Nicki Minaj Performing in NFL Super Bowl?
Barbz are surprised as much as the general public by Nicki Minaj's sudden release of "Queen Radio: Volume 1," because of this, some fans are speculating if this might be an indication of her possible performance at the NFL Super Bowl Halftime show.
A hip-hop performance from a rap royalty like Minaj would not be far-fetched, especially with the hip-hop giants (Eminem, Snoop Dogg, Dr. Dre, May J. Blige, and Kendrick Lamar) who performed recently.
When a netizen asked to be given context, a fan pointed out a similar move that The Weeknd did before his Super Bowl Performance - he released "The Highlights."
Currently, Nicki Minaj's Super Bowl performance remains speculation just because of the coincidence.
As of this writing, Nicki Minaj has neither denied nor confirmed the claims.
