Nicki also live-tweeted the incident. “They said they found weed & that another group of ppl have to come here to weigh the pre-rolls,” she wrote on X. “Keep in mind they took my bags without consent. My security has already advised them those pre-rolls belong to him. Oh yea & the pilot wants me to take my ig post down.”
She added, “Now they said I have to go 5 mins away to make a statement about my security to the police precinct.”
Meanwhile, Nicki said her luggage was subjected to a manual search. “They’ve been trying to stop me from coming to every show,” Nicki said in an Instagram video. “They took my bags before I could see them. Put it on the plane.”
Nicki had performed at the Ziggo Dome in Amsterdam May 23 and was set to fly to the United Kingdom to perform a scheduled concert in Manchester the day of the incident. However, she was unable to make it in time and Live Nation U.K. said in a statement to NBC News that the show has been postponed.
“Despite Nicki’s best efforts to explore every possible avenue to make tonight’s show happen, the events of today have made it impossible,” the group said. “We are deeply disappointed by the inconvenience this has caused.”
