Don Lemon clapped back hard after that rapper came for him. He posted a lengthy Instagram video directly addressing Nicki Minaj following her critical social media post. Lemon called her earlier remarks homophobic and unhinged, stating she was out of her depth on the issue involving a Minnesota church protest.
He made several personal allegations against the musician during the emotional rant. Lemon claimed Minaj does not care about African Americans and questioned her citizenship status. He suggested she could face deportation under certain immigration policies, referencing family members' reported legal histories.
These claims remain unsubstantiated by any court proceedings. Lemon presented no evidence, framing his statements as personal commentary. He labeled Minaj a pick me and urged Black and gay communities to stop supporting her music.
The journalist ended the video saying he would not engage further. Minaj has not publicly responded to this specific video post. The conflict evolved from a debate over protest coverage into intense personal warfare.
