Nicki Minaj laughs off rumours of a lesbian relationship with Rihanna

LONDON - Rapper Nicki Minaj has dismissed rumours that she and Rihanna are loved up in a lesbian tryst.

“I don’t know where people got this really insane, hilarious, random rumour that she and I were living together,’ the Daily Mail quoted her as saying in a U.S. radio show.

“We had just shot the video for a song I have on the album called Fly. When I saw her the first thing I said was “So, did you hear we’re living together.

“We just started cracking up laughing and she was like ‘I can’t believe people are this ridiculous’,” Minaj said.

But the ‘Pink Friday’ singer confessed that she has not ruled out the possibility of hooking up with Rihanna.

“We’re not getting cosy. I mean, we’re not getting cosy yet,” she laughed.

“There is a possibility because she’s just like a bad ass. You never know. That would be like a crazy power couple right now,” she said.

Minaj said their Twitter exchanges were meant to be tongue in cheek but had sent the rumor mill into overdrive instead.

“People still didn’t realise we were joking. People were still hitting me saying “Oh my god, you’re so lucky. You and Rihanna?”‘ the rapper said.

“You can’t even be sarcastic any more. It was hilarious though,” she added. (ANI)
