During the interview, Minaj was asked how she feels about the infamous beef between her boyfriend and Drake.
‘‘They’re men, grown a– men. It’s between them,” Minaj said before being asked how the beef makes her feel.
‘‘It doesn’t make me feel good. You don’t ever want to choose sides between people you love. It’s ridiculous. I just want it to be over,” she replied.
The interviewer then asked Minaj, “Is there a part of you that thrives on drama, or is it no, just pain and unpleasantness —’’
Minaj cut the interviewer off as she replied, “That’s disrespectful. Why would a grown a– woman thrive off drama?’
‘‘What do the four men you just named have to do with me thriving off drama? Why would you even say that? That’s so peculiar. Four grown-a– men are having issues between themselves, and you’re asking me do I thrive off drama?’
‘‘That’s the typical thing that women do. What did you putting me down right there do for you?’’ she asked. ‘‘Women blame women for things that have nothing to do with them. I really want to know why — as a matter of fact, I don’t. Can we move on, do you have anything else to ask?’’ she continued. ‘‘To put down a woman for something that men do, as if they’re children and I’m responsible, has nothing to do with you asking stupid questions, because you know that’s not just a stupid question. That’s a premeditated thing you just did.’’
Minaj then called the interviewer ‘‘rude’’ and ‘‘a troublemaker,’’ then said ‘‘Do not speak to me like I’m stupid or beneath you in any way. I don’t care to speak to you anymore.’’
