Nicki Minaj criticized Don Lemon for his reporting on a Minnesota church protest.
Nicki Minaj publicly criticized independent journalist Don Lemon over the weekend, responding angrily to his reporting on a protest during a church service in Minnesota. Rapper blasted Lemon, who is gay and married to real estate agent Tim Malone, in 2024, as reported by TMZ.
Nicki Minaj calls out Don Lemon on social media
In a series of posts on X on Sunday, Minaj wrote, “DON '**** SUCKIN' LEMON IS DISGUSTING,” in all caps. She continued, "HOW DARE YOU? I WANT THAT THUG IN JAIL!!!!! HE WOULD NEVER DO THAT TO ANY OTHER RELIGION. LOCK HIM UP!!!!!" as per the outlet.
Minaj's social media outburst at Lemon came after the former CNN anchor livestreamed from Cities church in St. Paul, Minnesota, where a group of demonstrators interrupted a Sunday service to protest the presence of Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents in the state. Several media outlets reported that the pastor of the church has alleged ties to ICE, as per TMZ.
During the protest, demonstrators demanded that immigration agents leave the area and called for justice for Renee Nicole Good, who was shot and killed earlier this month by an ICE agent during a federal enforcement operation.

Don Lemon responds to Nicki Minaj's comments
In response to Nicki Minaj's heated remarks, Lemon told TMZ, “I’m not surprised Nicki Minaj does not understand journalism and is weighing in on matters that are above her capacity.” He added, “However, the more appropriate image for her post is a 'Pick Me' Doll.” The term refers to a person who is overcompensating and needs validation.
President Trump's White House Secretary, Karoline Leavitt, has also joined the conversation. She said that the commander in chief "will not tolerate the intimidation and harassment of Christians in their sacred places of worship." She stated that the Department of Justice has opened a full investigation into what she called this “despicable incident”.

“DON ‘**** SUCKIN’ LEMON IS DISGUSTING”.
Homophobic slur my az, it’s a statement of freaking fact!
I thought at first the article was talking about the one that rhymes with maggot.
Nikki may be a ‘ho ... but she’s spot on correct here.
Are you suggesting that he’s a British cigarette?
She did not say he would be “pullin’ the train” in prison. But everyone knows he would.
Lol! Yup.
“Phobic”…
Chuckle.
Not even close.
The use of “phobic” identifies the writer as one who is ignorant of the language and logic. As such, they can only find employment in organizations without any discernible qualities: The DemocRAT party, woke ‘kolleges’, the media, and Hollywood.
Lemmon should wear the title proudly like a "Got Milk" mustache.
It’s a lesson. See kids? Don’t be a narcissistic homosexual.
Or you’ll end up like Don Lemon
I’m not surprised Lemon knows all about Pick Me dolls.
Exactly.
Is it an insult to call a woman a rooster-sucker? Not really.
“””Are you suggesting that he’s a British cigarette?”””
He’s a bundle of sticks bound together.
She is factually quite correct.
The left got away with hijacking the language again. Phobia is a irrational fear of something. We are not afraid of them. Disgusted or repulsed maybe but do not have an irrational fear of them.
Or did he somehow get a heads-up about it? Perhaps organize or orchestrate it?
If only I was a journalist.
She was factually accurate.
Hah!...Sounds better when she says it!
The laddy doth project too much, methinks.
