Did Nicki Minaj take a shot at Billie Eilish?

Previously, Nicki Minaj appeared on the Joe Budden Podcast hosted by former American rapper Joe Anthony Sudden II. In the podcast, the Trinidadian rapper expressed her disappointment as she revealed how she feels excluded by fashion magazines. Apart from her music and incredible makeup skills, the rapper is widely popular for her pink hair color.

The Starships hitmaker revealed, “Everybody knew me for wearing pink wigs. You would think the biggest female rapper of all time, who has set so many trends, would have been on the cover of American Vogue, but she hasn’t.”

Minaj even admitted how she was asked to remove her pink hair for magazine covers while other celebrities were not. However, the rapper made clear that she had no problem with either Eilish nor Vogue’s editor-in-chief, Anna Wintour. Instead, Minaj revealed how she was a fan of the ‘Bad Guy’ singer, claiming how Eilish has got everybody wearing a certain hairstyle.
