Nicki Minaj threatens to fire tour DJ for signing fan’s chest following Amsterdam arrest



Nicki Minaj threatened to fire her “Pink Friday 2” world tour DJ for signing a fan’s chest.

The rapper, 41, took to X (formerly known as Twitter) to seemingly slam DJ Boof after he boasted about his celebrity status — all because a fan asked him to sign her breasts.

“I promise I’ll fire him if I EVAHHHHH see this again. Df,” Minaj — whose real name is Onika Tanya Maraj-Petty — shared.

She also retweeted the picture that showed a grinning Boof signing a fan’s chest with a marker.

“I’m really famous,” he wrote alongside the snap with a laughing emoji. “They asked me to sign their boobs.”

Despite her threat, many fans pointed out that Minaj also often signs her fans on their chests.

“he’s tryna steal your job ????,” one fan wrote, with another adding, “He wanna be Nicki so bad????.”

Page Six did not immediately receive a response from reps for Minaj or DJ Booth.

However, Boof — whose real name is Clyde Joseph Jr. — seemingly backtracked about wanting fame when he wrote via Instagram Stories Monday, “Growing up I used to want to be famous but we all know you can be famously broke.”

Boof first rose to fame as the DJ for “The Wendy Show.”

The “Super Bass” hitmaker’s warning came after she was briefly arrested on Saturday by Dutch authorities at Amsterdam Schiphol Airport and fined for allegedly “carrying drugs.”

She documented much of her arrest on Instagram, which included a video that showed officers informing her all her bags needed to be thoroughly searched because they found drugs and were suspicious that she had more.

Minaj could be heard protesting and saying everything was a misunderstanding. She also claimed via X that the drugs found belonged to her security.

In another series of tweets, the Grammy nominee claimed her former team — whom she allegedly fired for stealing thousands of dollars — was trying to delay her flight to Manchester, England.

Because of her arrest, Minaj was forced to cancel her Saturday concert.

“Despite Nicki’s best efforts to explore every possible avenue to make tonight’s show happen, the events of today have made it impossible,” the Co-op Live arena said in a statement.

“We are deeply disappointed by the inconvenience this has caused.”

Once released, Minaj addressed her fans who were waiting outside her Manchester hotel and personally apologized for the inconvenience.

“I love you and I’m sorry this happened tonight,” she said while rocking an all-pink outfit.

“I have sooooooooo much video evidence. You wouldn’t believe it if I told you. I’ll have the lawyers & GOD take it from here tho.”

She continued, “Please please please accept my deepest & most sincere apologies. They sure did know exactly how to hurt me today but this too, shall pass.”
