Nicki Minaj is doubling down on her feelings toward Don Lemon.

Fresh off her appearances at the MELANIA world premiere and the Trump Account Summits this week, the Queens rapper is back at the center of cultural chaos. In this instance, it’s her on-going war of words with former CNN anchor Don Lemon.
Minaj recently sat down with Katy Miller for an upcoming episode of Miller’s podcast, set to drop February 3. In a teaser clip that is already going viral, Miller put Minaj on the spot. She asked the “Superbass” rapper if she had anything to say to Lemon after previously calling for his arrest over a controversial church protest report in Minneapolis. Lemon had since fired back, calling Minaj “racist,” “unhinged,” “homophobic,” and “out of her depth.”
Nicki’s response? Short and direct.
“C-ocksucker stop,” she said with a laugh, nodding towards Miller as the two shared a chuckle.
@katiemiller @Nicki Minaj on Don Lemon calling her racist, unhinged, homophobic, and out of her depth: “C*cksucker. Stop.” Completely prophetic.
Ironically, Lemon was arrested by federal agents on Thursday, Jan. 29. His attorney, Abbe Lowell, released a statement regarding the arrest.
Attorney for my colleague and friend Don Lemon has released a statement saying Don was arrested by federal agents in LA last night. This is outrageous and cannot stand. The First Amendment is under attack in America! pic.twitter.com/V4TVEK7Icy

Lemon’s former employer, CNN, also released a statement, calling the arrest “unacceptable,” in support of the long-time journalist.
