Nicki Minaj was arrested for banned substances before the concert, the audience was upset, demanding to pay for the tickets

Recently, the Dutch national police agency announced the above case of arrest on suspicion of transporting banned substances.

"We have just released a 41-year-old American woman. We arrested her this afternoon in Schiphol on suspicion of exporting banned substances. After consulting with the prosecution, the suspect was fined and can continue his journey," police wrote.

Dutch police did not identify the suspect or the amount of the fine, but everyone knows that the "41-year-old American woman" is famous female rapper Nicki Minaj because the owner live-streamed the entire incident on Instagram Live.

During the broadcast, Minaj explained police told her that a bag of a banned substance was found in her bag and it had to be weighed. At that time, she was traveling from Amsterdam (Netherlands) to Manchester (England) as part of her Pink Friday 2 world tour.

Although she vehemently denied transporting banned substances, the female rapper was still escorted to the police station by the police. The owner of the hit Anaconda expressed frustration because he was put in a police truck and "entered an area without a lawyer present".

She also accused someone working for airport security of asking her to give a statement without a lawyer present after finding unauthorized rolls of paper in her bag.

Before being arrested, Minaj posted a series of posts on X about her luggage being searched at the airport. She criticized the authorities for taking her luggage without her consent. The 8X beauty even raised a conspiracy theory that someone put banned substances in her luggage to disrupt the tour.

"They were paid huge amounts of money to try to sabotage my tour because so many people are mad that it was so successful," she alleged.

In another post, she explained that she recently fired her personal management team for charging an extra $30,000-$50,000 for her private flights, thereby pocketing the extra money.

The short-term arrest led to the postponement of the show on the evening of May 25 in the UK. The announcement from the representative of Live Arena, where the concert was held, did not reveal when Minaj would return to perform.

Minaj was scheduled to go on stage at 6:30 p.m. on May 25, then it was pushed back to 7:00 p.m. before being rescheduled. Video from the scene showed supporters lining up a few hours before the show, chanting "Free Nicki Minaj" and holding out hope that the star would make it to the show. Nearly every seat in the arena was full. However, they were ultimately disappointed when the organizers made the final announcement. Many people objected to this decision.

Footage recorded inside the Co-op Live Arena, the UK's largest indoor arena with a capacity of 23,500, shows thousands of fans patiently waiting for their idol to arrive. When the announcement was made, there were many boos and disappointments. Others asked the Organizing Committee to have an appropriate compensation policy for this incident. Currently, solution plans will continue to be announced in the near future.

After arriving in Manchester, the female rapper thanked her fans for their words of encouragement and apologized for not being able to perform on time. "Please accept my deepest and most sincere apologies.

They certainly knew exactly how to hurt me today but this too shall pass. They've done this over and over again and I've tried so hard not to discuss it because you guys deserve good things. I hate to drag you into anything that isn't for entertainment purposes," the music star emphasized.

She promised to compensate fans with another performance, along with additional gifts. According to Minaj, the specific time has not been determined, but she and her team are discussing plans for June and July.

At the end of the letter, rapper Bang Bang confirmed that the second show in Manchester on May 30 will still take place on schedule.
