Don Lemon is not holding back when it comes to Nicki Minaj.

As reported, Minaj fired off a profane post on X (formerly known as Twitter) against Lemon over his stance on ICE, saying:
“DON ‘C*CK SUCKIN’ LEMON IS DISGUSTING. HOW DARE YOU?I WANT THAT THUG IN JAIL!!!!! HE WOULD NEVER DO THAT TO ANY OTHER RELIGION. LOCK HIM UP!!!!!”
Don wasted no time responding, taking to his personal Instagram and ‘TMZ’ (as seen above) to brand the rapper “ignorant” and “bigoted” while urging her to “sit the f*** down” and “grow some brains.”
He also took aim at her recent political stance, calling her a “pick me” amid her public support of MAGA figures.
Adding fuel to the fire, Lemon mentioned Minaj’s husband Kenneth Petty and questioned her motives, suggesting Petty’s reported criminal history of sexual violence is why she may be aligning herself with Trump for protection and pardons.
Minaj has not yet responded at the time of writing.
Don kills me. Sir, you cannot come for anybody saying they don’t like African Americans when have made many disparaging remarks about your people. The internet is a thing. Your old clips are still out there. I will never like this man.
Pick me ass birds flocking together to defend Covicki instead of ruffling each other’s feathers, now that’s news
