The voice inside Nicki Minaj’s head told her to delete her twitter account

Nicki Minaj received a bunch of attention last week when she abruptly deleted her Twitter account after getting pissed at one of her fan websites for posting a leaked song or something (yeah, roll call for who downloaded her album over a week before it came out in stores…). Conveniently enough, she did this as she’s promoting her new album.

Throughout the innanet, I observed people arguing that she alienated her 11 million plus twitter fan base by doing this, but isn’t a fan base supposed to buy her album? With first week sales at 253, 000, that is approximately 2.3% of her twitter followers shelling out $10 or whatever for the record. Some fan base.

As told to Graham Norton, here’s the reason she deleted her account:

A voice in my head told me to delete my Twitter and that’s what I did. I had 11 million followers and I hope they will wait for me.

Le sigh. Nicki, Nicki, Nicki (2 Chainz voice). Actually, I always commend people who don’t have twitter. I automatically assume they have their shit together more than me.

Rap-Up
