The American rap icon was expected at 8:30 p.m. for his show in front of a packed Bell Center, but finally arrived well after 11 p.m.
In a post on X, Nicki Minaj explained that the delay was caused by delays with her private plane.
Several Internet users deplored the situation on social networks.
“I always wanted to see you and I bought tickets even though I had an exam early in the morning. Arriving three hours late and pretending that everything is correct is disrespectful,” commented one Internet user, who had to leave before the arrival of the star.
Another spectator shared images of the waiting crowd.
Despite everything, many fans shared their love for the rapper and their appreciation of the show on social media.
After the evening, Nicki Minaj also wanted to thank the spectators for this “dream come true”.
Wednesday was not the first time that the rapper took the stage a few hours late. Recently, she introduced herself to her fans more than two hours after the time indicated on his tickets in Seattle, on the American West Coast, but also in Milwaukee and Boston.
She was also forced to cancel, at the last minute, her concert planned in New Orleans on March 18, the seventh date of her Pink Friday 2 tour, on doctor’s orders. The singer then indicated that she was fighting the flu.
