatory messages.”
Nicki’s husband, Kenneth Petty, wasn’t able to make the trip to London with her because he is on home detention in Calabasas, California.
Petty pled guilty to failing to register as a sex offender when he moved to the West Coast from New York.
He was sentenced to one year on house arrest, followed by 3 years of probation last week.
Petty served four years in jail in 1995 after pleading guilty to the attempted rape of a 16-year-old girl.
Nicki and Kenneth have a toddler son nicknamed “Papa Bear.”
