Celebrity Nicki Minaj was traveling from the Netherlands to the U.K. for the next leg of her Pink Friday 2 World Tour when she was arrested at Schiphol airport on suspicion of exporting soft drugs. She was briefly detained and later released, but the delay made her miss her performance at Manchester. Many UK and web fans who traveled from Europe responded to the cancellation on social media.
Some web fans who had traveled to Manchester to watch the rapper were disappointed and took to social media, expressing both dismay for the cancellation and sympathy for the rapper. Some blamed the rapper for not leaving earlier to avoid last-minute hitches, while others sympathized with her and said it was not her fault.
Many web fans felt that the Co-op Live arena in Manchester could have informed them about the cancelation earlier than they did. However, Live Nation later apologized for the inconvenience and said that tickets would remain valid for a rescheduled concert.

A translated post on X police officers in the Netherlands said that an American was fined and allowed to “continue her journey.” They refused to confirm that the detained person was celebrity rapper Nicki Minaj. However, a spokesperson said that police had “arrested a 41-year-old American woman at Schiphol Airport because of possession of soft drugs.”
Early Sunday, rapper Nicki Minaj posted about her experience and asked her web fans to accept her “deepest & most sincere apologies” and more. She said she would “make up the date with the performance” and “create an added bonus for everyone with a ticket for this show. Promise.”
She had also posted several times on social media on Saturday and provided numerous details about the incident. She said that they “found weed” and that her security told them that “those pre-rolls belong to him” and more.
Nicki Minaj will perform her second show in Manchester on Thursday and perform in Birmingham on Sunday.
