Who is Kate Miller? Nicki Minaj shuts down FAKE assistant who claimed rapper owes IRS $173M
Nicki Minaj has been trending on social media after an Instagram user named Kate Miller, who claimed to be the rapper’s ‘ex-assistant,’ made some huge claims about the 39-year-old. However, Nicki went live on Instagram on August 2 to clear the air where she called the claims “dumb.”
The drama started when the alleged ex-assistant started posting a series of screenshots on Instagram story, from account @katemiller_7, which has been taken down, had over 20 stories in total. It claimed, "I am Onika ex assistant who she fired who for absolutely no proof of fraud with her bank account. I’m exposing all files I have from working for her. Along with the voice messages she sent me regarding many different people not just Cardi B," the first one read. The second one even tagged Nicki that said, “Let’s talk about you sending Robert Sammuels $75,000 for Freaky Girl “abundance” on the charts. But you’re fans love dissing “payola” You won’t sue and you know why. I have it all on video. For example, when Kenneth pushed you off that lodge. Meek isn’t the only abuser.” Another read, “I have your tax refunds from 2021. When are we gonna tell the barbz you’ve owed the IRS 173 million since 2016? renting homes is always the go to for the Minaj residence.” One of the claims was towards her husband that said, "The things that your husband said to me when you weren’t around still gives me chills and as a woman I’m going to deal with that on my own time but you both are sick and meant for each other.”
