The ship has long sailed on “Starships” for Nicki Minaj … and she’s not letting it fly again for anyone, not even on New Year’s Eve!!!
Watch in this TikTok clip … just seconds after starting the iconic 2012 tune while performing at E11EVEN in Miami, the rapper abruptly signals the backing track to stop — leaving fans outraged as she refuses to continue, but she couldn’t care less.
“Hold on. Psych, psych, psych, psych. I don’t perform that song no more, y’all,” the rapper tells the crowd. With their cries of frustration heard loud and clear, Nicki explains: “I don’t like it … what y’all want me to do? Stupid song.”
Thankfully, it was only a brief moment of disappointment for her fans … Nicki quickly launched into another party pleaser, “Super Bass.”

This isn’t the first time Nicki’s made her distaste for “Starships” known … telling Pollstar Live in 2020 she hated it, and questioned why she even came up with that song in the first place.

But don’t feel bad for “Starships” — she also loathes “Your Love” and “Anaconda” — so, it’s in good company.

With the recent release of her album “Pink Friday 2” … we’re hoping she’ll be passionate about performing her fresh catalog of hits in years to come.
