Nicki Minaj Suitcased in Face By Assistant

Kanye West’s “Monster” and basketball-posteriored star Nicki Minaj suffered a fat lip outside a Dallas hotel pool on Monday after she got in an argument with her assistant, Safaree Samuels. Samuels, according to the police report obtained by TMZ, struck her with one of Minaj’s parcels and “shoved the suitcase” against her “chin and lower lip.” Minaj declined to press charges.

Minaj and Samuels were fighting, according to witness Rex Chevalier, because Minaj did not want her assistant to remove “anything out of the room.” However, Samuels said he had some of his stuff in the suitcase so they began arguing and things got physical. He grabbed it from her and smacked her face. Minaj’s “teeth struck the inside of her lower lip, causing the inside of the lower lip to cut and start to bleed,” the officer reported.

The exact nature of the altercation, including what words were thrown around, is not known, but it is suspected that it had something to do with where the suitcases ought to have stayed and that Minaj did not want them to be taken out of her room.

The 28-year-old pop star told the police arriving at the scene “multiple times” that she and Samuels “were only friends and had never been involved in an intimate relationship and were not related at all.” Minaj refused to have any photos taken.
