Rah Ali claims Nicki Minaj told a YouTuber to spread lies that she stole $30 million, saying the rapper is trying to destroy her.

Rah Ali isn't letting the rumors talk for her anymore. The former Love & Hip Hop personality and Onsite Media boss posted a new video on Tuesday (October 27) about her fallout with Nicki Minaj. In it, she makes her most serious accusation yet. "Nicki Minaj instructed a YouTuber to convey lies to the public, accusing me of stealing $30 million from her," Rah says in the clip. It's a big turn for a pair that fans once saw as untouchable, and Rah says she's done staying quiet about it.

She framed the video around loyalty. "Nicki Minaj and I were friends for well over a decade," she explains. "We met around 2016. And in that time frame, I have been loyal. I've been honest, I've been trustworthy. I've not done anything at all to her." Then she gets to why she's speaking now.

"However, there comes a point where you have to say enough is enough. And that's where I am," she says. "Where I am today is I'm not gonna sit back and allow someone to intentionally try to destroy me, simply because I won't allow them to be a puppet master."

Rah Ali Says She Has Proof Nicki Minaj Wants To Ruin Her

The theft talk didn't start out anywhere near $30 million. In October 2025, Nicki said that "3 different people in a span of 2 months" had used her American Express card without permission. She put the damage at about $25K and promised, "They're all going to jail." Nicki never named Rah. Blogger Tasha K pointed fingers at a stylist and later circulated claims that tied Rah in. Within weeks, Rah fired back with an open letter: "Show the evidence or apologize instead of sensationalizing headlines." A year later, the number in the rumors has grown far past that original $25K.

On her own outlet, Onsite Media, Rah calls the newest version "complete and utter lies." She also asks how someone could steal that much money without ever being questioned, charged, or arrested.

This time, Rah says she has receipts of her own. "I have actual proof to show that Nicki's intention is to destroy anything that I'm working on, and to try to destroy the peace of mind that I have," she says.

She also says Nicki's fans have sent threats against her life and her children. When one fan thanked her for speaking up, Rah answered, "You're welcome, there are a lot of victims. Real victims." That's a hard line to read from the woman Barbz once treated as Nicki's protector, the friend who became a legend in the fandom after the 2018 New York Fashion Week clash with Cardi B.
