Nicki Minaj And SZA Have Heated Exchange Online: 'Go Draw Your Freckles Back On'

Yahoo18-07-2025
Nicki Minaj and SZA had social media in a chokehold on Tuesday (July 15) when they got into a heated exchange on X — leaving many confused about how their rift began.
It all kicked off when Nicki took aim at Top Dawg Entertainment president Punch, accusing him of bullying her online.
'Me after I suck some good zik. Guarantee you wouldn't fight a man,' she wrote on X. 'We have every tweet of your incessant bullying, lying, & more. Your name was added to that sh*t list sh*tty drawers. Same thing that make you laugh make you…sh*t.'
In the middle of her rant, SZA posted what seemed like a harmless message about Mercury retrograde, writing, 'Don't take the bait lol silly goose.' Nicki, however, wasn't here for what she perceived as 'shade.'
She responded directly, dragging the Grammy-winning singer with jabs about her appearance, streaming numbers, and signature freckles. 'Go draw your freckles back on bookie #JusticeForDemoree #DepositionPerez Liar liar pants on fire. Sounding like a fkng dead dog,' Minaj wrote, also taking aim at Roc Nation CEO Desiree Perez.
SZA clapped back quickly, tweeting, 'I don't give a f**k bout none of that weird sh*t you popping,' while Nicki fired off another tweet, writing, 'Bi**h looking & sounding like she got stung by a f**king bee. dot dot dot *Draws on my fake freckles.'
Trying to clarify her original message, SZA responded to one of Nicki's fans, writing, 'I wasn't even talking about or to anyone I had just got off stage talkin bout retrograde. NI**AS @'d ME. The F**K YES IM MAD NOW DO YOU NEED THAT !??'
Eventually, SZA decided to exit the conversation, tweeting, 'Lmao lemme go back to being calm shy and meek. Yall have blessed night! See you tomorrow for night 2 Paris !!'
But Nicki wasn't finished. She shot back, 'Shutup ugly. I'm in a meeting so idk if u was still talking shit or not so if you didn't I'll delete later. H*e.' Then she doubled down in another post: 'Bi**h damn near broke that man back & leg. Bi**h fat chubby & Skinny @ the same damn time,' referring to SZA nearly falling during the GNX tour opening night while performing a move with one of her backup dancers.
'bi**h where are those 30 million streams that disappeared on Spotify like your feaux freckles. Botting tweets when you arguing is just as weird as sza,' she continued.
Bringing others into the mix, Minaj recalled a few past post from SZA where she allegedly shaded Rihanna, Ciara, and Beyoncé, all of who she has built a relationship with since then.
'Btch used to be on twitter dissing Rihanna, [Ciara], etc. but then when it was time to suck zick & get opportunities from them, she drew them freckles on & got to sucking right? Allegedly,' Minaj wrote on X. 'Like bi**h stop being jealous of women who you secretly would kill to be up their a** holes.'
She added, 'These men putting batteries in yall backs & yall stupid enough to still keep it going not peeping that it's not going to end well for them or you.'
The whole exchange had fans wondering if there was some deeper beef between the two women. After all, SZA co-wrote Nicki's 2014 Beyoncé-assisted track 'Feeling Myself,' so they've worked together before. As we all know, the 'Snooze' singer is also close to Kendrick Lamar, who performed the 2025 Super Bowl halftime show over Lil Wayne in New Orleans
Her TDE ties to K.Dot has had some fans assuming she might've taken sides in the ongoing Drake vs. Kendrick feud, where Nicki sided with her Young Money brethren, Drake.
Take a look at the exchange between SZA and Nicki Minaj above.

Brad Pitt's mother Jane Pitt dies at 84, family mourns her loss

Brad Pitt 's mother, Jane Pitt, has died at the age of 84, the actor's niece, Sydney Pitt, announced this week. According to her obituary, Jane Pitt died on Tuesday, Aug. 5. She is survived by her husband William Alvin "Bill" Pitt and their children, Brad Pitt, Doug Pitt and Julie Neal (née Pitt). In an Instagram post on Wednesday, Sydney Pitt, Doug Pitt's daughter, wrote a touching tribute to her grandmother, celebrating her legacy and the love she gave to others. "My sweet Grammy, Jane Etta, we were not ready for you to go yet but knowing you are finally free to sing, dance, and paint again makes it a tad easier," she wrote in the caption alongside photos of Jane Pitt throughout her life. "If you knew Grammy, you knew she had the biggest heart. She cared deeply for everyone and everything, no questions asked," she continued. "She taught me how to paint, how to be strong, how to lead with kindness, to love Jesus through everything, and to find joy in the smallest things. She made up the silliest games just to make us laugh, and she believed in fairness, in putting others first, and doing good simply because it was the right thing to do." Sydney Pitt also recalled how every year before school, Jane would give each grandchild a "special day," filled with activities like banana splits, board games and rides at Silver Dollar City. "She could keep up with all 14 of us grandkids without missing a beat. There was no limit to the love she gave, and everyone who met her felt it," Sydney Pitt added. "I don't know how we move forward without her. But I know she's still here in every brushstroke, every kind gesture, every hummingbird. She was love in its purest form." "We were truly blessed to have her to love on growing up and I know she lives on through each of us ♥️🪽✨🦜," she concluded the post. Born in Memphis, Tennessee, Jane Pitt was a former elementary school teacher who raised Brad Pitt and her two other children with her husband, Bill Pitt, in Springfield, Missouri. While Jane Pitt and Bill typically avoided the spotlight, they occasionally accompanied their famous son on the red carpet, including at the 2012 Oscars and the 2014 premiere of Angelina Jolie's "Unbroken." Her obituary also highlights Jane Pitt's passion for art and her devoted role as a grandmother. "Jane was a gifted artist who expressed herself most vividly through painting," the obituary read. "Her love for art became a cherished bond between her and her grandchildren during craft sessions and painting lessons that created lasting memories." "Known affectionately as 'Grammy,' Jane found immense joy in celebrating each grandchild's uniqueness through one-on-one traditions lovingly known as 'Your Special Day,'" the note continued. "These treasured moments remain among the fondest memories for all fourteen of her grandchildren."

The ‘Hamilton' musical movie is coming to theaters this September

The hit Broadway musical 'Hamilton' is making its way to the big screen on Sept. 5. Lin-Manuel Miranda announced the theatrical release date for the Tony Award-winning musical Tuesday night during an interview on 'The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.' 'We always wanted to release it theatrically, but then the pandemic hit and so we decided to release it on streaming, so that everyone could see it at home whenever they wanted,' Miranda said on the show. '[Soon] you will be able to see 'Hamilton' in movie theaters nationwide and in Puerto Rico.' The show's cinematic release marks a major milestone: It's been nearly 10 years since the off-Broadway premiere of 'Hamilton,' which was based on the life of Alexander Hamilton, a founding father of the United States. Created by Miranda, who also composed the music, lyrics and book, the hip-hop- and R&B-inflected musical used source material from 'Alexander Hamilton,' a 2004 biography written by Ron Chernow. The musical went on to win 11 Tony Awards, including best musical, and the Pulitzer Prize for drama in 2016. The film was shot in June 2016, during a live performance at the Richard Rodgers Theatre on Broadway, and features much of the original cast. This includes Miranda as Alexander Hamilton; Leslie Odom Jr. as Aaron Burr; Renée Elise Goldsberry as Angelica Schuyler and Phillipa Soo as Eliza Hamilton. The film was originally slated for release in movie theaters in October 2021. Disney paid $75 million for worldwide movie rights in 2020 and released it later that year exclusively on its streaming platform; the film went on to win two Emmy Awards in 2021. The 'Hamilton' anniversary is being celebrated in more ways than one. Prior to Miranda's 'Tonight Show' interview, Madame Tussauds New York unveiled a wax figure of Miranda dressed as Alexander Hamilton at the Richard Rodgers Theatre. Two special performances of the hit musical will also take place at the same theater today. Every actor who has performed on the Broadway musical since its opening has been invited, according to the Associated Press. Attendees for the matinee were already selected via a lottery process and the evening performance is an invite-only fundraiser for the Immigrants: We Get the Job Done Coalition — a host of 14 immigrant service organizations that uplift immigrant communities across the country. Tickets for the film are now available for purchase.
