The “Chun-Li” rapper, 35, started the rumors after she seemingly confirmed that she was dating Eminem in an Instagram post. The post was a video of herself singing along to her featured verse in YG’s track “Big Bank,” which dropped on Friday. In the rap, she talks about Eminem, saying: “Told ’em I met Slim Shady, bagged an Em / Once he go black he’ll be back again.”
When a fan asked if Minaj was dating the Detroit rapper, she responded: “Yes.”
The 8 Mile actor joined in and responded to another user asking if they were an item. “Girl you know it’s true,” he wrote.
“Babe I thought we were gonna keep it on the low til the wedding,” Minaj quipped in return. “Yikes. I’ll talk to you when I get home.”
Minaj dated rapper Meek Mill for two years before calling it quits in January 2017. She then dated Nas for seven months but they split in January. A source told Us Weekly at the time that their relationship had “fizzled out.”
