Nicki Minaj did not attend the 2021 Met Gala because she did not want to get vaccinated.
They want you to get vaccinated for the Met. if I get vaccinated it won’t for the Met. It’ll be once I feel I’ve done enough research. I’m working on that now. In the meantime my loves, be safe. Wear the mask with 2 strings that grips your head & face. Not that loose one ???

While sharing her decision and encouraging others to make decisions for themselves would’ve been a great message, unfortunately Nicki used the opportunity to promote COVID misinformation.
My cousin in Trinidad won’t get the vaccine cuz his friend got it & became impotent. His testicles became swollen. His friend was weeks away from getting married, now the girl called off the wedding. So just pray on it & make sure you’re comfortable with ur decision, not bullied

A friend of a cousin in Trinidad allegedly got swollen testicles and his fiancée left him all because of the vaccine? Considering ALL of that is unverified, that’s a very dangerous message to spread. But we digress…
Nicki continued to tweet and retweet varying views of vaccinations, only to ultimately confirm that she will be vaccinated.
I know babe. A lot of countries won’t let ppl work w/o the vaccine. I’d def recommend they get the vaccine. They have to feed their families. I’m sure I’ll b vaccinated as well cuz I have to go on tour, etc. https://t.co/7SK5Df0yBf

Let’s be clear — if you do some quick research, you’ll find that neither the Moderna nor Pfizer nor J&J vaccines cause swollen testicles. You know what can cause impotence and testicle issues? COVID-19.
