Music superstar, Nicki Minaj has informed her fans of her inability to perform at the Chicago Jingle Ball.
She explained that due to the release of her upcoming album, she wouldn’t be available for the event.
Minaj canceled her headlining slot at the December 4 concert, citing her upcoming album release as the reason.
“I won’t be able to perform tmrw in Chicago for Jingle Ball,” wrote Minaj. “I was excited to see you guys. Pls accept my sincerest apologies. I’ll make it up to you on the Chicago stops of my tour early next year. Details to come. I hope it doesn’t make you sad”, she announced on her X page (formerly Twitter).
She then presented the backup plan: “HOWEVER!!!!! My beloved brother/boss stepped up for me so that I wouldn’t have to push my album back. His name is Lil Wayne AKA the GOAT. He would perform tmrw @ the Chicago show,” she revealed.
