Drake and Nicki Minaj Are Married, but Only on Twitter
This is why you shouldn’t take any relationship rumors seriously until there’s a Facebook status update to confirm.
Earlier today rappers Drake and Nicki Minaj sent fans into a tizzy looking for more information about a tweeted matrimonial announcement.
“Please refer to @nickiminaj as Mrs. Aubrey Drake Graham and dont stare at her too long. She’s finally mine. :)”
to which Minaj replied by asking if her label mate was scared to make the announcement.
She retweeted his response and threw in faux confirmation:
“Yes, its true. Drake and I tied the knot. > RT @drakkardnoir @nickiminaj Baby I am never scared. PROUD is more the word I would use.”
With this tweet, I thee wed...
E! spoke to reps for both though, and both reps denied that the musicians were married. {E! Online} It may not be as subtle as Dr. Lyle Evans, but Drake and Minaj’s combined 2.2 million followers managed to push searches for more information into Google’s list of top trending searches in multiple positions.
In his song Miss Me, Drake raps “I love Nicki Minaj, I told her, I’d admit it; I hope one day we get married, just to say we f–king did it; And girl I’m f–king serious.”
Minaj has an album coming out in November, so while the buzz isn’t likely to last long enough to compel fans to purchase her album to find out if there’s any more truth to the romance rumors, there’s plenty of time for Twitter separations, reconciliations and even a divorce between now and then to keep the marketing magic alive.
