Nicki's husband appearing in the video is seemingly no coincidence.

Nicki Minaj took to Instagram to announce a new edition of her Queen Radio series. She made the announcement with a video she recorded of herself and husband Kenneth Petty. She's rocking a no-makeup look and lip-syncing to some music with the actual announcement coming in the caption. "#QueenRADIO in NEW YORK tmrw @ 4pm est 😉🤪😝😎 WHO POPPIN OUT?!?!!!!! #HeavyOnIt" it reads.

Kenneth Petty appearing in the video is likely no coincidence. He's had an ongoing beef with Offset that many fans have viewed as a proxy beef between Nicki and Cardi themselves. After Petty made public threats against Offset, he was re-sentenced to house arrest. Nicki Minaj reacted to the announcement with a cryptic tweet, while Cardi B took a much more direct approach in her response. "EXACTLY KEEP ME AND MY MANS OUT YALL F*CKING MOUTH!!!" the "I Like It" singer said in a new tweet. Check out Nicki's Queen Radio announcement video and the fan reaction to it below.
