Nicki Minaj Meets Fans After Sudden Show Cancellation

Nicki Minaj stuck around to meet thousands of her Slovakian fans after her concert venue couldn't handle the tour's demanding technical requirements, according to TMZ!

At the "Super Bass" singer's Nicki Wrld Tour stop in Bratislava-Mesto, Slovakia, sources revealed that the Ondrej Nepela Arena was experiencing power outages and transformer complications while attempting to support her stage. Nicki personally came out to explain the technical issues to the audience, then spent several hours walking around the arena to greet her fans.

Watch as Nicki and her supporting act Juice Wrld walk on stage to break the news. The "Queen" rapper starts off with a message of love for all those who were in attendance and an announcer follows up with a notice of cancellation.

You guys, I want to say thank you so much for coming but there’s something that we have to tell you, first of all I f--- love you…I don’t want to keep you guys waiting for hours and hours.

In the video below, Nicki can be seen on the arena floor with a security escort talking to some of the barbz that had to miss out on experiencing her live show. She solemnly asks "How far did you guys travel? How far?" and shows visible disappointment at their response detailing a long trip. Minaj then ends the interaction with an apologetic hug.

All are not satisfied with the reasoning for the cancellation however, as the concert promoter hit back saying that Nicki herself cancelled the show and defended that the venue was in fact equipped to support her technical rider.

In this translated screenshot of a statement XL Promotion allegedly posted to Facebook, the organizations claims they've never had to cancel a concert in all their years of business.

Nicki Minaj's show was cancelled by the artist. The Agency xl promotion in almost twenty years of its existence has not cancelled a single concert. The Winter Stadium of Andrew Nepelu meets all the technical standards and the agency xl promotion respected all the conditions sent by the production of Nicki Minaj. The concert wasn't made exclusively from the nicki minaj team. We have made a number of large world productions like rammstein, Depeche Mode, Eros Ramazzotti, Lenny Kravitz, onerepublic and many others. The Official Press Release will be issued in a short time. Tickets will be filled in full.

Nicki still has about another 20 shows on her European tour and plans on rescheduling an additional Slovakian date.
