Nicki Minaj fans have taken aim at Jess Hilarious after the radio personality raised doubts about ticket sales for the rapper’s forthcoming Pink Friday 2 Tour.
During a recent episode of “JESS WITH THE MESS: Uncut,” The Breakfast Club co-host suggested that Katt Williams might have been asked to join the tour due to low ticket sales, which sparked controversy.
“When the fuck did Nicki and Katt Williams even have a fucking relationship? To put him on your tour?” She began. “Usually, people do things like this when the tour is not selling. Maybe it isn’t. Now, that’s very expected these days because of the economy.”
She continued, “People put shit on layaway to buy RENAISSANCE tickets. The economy is in such a shit place right now, it’s totally expected to not sell out your fucking tour.”
“No icon, no matter how big or small, is exempt from promotion,” she added, questioning the lack of promotion around the concert series. “You promoted that album, you did interviews, you popped out. You promoted ‘HISS.’”
The claim came shortly after the “FTCU” rhymer announced that R&B singer Monica had joined the lineup.
Meanwhile, discussing who she believed could boost Nicki’s earnings, Hilarious looked to emerging talents like Twitch star Kai Cenat — with whom she’s already well acquainted — and others. “I think she should add a JT, a Bia. Bitch, you can bring Kai Cenat,” she concluded.

Upon hearing about the perceived insult, Nicki’s devoted fanbase flooded the comment section to passionately defend their queen.
“The tour has been sold out Ms. Mommas. Do your research first cause the lies yall tell on the breakfast club should be a crime,” wrote one user.
Nah Jess when Nicki come question you we don’t want u acting dumb like u didn’t say nothing [laughing emoji],” a second comment reads.
A third user, though unsure with she sided with Jess praised her for not shying away from having an opinion. “The best decision Breakfast Club made was Jess. Rather I agree or disagree with this lady she is unapologetically HER!! And she has an opinion and she’s stands 10 toes on it. This show needed a strong woman who wasn’t afraid to talk [clapping hands emoji,” the comment reads.
On the flip side, earlier this week, it was reported that the Pink Friday 2 Tour is already making a splash as the rapper’s best-selling trek yet.
Sharing the exciting news on her Instagram Stories on Wednesday (February 21), the Young Money hitmaker posted a screenshot of a Live Nation press release that stated: “Nicki Minaj Presents Pink Friday 2 World Tour is now her best-selling tour to date with more than 25 sold-out arena shows in just days of presale.”
It continues: “Minaj sold 30,000 tickets in her home state alone with shows in Newark, New York City and Brooklyn, where an extra show is being added.”
Below the screenshot, an exuberant Nicki wrote: “This happened within days of presale. Now we are 10 days away. So grateful. SOOOOO grateful & honored to have you in #GagCITY.”
The North American leg of the Pink Friday 2 Tour is slated to start on March 1 in Oakland, with stops in cities like Los Angeles, New Orleans, Atlanta, Philadelphia, Toronto, Chicago, and Nicki’s hometown of New York City.
Concluding on May 13 in Oklahoma City, the tour will then venture across the pond to Europe, launching just 10 days later in Amsterdam. Nicki will grace stages across the UK, France, Germany, Portugal, Italy, and more, with the tour culminating on July 12.
