"We Love You Nicki" has been trending on X ever since Nicki Minaj posted a cryptic video of herself on Instagram.

In the now-expired video, Minaj talked about the time she gave birth to her son, whom she has since called "Papa Bear" in September 2020.

"And then one day, they're yelling 'push' and you're in pain," Minaj recalled. "Then one day, he comes out a beautiful baby boy. To God be the glory. Congratulations to every mama out there. You're doing a great job. In case no one's told you that, you're doing a great job."

Some already described the video as worrying, but fans were sent into a frenzy when she took to X to tweet, "Yes Single ..." As of this writing, Minaj has not yet specified what she meant by that tweet.

Fans have since been decoding whether she meant that a new single is coming soon or that she's already single, presumably from a divorce from her husband, Kenneth Petty.

Minaj has experienced significant backlash since marrying Petty in 2019. Infamously, Petty was convicted of first-degree attempted rape in 1995. He has since served four years in prison and was required to register as a sex offender upon release.

In 2006, Petty was convicted of first-degree manslaughter, for which he served an additional six years and eleven months in prison.

Since then, Minaj has been in a tussle with the public about her decision to marry Petty, whose legal scandals also roped her huge name.

Her ever-loyal fans expressed their worry and support for her on social media, prompting the hashtag #WeLoveYouNicki to trend worldwide.

"She's more than just an artist. She played a huge part in our childhoods. She motivated & supported us in unimaginable ways. We'll always stand by her side," a fan posted.

"Dear God, protect Onika from all the evil in the world. I pray that you continue to guide her. Surround her with genuine and supportive people who will uplift and encourage her. Bless her with good health, happiness, and continued success. Amen," another wrote.

"@NICKIMINAJ, whatever you're going through, the Barbz are here for you. We've seen you through the good and bad times and we'll keep holding you down, you'll win again and again," a fan reassured.
