Nicki Minaj is facing backlash from her “Barbz” on Twitter/X for allegedly scamming them by dropshipping cheap press on nails.
Some Barbz accused the rapper of charging them over $100 for “luxury” press-on Nicki Nails.
But the same cheap nails can be bought on Alibaba and Temu for less than $10.
Dropshipping allows you to order products from a vendor – usually based in China – who dropships the products to your customers in America. You don’t keep any products in stock.
Her Barbz call Nicki “Scamnika” after she launched her “luxury” press-on nails last month.
Nicki’s Barbz paid up to $120 for a “priority access pass” that gave them early dibs on the $100 nails.
But fans were upset to learn that the same press-on nails are available on Alibaba and Temu websites for much less.
One fan wrote on Reddit.com: “Anyone willing to put money into Nikki’s pocket anyway, deserves no sympathy.”
Another person wrote: “No sympathy from me. If you’re going to give your money to Nicki, you get what you get.”
Others noted that Nicki is hard up for cash to pay victims and attorneys for her incarcerated brother and her husband Kenny Petty – both of whom are charged with s*x crimes.
One person wrote: “awfully expensive paying victims and lawyers for two rapists, fines for her husband not registering as a sex offender, whatever else keeps those men afloat.”
While someone else noted that Nicki gave her husband’s crew expensive Richard Mille watches. The person wrote: “but I guess Barbz know where their money is going now.”
Question: Did you buy Nicki’s press-on nails and were they worth the price?
