The Nicki Minaj testicle-tweet saga continues.

As pundits from across the globe give their take on Nicki’s vaccine hesitancy and her story about a cousin’s friend supposedly getting swollen testicles sometime after getting vaccinated, Piers Morgan and other Brits have come out in full force. 

After UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson was asked about Minaj in a press conference, admitting he’s “not as familiar with the works of Nicki Minaj as I probably should be,” the MC hopped back on Twitter in her go-to British accent to reply. 

I love him even tho I guess this was a diss? The accent ugh! Yassss boo!!!

“I was born there, I went to university there, I went to Oxford. I went to school with Margaret Thatcher and she told me so many nice things about you,” Nicki joked in a voice recording. “I’d love to send you a portfolio of my work since you don’t know much about me. I am a big, big star in the United States.”

The UK’s Chief Medical Officer Chris Whitty also said at a news conference that Nicki “should be ashamed,” adding that there are “a number of myths that fly around, some of which are just clearly ridiculous and some of which are clearly designed just to scare. That happens to be one of them.”

Seeing Nicki’s tweets, Piers Morgan then hopped online to call Nicki “ghastly” and “one of the rudest little madams I’ve ever met,” adding that she is “peddling lies that will cost lives.”

Professor Whitty beefing with the ghastly @NICKIMINAJ (one of the rudest little madams I’ve ever met) is not the breaking news that I expected today - but it’s most welcome. She’s peddling lies that will cost lives.

Minaj hit back at the British host swiftly.

 “Sir I’ve never met you,” Minaj wrote in a quote tweet. “I know…we all look alike. ‘Rudest little madam.’ I like it. Has a special ring to it. Thanks Pierce. Love the accent. I’d love to come chat. Scones. Tea. Clown nose & big red shoes for you. Lmk babe”

Piers opted to criticize the one-time American Idol host by alleging they met at America’s Got Talent when she was a “guest act” and that she “refused” to say hello to his sons because she was busy. 

Madam, we met on @AGT when you appeared as a guest act - but you refused to say hello to my three young sons because you were ‘too busy’. Oh, and it’s ‘Piers’ - I know, we Brit names all sound alike. https://t.co/twedCv1Fae

“Stop fkng lying,” Nicki wrote in response. “I never turn down pics with kids. If a middle person told you that, they were out of line. don’t blame me you stupid piece of shit.”

The tweets began winding down after a couple hours of back-and-forths with various users, but Nicki still asked Morgan to hop on Instagram Live with her—while regretfully tagging the wrong user—and wrote that she’s “been laughing til my stomach hurts.” Check out that last batch of tweets below.
