As rumours the 32-year-old rapper is getting engaged to new rapper boyfriend Meek Mill, have emerged, amid a 15-carat yellow diamond heart ring, Nicki Minaj has said \u201cnot yet\u201d but hinted it won\u2019t be long before she takes the plunge.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are not engaged yet, the ring was just a gift,\u201d she said. \u201cI wish every day could be as special as that day.\u201d<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Daily social media snaps show the couple are very much in love. Mill, 28, can\u2019t seem to take his hands off the pretty, Trinadadian-born singer and songwriter whom he\u2019s been dating since April.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Minaj was even rumoured to be pregnant when Mill said in an interview that he wished Minaj was with a child, Yahoo! News reported. But the female rapper clarified on her Twitter that she would not<\/em> be pregnant before marrying Mill.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n At 32, Minaj has always wanted a large family so it is inevitable that she will be tying the knot soon and going down the child road. She comes from a large, close-knit family herself and has always wanted to replicate this. She has two brothers whom she is very close with and regularly visits in Queens, New York.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Currently on a US tour of the fabulous Pink Print, Nicki\u2019s schedule has been a hectic one and she\u2019s sworn to take some time off come August 19th<\/sup> when she does her last gig in Canada. Although luckily for her it has not been a lonely tour as Mill has been a supporting act on Pink Print as the duo jet around the US.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n A holiday, a ring and a pregnancy?!! Nicki doesn\u2019t do things by halves so expect some juicy gossip hitting our Celebrity News pages soon.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n DOUBLE PLATINUM<\/p>\n <\/p>\n And no we\u2019re not talking about \u2018that\u2019 ring! Nicki has absolutely smashed her US record sales, getting the highest accolade, Double Platinum for more than 2 million record sales of Only <\/em>featuring Lil Wayne, Drake and Chris Brown in April this year. Last year Anaconda<\/em> was also certified Double Platinum by the RIAA.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Within a few years of her first mixtape, Playtime Is Over<\/em>, she solidly established herself in Lil Wayne\u2019s Young Money Entertainment camp and was rapping on songs alongside artists like Robin Thicke, Rihanna, Christina Aguilera and Kanye West. So let me get this straight\/ Wait, I\u2019m the rookie?\/ But my features and my shows 10 times your pay?\/ 50K for a verse\/ No album out!, she announced in her benchmark verse on West\u2019s Monster. <\/em>This woman is gutsy and not afraid to tell it like it is. Probably another reason for her unrelenting staying power. Insiders say a collaboration with Nicki is both a surefire hit and a gamble\u2014to this day, she often dwarfs the huge artist she\u2019s featured alongside.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Her rapping is also extremely distinctive for its fast flow and the use of alter egos and accents, primarily British cockney. Minaj is also widely known for her colourful costumes, wigs and jewellery. She stands out from the plethora of rappers out there today and anyone who is anyone is clawing to work with her.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n THE OTHER WOMAN<\/p>\n <\/p>\n This spring, she made her blockbuster debut alongside Cameron Diaz and Leslie Mann in the comedy flick The Other Woman<\/em>, a gig she characterises as a minor side project rather than a breakout.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019m not going to say I\u2019m not<\/em> focused on acting,\u201d she said in an interview with Fader in the US. \u201cbecause I don\u2019t want a director to read this interview and think, Oh, she\u2019s not focused on acting. But it\u2019s not exactly where my heart lies.\u201d<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Her first foray into acting was voicing the comical character Steffie in Ice Age 4: Continental Drift.<\/em><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n THE OTHER MAN<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Before meeting Mill, Nicki was dating rapper Safaree Samuels\u00a0for 12 years. Both rappers lived in New York and many believed they would walk down the aisle.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n It is widely known that Samuels has been an emotional wreck over the break-up with Nicki. He’s became a recluse, spending days and nights in smoking weed and has also talked openly about suicide.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Safaree is telling friends he won’t get in touch with Nicki because she’s now hooked up with Mill. He admits \u201cit’s torture\u201d for him, because he believes Mill destroyed his relationship with Nicki over false claims he cheated.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Safaree’s friends say they’re scared these are more than idle threats. News of the ring and a pregnancy on the way may not be exactly what Samuels wanted to hear but slowly he is trying to rebuild his life.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n According to reports last week he may be appearing in a new reality TV show on VH1 and has been getting very close to lingerie model Zashia Santiago, so hopefully Safaree is on the mend now.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n DIVERSIFYING<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Nicki is an entrepreneur at heart and like any good businesswoman she is constantly finding new ways to connect with her varied audiences, whether it\u2019s via music, campaigns for brands including Pepsi, Moscato, MAC Cosmetics and K-Mart or even producing bottles of perfume shaped like her more than ample bust! She knows how to market herself!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Nicki has been described by pals as \u201ca tough cookie\u201d, \u201csmart businesswoman\u201d and a \u201clittle bit crazy\u201d. She is definitely here to stay. From sell-out tours, to movies, to rap collaborations anything Nicki seems to touch turns to gold including our front cover.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" As rumours the 32-year-old rapper is getting engaged to new rapper boyfriend Meek Mill, have emerged, amid a 15-carat yellow diamond heart ring, Nicki Minaj has said \u201cnot yet\u201d but hinted it won\u2019t be long before she takes the plunge. \u201cWe are not engaged yet, the ring was just a gift,\u201d she said. \u201cI […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1976,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[26,1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1975","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-features","category-uncategorised"],"yoast_head":"\n
