Nicki Minaj is getting plenty of attention these days, but it’s not for one of her usual racy ensembles.
The 34-year-old American rapper released a new music video titled “No Frauds” where she’s seen on England’s Westminster Bridge.
NICKI MINAJ KIND OF, MAYBE SORRY FOR MELANIA DISS
The Sun reported that the video was filmed the day before the terror attack at the site on March 22. Ahead of the video's release, a source said that the footage of the bridge wouldn’t make the final cut out of respect for the victims.
“When everybody involved in the project heard the news they were devastated and thought it would be in bad taste to feature it,” said the source to the UK-based publication. “The other London scenes will remain, but it’s highly doubtful the bridge footage will make the cut.”
However, when Minaj unveiled the video on Wednesday, the scenes had been included.
She told Vevo it was “the best video” she’s ever released.
