Nicki Minaj Reacts To Eve’s Comments About Her In Eve’s Memoir

Recently, Eve opened up about how she faced insecurities while working with Nicki Minaj on the set of The Barbershop sequel, which garnered a response from Nicki. Eve said in her memoir, Who’s That Girl, “I’ve lived through what happens when women project their own insecurities onto other women. It happened at the start of my career and continued in waves as my fame grew. I wasn’t going to be that woman to someone else, but in order to do that, I had to physically and mentally prepare myself.” She said that she gained a lot of respect for Nicki while working with her on the movie and felt empathetic towards her. Nicki replied to the comments, “Dear Eve, the various things you’ve shared recently, are groundbreaking (in my opinion) for so many reasons. First, thank you. The level of grace; the level of emotional & spiritual maturity it takes to be this vulnerable & transparent is a sign of TRUE peace, happiness, fulfillment, & mastery of self. Self reflection @ its height. I always say that I think accountability is the sexiest trait a person can have.”

She continued, “I was so nervous coming onto that movie set every day. You looked like a pro & I admired that so much. Thank you for trying to not do to me what was done to you. Women feel so much pressure to compete, & it’s a shame b/c we usually have so much in common & could rlly benefit from one another just as human beings. We all share so many of the same experiences as artists, wives, moms, ups & downs, anxiety, etc.”
