Nicki Minaj fans are outraged after the American rapper’s concert at Manchester’s Co-op Live arena was canceled at the last minute following her arrest at Schiphol Airport in Amsterdam.
Minaj was arrested on suspicion of drug trafficking before being fined and allowed to continue her journey, Dutch police said.
However, she did not make it to Manchester on time for her Saturday concert, which was postponed as approximately 20,000 fans were at the venue waiting for her to take the stage.

They included Imogen Papa, 18, from Newton-le-Wilows in Merseyside, who said she was “so angry.”
“I spent £150 on my ticket and cleared my day for it, and we sat there for about three hours waiting and were told it’s not happening,” she said. “I’m gutted.”
Ellis Day, 17, from Cheshire, said she was “really upset.”
“We’ve come here, we’ve spent the whole day getting ready, to see this happen.
“It’s really upsetting when we put our hopes and money into it, and we’re told at the very last minute that she won’t even show up.”
