But, alas, we do not live in a sane word.
FWIW, I know several Trinidadians who I saw today and they think she is a fucking embarrassment.

Here is how the Nicki Minaj story was covered on CNC3 Television in Port of Spain, Trinidad.

so instantly when Minaj says something ABSURD, it is taken as absolute gospel because it is the information the support the conclusion.
