"Could you guess who she works for?" — Nicki Minaj comments on fired assistant

On September 19, 2024, Nicki Minaj took to X to complain about an employee and raised concern over privacy breach. Talking about a food delivery, the rapper mentioned that the person who ordered it didn't ensure that Minaj's name remained anonymous. This resulted in the restaurant sending a message to her on the delivery bag. Expressing her discontent, the rapper tweeted:

"Thank God I don’t eat the food in this place. Imagine seeing this written on a brown paper bag. Why would a person placing an order say who it’s for? Odd? Or?"

One of her fans suggested her to re-evaluate her team, to which Minaj responded by saying:

"Oh she was fired last leg but was mysteriously hired again! Hmmmm could you guess who she works for?"

Minaj added that she wasn't aware that the employee had still been hired until the incident. Fans speculated that Minaj was seemingly taking a dig at Cardi B again, however, neither of the rappers reacted to it.
