Nicki Minaj Confirms She Is Dating Eminem?
UPDATE: Sources close to Nicki Minaj tell TMZ she was joking when she answered "yes" to dating Eminem.
Months after their split, rapper Nicki Minaj has moved on from Nas.
On Friday, Nicki, 35, confirmed reports that she is seeing Eminem, 44, with a simple “yes” when asked by a fan if the two rap A-listers were dating.
The day before, Nicki promoted YG's single "Big Bank," which features her. She referenced Eminem, captioning the Instagram post, “Told'em I met Slim Shady. Bagged a EM!!!”
Eminem has not commented on the dating confirmation. In December, he opened up on his love life, telling Vulture, “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.” He did admit to using Tinder.
Over eight years ago, Eminem and Nicki worked together on her song “Roman's Revenge.” Along with naming him as one of her hip-hop influences, she recently told XXL, “I remember, every time I wrote a verse to 'Roman's Revenge' and sent it to Eminem, he would send a new verse back. It was competitive, it was fun.”
