Nicki Minaj just stepped out of a potential legal nightmare, and you won’t believe how she pulled it off. Initially facing a $500,000 judgment linked to her husband, Kenneth Petty, after an alleged assault against former bodyguard Thomas Weidenmuller, it seemed like Minaj might have to sell her Hidden Hills home to cover the costs. The stakes couldn’t have been higher, and a forced sale would have been a calamitous blow for the pop icon.
However, moments before her court hearing, Minaj’s team confirmed that the judgment had been satisfied. While it’s still unclear if she paid the full amount or settled for less, the resolution means she can keep her mansion and put this legal drama behind her. It’s a classic twist in the story of celebrity life—just when you think all is lost, they manage to come out on top. Sounds like a plot straight from one of her lyrics, doesn’t it?
