Monday night, fans tuned in, whether by streaming or updates via Twitter posts, to see the who’s who of Hollywood walk the red carpet at the 2021 Met Gala. But, like many other significant events, the annual fundraising gala altered its traditional presentation to ensure everyone’s safety during the ongoing coronavirus pandemic—requiring that all attendees be vaccinated against the deadly virus.
The usual suspects were in attendance, including Rihanna, Yara Shahidi, and some new, like co-host Keke Palmer. However, fans quickly noticed rapper Nicki Minaj was missing in action. The “Anaconda” emcee last attended the event in 2019 wearing a pink Gurung gown inspired by King Louis XIV. However, this year, she informed fans she’d be skipping out because she was hesitant about getting the vaccine, citing her need to do more research.
They want you to get vaccinated for the Met,” she wrote. “If I get vaccinated it won’t for the Met. It’ll be once I feel I’ve done enough research. I’m working on that now. In the meantime my loves, be safe. Wear the mask with 2 strings that grips your head & face. Not that loose one 🙏❤️.”

His friend was weeks away from getting married, now the girl called off the wedding. So, just pray on it & make sure you’re comfortable with ur decision, not bullied.”

— Nicki Minaj (@NICKIMINAJ) September 13, 2021 The Grammy winner’s post quickly garnered backlash from fans and celebrity peers alike, including at least one who pointed out that Trinidad mostly uses the Chinese vaccine Sinopharm. Author Kurt Eichenwald, who wrote, “Sorry, this is not a side effect of the vaccine. It is called hydrocele.” He added, “In adults, the two primary causes are injury or STD (chlamydia or gonorrhea). Probably your cousin’s friend was taking one last marriage fling, picked up an STD, & is blaming vaccines. He needs an MD, stat.”

— Meghan McCain (@MeghanMcCain) September 13, 2021 MSNBC national correspondent Joy Ann Reid scolded Nicki during an episode of her show “The Reid Out,” telling the star, “For you to use your platform to encourage our community to not protect themselves and save their lives… As a fan, I am so sad that you did that.”
Nicki addressed both women, calling Joy a “lying homophobic coon” and decided to “join in the reindeer games too right.” She added, “Ppl can go on tv & lie on me, I can report on them, too right?☺️ . Doesn’t have to be truths. It can be half truths. Uncle Tomiana asked who on earth would trust the US FDA guys.” Nicki also attached a vintage post from Joy, who initially voiced concerns about CDC’s protocols during the Trump administration. However, Joy has since been vaccinated and has implored her fans to do the same.
A lying homophobic coon
I guess I can join in the reindeer games too right? Ppl can go on tv & lie on me, I can report on them, too right? ☺️. Doesn’t have to be truths. It can be half truths.

She ‘gets’ what, exactly?
She can be against the vaccine if she wants, but for good reasons.
Mentioning anecdotal and nonscientific ‘evidence’ of the vaccine causing ‘swollen testicles’ is kind of ridiculous.
Nicki who?...Nicki Massage? I’ll take a dozen, plus one.
Just because Meghan’s testicles did not swell after being vaccinated doesn’t mean it can’t happen.
Libs are very tolerant to people they agree with.
Joy Reid and Megan McCain cause shrunken testicles.
I love seeing Meghan getting mad.
If she gets the vaccine it will be her choice. That's a good enough reason.
"Mentioning anecdotal and nonscientific ‘evidence’ of the vaccine causing ‘swollen testicles’ is kind of ridiculous".
The "vaccine" is known to cause Myocarditis and pericarditis. This is inflammation of the heart muscle, and inflammation of the outer lining of the heart.
Had there been long term studies of the "vaccine" perhaps a side effect might be discovered that is inflammation of the testicles or swollen testicles.
But yeah, it's about the choice.
Is the term “Inflated Balls” trending on Twitter yet?
looks like it’s about to bite into a pig head, there’s a snout in it’s hand...
That sounds more dignified than ‘Inflated Balls’.
Spike proteins love ovaries, testicles and blood vessels.
