Nicki Minaj is facing the scorn of her fanbase after failing to rise to the occasion in her latest show in Dublin.
Being able to see one of your fave music stars is always a dream. You hope they perform some of your favorite songs, command the stage and overall give a memorable performance.
I’m sure in your dizziest daydreams you might hope they call you out of the crowd on to the stage to sing your heart out with them.
Well, people who were hoping to see Nicki Minaj bring the house down in Malahide Castle, Ireland last night as part of her ‘Pink Friday 2 World Tour’ were left pretty p***ed off.

The star reportedly showed up close to 2 hours late and performed for under an hour.
Fans simply weren't having it and took to social media to condemn the performance with some even going as far to say they are never going to any of her concerts again as it was a ‘disaster’. Ouch.
Before Minaj took to the stage, one frustrated fan wrote on Twitter: “@NICKIMINAJ any chance you could make an appearance on stage in Dublin? 45 mins left till closing ?!?!? What a joke,”
“Nicki Minaj aint even show up to her own show in dublin ireland im cracking the f*** up,” another wrote, sharing an image of the empty stage.
Other fans were less amused with many emphasizing how angry they were.
“I hope people at Nicki Minaj tonight at Dublin will be getting a refund Nicki Minaj should be ashamed of her self coming on just before 10pm and hour and a half late sings twice and goes of to change with 15 min left before curfew no respect for fans,” one annoyed fan wrote.
“Nicki Minaj hours late to her own show in Dublin/Ireland 🇮🇪 then after 5 minutes storms off stage because her own DJ plays the wrong setlist. Thousands of people let down once again by the Artist herself, shameful & disgraceful,”
While many fans took their frustrations out on Minaj, others came for Ticketmaster or MCD Productions, who were promoting the event.
Writing on social media before the show they posted on Twitter: Enjoy the concert today. Nicki Minaj’s set is due to start at 8.20pm. The licensed curfew is 10:30pm. Please use public transport if possible."
So, the late start anger definitely makes sense. Minaj has not commented on the backlash or late start on her social media.
UNILAD has contacted Nicki Minaj’s representatives for comment.
