Ice Spice has shared details about the moment she first met her idol, Nicki Minaj — and it was apparently a real tear-jerker.
During a recent in-depth interview with Apple Music’s Zane Lowe, the Bronx native detailed her emotional first encounter with Nicki Minaj — a moment she said she manifested — revealing that despite trying to play it cool, she had the jitters.
“I was, like, nervous to get there,” Ice Spice recalled. “Once I got there, I was like, ‘Okay, I’m chilling.’ But then I heard her, like, say something, and then I got nervous. “When she hugged me, I started crying…
I cried, but I walked away. Like, I didn’t say anything to her. I just feel like, ‘Bro, like just the journey.’ You know, I love Nicki, and meeting her was great and everything, but for me, it also just mostly felt like, ‘This is a full circle moment.’ The pair have since collaborated on two of this summer’s biggest songs, “Princess Diana (Remix)” and “Barbie World” from the Barbie movie soundtrack.
