Fans haven't heard much from Nicki Minaj since she concluded her "Nicki WRLD Tour" at the end of March. The European leg of the shows was riddled with technical issues and cancelations, but the queen of the Barbz was able to work through the difficulties and negative headlines to complete the stint like the professional that she is.

Back in April, Chris Brown confirmed that he and Minaj will be hitting the road for a summer tour, so it's expected that the rapper is taking time to iron out the details, especially following such a complicated run earlier this year. Now that Minaj has cut ties with her longtime managers Cortez Bryant and Gee Roberson, fans will have to patiently await what's next as things are shaking up behind the scenes.

Yet, one thing everyone can count on is for Minaj to strut her stuff on the Met Gala red carpet. Opting for a pale pink look from head-to-toe, Minaj wore a Prabal Gurung, custom-made gown that featured hand-embroidered chandelier crystals and a silk taffeta train. A fan caught Minaj as she was making her way through the chaos of the Ball and couldn't pass up the chance to spit the rapper's Met Gala line from "Barbiana.

"You 'bout to shut it down at Met Galiana, you peanut head b*tches is always jellyana," he rapped to Minaj who saw him and help him finish the line. She was all smiles during the exchange before running off to her awaiting vehicle.
