Nicki Minaj Admits Her Mistake Fueled Pregnancy Buzz, ‘I Said it Wrong’

Nicki Minaj says she was just trying to make a funny … and instead made all her fans believe she’s pregnant again. Spoiler alert — she’s not.

Here’s how it all went down … before Nicki got on stage at London’s Wireless Festival, she went Live on Instagram for a little pre-show chat with the Barbz. When one of them asked if she and Kenneth Petty were expecting their 2nd baby, she immediately responded, “I’m not fat, guys, I’m pregnant. Sorry” … and then she rolled her eyes.

Of course, her screen was immediately flooded with congratulations and that’s when Nicki realized … “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.”

Hmmm … we’re thinking Nicki’s too social media savvy for that kinda screw-up. We smell a troll job, but a funny one. Nicki and her husband had their first kid, a baby boy, back in September 2020 — and they still haven’t revealed his name.

As we reported, Kenneth is gonna have a lot of face time with the kid, as he was sentenced to one year of home confinement — in their luxurious Calabasas mansion — for failing to register in California as a sex offender.
