Nikki Minaj was shocked when she tried to get in with her friends to her own album release party in NY on Tuesday night.
The 29-year-old singer was scheduled to attend the event but was denied entry from Greenhouse club when she rolled up with her boyfriend and a hefty entourage of 25 people at 3:30 a.m. Incidentally, the downtown hot spot is also owned by the same folks who run WIP, the club of choice for Drake-Chris Brown brawls.
“The cops denied [Minaj] access saying the venue was capacity,” the insider said. “She tried to celebrate with fans but was turned away at the door.”
Minaj released “The Re-Up,” a re-release of her second album “Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded,” on Nov. 19. “It’s a little of a different direction from the mainstream, but it’s kind of more in the direction I originally started in,” she told Ryan Seacrest about the album on Monday. “I feel like the music is such a better representation of me where I am now as an artist in my career.” Huffington Post reported.
The NY Daily News is reporting a whole different story. According to them, Safaree was the diva and arrived at the venue with 30 guys and no girls. According to their source, he was demanding to come in and threatening that if they didn’t oblige, he would tell Nicki not to come to the club. Safaree was reportedly let inside with only three people from his entourage and was not happy about it.
“He wouldn’t stop complaining, he wanted more people to come in… then left the club and never returned. At that point, it was evident he told [Minaj] not to come, though he told everyone else that she was on her way.”
