From Queen of Pop Madonna to Dionne Warwick, Beyonce, Lil Nas X, Ariana Grande, Billie Eilish, and many more, Nicki Minaj is no stranger naming her industry peers as fans.
The latest icon to pencil her name on the growing pages of the Rap Queen’s admirers is the Vocal Bible Brandy.
Easily one of the most revered vocalists in modern music herself, B-Rocka had no problem detailing how she ‘fan girled’ when she met Nicki for the first time.
Look inside to see her recount the cute encounter.
While taking to Instagram Live recently to chat with longtime friend/actor Andra Fuller, Bran relived the moment she met Nicki in-person.
“The dressing room door opens, so me and Brandy walk in the dressing room,” Fuller began. “Nobody’s in the dressing room except me, Brandy, Puffy, Nas, and…Nicki Minaj.”
Finishing the story, she recounted:
“I saw Nick Minaj—My fangirl is, my swag is not…it goes away when I am invested in a certain…I don’t want to say…a certain artist. And I love Nicki Minaj, so I lost it when I saw her. “She was like, ‘You okay?’ I was like, ‘No. I’m not okay,'” Brandy joked.
