Nicki Minaj Father’s Death:
The first time I ever saw a dead body was at my father’s funeral. He was killed in an accident, and the doctors were so good to make him look as if he had just fallen asleep – that way, we could have all our memories of his life without being haunted by what happened when it ended.
She Wrote:
I can’t really bring myself to discuss the passing of my father as of yet, I can say it has been the most devastating loss of my life. I find myself wanting to call him all the time. More so now that he’s gone. Life is really funny that way. May his soul rest in paradise. He was very loved and will be very missed.
