Nicki Minaj has proudly revealed her ‘new boobs’ after previously teasing breast reduction surgery.
The 40-year-old rapper – who was recently the victim of two swatting attempts in 24 hours – took to Instagram on Monday to share a selfie video of herself in different outfits as she showcased her chest.
Many in her diehard fanbase had wondered if she finally went through with the breast reduction surgery she had previously discussed as the star seemingly confirmed it in a comment she left on the post which read: ‘New boobs who dis?’
The selfie video was posted to promote her highly-anticipated song Barbie World from the upcoming Barbie movie in which she is collaborating with Ice Spice.
She captioned the clip: ‘It’s BARBIE B!CH If you still in DOUBT [pink ribbon emoji] #BarbieWorld JUNE 23rd [pink ribbon emoji] PRE-SAVE NOW ‼️‼️‼️‼️’
The social media post comes after a May 2022 Instagram Live in which the Starships hitmaker expressed her interest in breast reduction surgery.
At the time she said: ‘I’m not gonna lie, somebody did tell me to get my boobs taken off, like a female in the industry.
‘And I was like, “No, no, not yet, not yet.” And yeah, she was right. I should’ve hurried up and took them off.’
It has not been an easy time in the rap star’s life as she recently was a victim of what law enforcement refers to as ‘swatting.’
The hitmaker, who is being sued for allegedly damaging borrowed jewelry, received a visit from investigators earlier this month at her Los Angeles mansion after a report Nicki’s almost three-year-old son was being abused.
According to TMZ, officers from the LA Sheriff’s Department arrived about 6 p.m. and visited with the Good Form artist and her husband, Kenneth Petty, 51.
After examining the boy, they determined the toddler was safe.
Nicki has shared a few photos of her son, whom she refers to as Papa Bear, with her fans, but keeps him out of the public eye.

She and her husband have not yet revealed his name.
The family was awakened around 3 a.m. that night after a call was made to 911, reporting a fire at the home.
When firefighters arrived, they found no flames.
It was quickly determined that the couple had been victims of ‘swatting.’
It’s a term law enforcement officials use to describe an act of making a false report in order to get a huge police reaction, that can involve an armed SWAT team.
Making a false 911 call is illegal, and in California, can result in felony or misdemeanor charges, resulting in fines and jail time.
The number of swatting cases has jumped from 400 cases in 2011 to more than 1,000 in 2019, according to estimates by former FBI agent Kevin Kolbye.
The numbers could be higher, as the FBI does not track the cases, and many police departments don’t distinguish between actual calls for help and false reports.
