Like, you could tell she couldn't wait to try to move on with her life, and then people even bashed her for not dragging it out, not milking it [...]" Minaj continued.

Minaj is referring to how Megan Thee Stallion's 2020 incident was still being talked about in 2023 and how it became a longstanding topic about her and her music for so long.

"She was just like, 'Yo, I was mad young. We were young. I'm just trying to move on with my life now.' You know why? Because Rihanna knows that she was a superstar with or without controversy. She's beautiful with or without controversy. She's loved with or without controversy, I'm sorry, sympathy," she added.
