Whew! The internet was in shambles because of rumors that a fake Instagram page started about Nicki Minaj, and the mother of one seemingly responded.
Just as people were wiping the sleep from their eyes, an unknown person with a now deleted IG handle, katemiller_7, claiming to be Nicki’s ex-assistant, let out several unconfirmed accusations.
Unknown Person Makes Accusations About Nicki Minaj
Posting to IG stories, the person wrote:
I am Onika ex assistant who she fired who for absolutely no proof of fraud with her bank account.
The story continued to say,
I’m exposing all files I have from working for her. Along with the voice messages she sent regarding many different people…
The page also continued to allege that Nicki sent “$75,000” to put her upcoming single, ‘Freaky Girls,’ on the chart.
It was also alleged the rapper owed $173,000,000 to the IRS.
After the account grew to over 31,000 people and thousands of reshares across Facebook, IG, and Twitter with more unconfirmed accusations, Nicki Minaj posted a cryptic tweet and stated:

Another person added:
Okay. It’s obvious that the person exposing Nicki Minaj isn’t really her ex assistant BUT it’s someone close to her that’s doing it. So just because the page is fake, doesn’t mean the information they’re posting is.

The Profile Picture Shown On The Instagram Account
While the account appears to be named katemiller_7, the profile photo belongs to a digital marketer.
The woman pictured on the account is an author and digital strategist at a marketing and PR firm. Once the information made its rounds, the account wrote:
I am not Kate Miller. I’m staying anonymous for obvious reasons.
There have been several mock IG accounts created since the original account was deleted, and the conversation continues.
