Nicki Minaj has exciting news for fans amid the European leg of her sold-out “Pink Friday 2 Tour.”
Breaking the news on her socials this Friday (May 24), the “FTCU” rapper thrilled fans by revealing her Stateside return in September for round two, nearly a year after igniting the first leg in November.
“We did it, Barbz,” she exclaimed with a hand heart emoji. “The first US leg of the #PinkFriday2 #GAGCITY TOUR was SO SUCCESSFUL, I was offered a 2nd leg beginning in SEPTEMBER [celebration emojis] Sign up now & tkts will go on sale in a few more days.”
Adding, “Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. God is good. Don’t you ever give up. You got this. [wink emoji] let’s go!!!!!!! #NickiAnnouncement”
Although details about future shows remain under wraps for now, fans eager for a taste of what’s to come can sign up here for updates.
Kicking off in March in Oakland, California, the tour hit 34 cities across the US and Canada, wrapping up in May in Oklahoma City. Nicki brought the house down with four double-headers, netting over $3 million each in hotspots like Atlanta, Boston, Brooklyn, Chicago, and Toronto, Billboard reports.
Her NYC-area shows alone pulled in a whopping $9.3 million and sold over 54,000 tickets, with her Madison Square Garden gig claiming the crown for the tour’s biggest moneymaker.
Nicki’s tour outpaced her previous ones by a mile, with nightly averages nearly tripling those of her past ventures. And with these record-breaking numbers, she’s now climbing rap’s all-time top-grossing list, securing her spot as a true rap queen.
Amid her whirlwind tour, Barbz dipped her toes into the footwear game earlier this year, teaming up with urban-lux vegan sneaker and apparel brand LØCI.
“4/12 = 11 new pairs of my OWN sneaker. 11 completely different designs for you to choose from. An absolute dream come true. I can’t WAIT for you guys to see my 1st collection!!!! Link in bio to SIGN UP NOW!!!!! [pink heart emoji],” she wrote on Instagram, giving fans a first look at the collaboration which launch in April.
