While looking directly at Cyrus off stage, Minaj said, “And now…back to…this b—- that had a lot to say about me the other day in the press, Miley, what’s good?!”
A shocked and frustrated Cyrus responded, “Hey, we’re all in this industry, we all do interviews, and we all know how they manipulate shit. Nicki, congratulations” before strongly implying that Minaj shouldn’t be upset for not being nominated. While Cyrus tried to placate Minaj, the rapper reportedly backed away from the mic and repeated, “Don’t play with me, b—-.”
Shocked fans are still debating on whether the dust up was fake considering that Minaj did flash a smile during the interaction and she made peace with her former frenemy Taylor Swift that same night by sharing the stage with her.
However, Jezebel’s Kara Brown, who was at the awards show, reported “It definitely didn’t seem like Miley knew Nicki was going to say that.”
