Nicki Minaj brought her Pink Friday 2 World Tour to an electrifying end on Friday, October 11, in Elmont, New York. The final show featured special appearances by Sexyy Red and 50 Cent, who joined Minaj on stage to close out one of the most successful hip-hop tours of all time. 50 Cent had been a regular guest throughout the tour, while Sexyy Red made a special appearance for the finale. The crowd responded with excitement, and the performances were a fitting end to the tour’s historic run.
Although the Pink Friday 2 World Tour was a major success, it wasn’t without some controversy. At one point, Minaj’s ex, Safaree, attended one of her shows, which reportedly didn’t sit well with her. Minaj responded indirectly through Stationhead, saying, “When you’re at peace and when you’re happy, so many things will start coming to try to steal your joy and peace… Please don’t let it.”
Sexyy Red and 50 Cent’s appearances were particularly fitting, as both artists have recently collaborated with Minaj as part of her Pink Friday 2 era. Despite ongoing personal issues, including an alleged assault case involving Minaj and her husband, Kenneth Petty, the tour remained uninterrupted, and her fanbase, the Barbz, continued their unwavering support.
Additionally, Minaj has been involved in other industry disputes, including denying claims that she hired Kelsey Harris, Megan Thee Stallion’s former friend, to promote her sneaker line. Despite these challenges, the Pink Friday 2 World Tour was a major highlight for Minaj’s career, and fans eagerly await her next moves.
