Nicki Minaj sparked romance rumours with Nas after she posted on Instagram a photo of herself getting cosy with the rapper, and since then there have been multiple reports linking the duo.

During a recent appearance on Ellen DeGeneres' talk show, she somewhat confirmed dating Nas.

"He is the king of Queens and I'd like to think I'm the queen of Queens," Minaj said. "He's a rap legend, so let's just say, I have a lot of respect for him. And, ya know, he's kinda cute, too!"

She even confirmed that they have had sleepovers, but said they were yet to do the deed. "We didn't do the [nasty] because I'm just chillin' right now," she confirmed. "I'm celibate. I wanted to go a year without dating any man. I hate men. But I might make an exception to the rule for him because he's so dope."

Not everyone is pleased with these dating rumours.

During a recent episode of The Wendy Williams Show, the show host went on to say that Nas could do a lot better than the Anaconda singer

"Nas does not need to have a girlfriend who still sweats the red carpet. I like Nas being low-key. That's one of the things I like — you listen to his lyrics — he's a cool type dude who could smash a Nicki Minaj any day he wants but doesn't have to claim her for a girlfriend," she said.

 

I'm having another GOOD YEAR. We don't get BLIMPS for that. game still cold, we don't get minks for that.  A post shared by Nicki Minaj (@nickiminaj) on May 16, 2017 at 4:16pm PDT
