Nicki Minaj took to Instagram Live before her Wireless Festival performance and accidentally led fans to believe she was pregnant.

When a fan asked if she was pregnant the 39-year-old New York native accidentally replied, ‘I’m not fat, guys, I’m pregnant. Sorry.’

But she meant to say the opposite – and she corrected the statement shortly thereafter.

She quickly about-faced as she said, ‘Oh wait. Did I say it wrong? I’m sorry. I think I said it wrong. I meant to say, I’m not pregnant. I’m fat.’

During the virtual chat with her supporters, who are dubbed ‘The Barbz,’ Nicki sported a blonde and red wig with a side part.

The entertainer wore a black shirt and smiled throughout the live social media session.

Nicki currently only has one child, a son with husband Kenneth Perry, who she married in 2019.

The child was born in September 2020, and the star has yet to reveal the tot’s name.

However, she isn’t shy about posting him on social media and lovingly referring to him as Papa Bear.

She most recently posted the little one just last week, sharing photos of him, her husband, and herself.

The family of four posed outside in front of a mansion with a pink luxury car parked in the driveway in one photo.

In a second image she showed just her son and husband, with the youngster adorably perched on his dad’s shoulders.

Minaj also took to Instagram to share some photos with her massive following of 197 million over the weekend.

She was preparing to take a flight as she posted a video outside the aircraft, and later inside it.

She sported flaming red hair with a blonde bang and wore an all black outfit.

The lyricist wrote in a caption, ‘I’m in the UKAAAAYYYYY. Just touch down in ah di G5. You know I’m buzzin like a [bee] hive.’

Before her London performance Nicki graced the stage in New Orleans at the 2022 Essence Festival of Culture.

The hitmaker rocked a platinum blonde ponytail perched atop her head that flowed down her back.

She was clad in a black top with matching figure-hugging skinny pants as she performed her hits.

Nicki adorned the look with a chain link accessory that was draped from her neck to her waist.
