Nicki Minaj has confirmed to a fan that she is dating rap veteran Eminem. In an social media post, a fan quizzed the ‘Chun Li’ rapper about
whether the rumours were true that she was dating Slim Shady and she
responded with a simple ‘yes’.
Whether she’s just messing with all of us or being serious, no one knows.
She mentions Eminem in her latest song ‘Big Bank’ with YG, 2 Chainz and Big Sean when she says:
“Uh oh/Back again/Back to back Maybach, stack the M’s/Told em’ I met
Slim Shady, bag the M/Once he go black, he’ll be back again.”
Minaj’s dating history has involved – Safaree Samuels, Meek Mill and Nas
and has been linked to Drake and Lil Wayne in the past but that trio
has denied any romantic links.
The singer said last year that she was trying to stay away from guys, telling Ellen DeGeneres:
“I’m just chilling right now, I’m celibate. I wanted to go a year
without dating any men, I hate men. But I might make an exception to the
rule for him.
Eminem on the other hand has been rumours to have dated a few people but
there’s been no confirmation he had dated anyone else apart from his
ex-wife Kimberly Scott.
The 40-year-old revealed late last year that he was trying to put himself out there, but it was tough.
He told Vulture: “It’s tough. Since my divorce I’ve had a few dates and
nothing’s panned out in a way that I wanted to make it public. Dating’s
just not where I’m at lately.”
When quizzed about how he was looking for potential ‘Better-half’, he said Tinder and ‘I also used to go to strip clubs’.
“What can I say? Going to strip clubs is how I was meeting some chicks,” he told the site. “It was an interesting time for me.”
