Nicki Minaj and Lady Diana, it’s the crossover we weren’t expecting. This weekend, the rapper was in concert in Birmingham, United Kingdom. As usual, she made several interludes between her songs to interact with the audience and hand them the microphone. One of them told him he was from Wales. At the mention of the word Wales [Galles en anglais, ndlr], Nicki Minaj had a revelation. “Wales…Always reminds me of one of my dear friends. She is no longer here today: the Princess of Wales. » With a sorrowful look and briefly clasped hands, Nicki Minaj called on her fans to observe a minute of silence in tribute to the people’s princess, who died on August 31, 1997 following a car accident in Paris.

The major memorial project ended with a few seconds of silence before the concert restarted with a bang. The sequence caused a reaction on social networks, in particular because Nicki Minaj was 14 years old when the ex-wife of Prince Charles lost her life. Difficult, therefore, to give credence to her mention of a “dear friend”… Unless it is a hyperbole to demonstrate all her admiration for Diana. Recently, Nicki Minaj shared a duet with her colleague Ice Spice. The title ? Princess Diana. The two artists echo the legendary style of the mother of princes William And Harry : “When we go out, we look like Princess Diana in the street” and mention London and the princess several times.

Declaration of love in 2018

THE New York Post also notes that in 2018, Nicki Minaj made her love for Diana official in a tweet that revealed the inspiration behind her album title Queen : “It is the force that causes confusion and fear […] God bless the legacy left by this woman and all those who have ever felt the same way. » The message, supported by several crown and prayer emojis, was accompanied by an extract from the shocking interview Diana gave to the BBC’s Panorama program in 1995.

We discover that the first sentence written by Nicki Minaj is in fact a quote from Diana herself. Interviewed about her image within the royal family, the person replied: “They consider me as a kind of threat even though I am there to do good. I am not a destructive person. […] Every strong woman in history has had to go through the same things. It is the force that causes confusion and fear. “Why is she so strong? Where does she get that from? How will she use it? Why does the public still support her?” Lady Diana’s strength of conviction and temperament are an eternal Source of inspiration for artists today.
