Nicki Minaj’s Daily Mail TV Host Beef Stems From “Sex Offender” Remarks

Young Money’s Nicki Minaj didn’t just randomly go after Daily Mail TV host Jesse Palmer. New reports claim the hip-hop star’s issues with the entertainment personality stems from sex offender comments he made during a national broadcast.

According to reports, Palmer directly went at Nicki by bringing up her convicted brother.

In talking about Minaj’s new relationship with boyfriend Kenneth Petty — a sex offender– Palmer said Nicki’s fans “are also worried because this isn’t the first time Nicki Minaj has defended a sex offender.” Palmer then claimed Nicki has supported her brother, Jelani Maraj, who was found guilty of raping his 11-year-old stepdaughter. Here’s the thing — Nicki never had her brother’s back … she was only making a trip to visit him in jail to help support her mother. Maraj has still not been sentenced for the rape. (TMZ)

Yesterday, Nicki went all-out with some explosive threats fired at Palmer and said he could expect a hefty lawsuit.
