Crews 
Nicki Minaj is getting a lot of backlash from her fans on Twitter after the rapper seemingly failed to Tweet anything about the Orlando shootings, and even unfollowed a fan after he questioned why she hadn’t.
The fan tweeted the following message below after seeing Nicki on social media promoting her new single.
Nicki must have gotten wind of the tweet because shortly after she unfollowed him, and he took back to Twitter to share the screenshot proof.
This then sparked fans to Tweet questioning Nicki’s lack of response and the shade she threw at her fan, considering her fan base is mostly LGBT.
I’m disappointed I thought Nicki would come online and tweet about the tragedies but, she’s promoting a song. oh well.

Interesting that the majority of @NICKIMINAJ fan base are gay men yet she has been MIA about Orlando.. But is quick to clap back and block ☕

The thing with Nicki Minaj is that she’s not even being silent about Orlando, she’s acknowledging and laughing about her lack of a statement

Nicki Minaj was more vocal about not getting nominated for a VMA than about the Orlando shooting smh

. @NICKIMINAJ would not have a career if it wasn’t for the LGBT community, yet she can’t be bothered to mention Orlando when we need support

her to speak on the issue. Literally a vast majority of her fans are part of the LGBT community, they buy all her songs, albums, fragrances.

@NICKIMINAJ is not obligated to comment on Orlando. Neither are the other artists y’all trying to drag. ?

My thoughts on Nicki Minaj. She doesn’t have to tweet about the Orlando victims actions speak way louder than words why tweet when help them

Although she was silent, Nicki was apparently ‘liking’ and ‘favoriting’ tweets that co-signed that she should NOT have to speak on anything.
Nicki finally took to Twitter, to seemingly laugh off the serious matter when she issued the following tweet.
U bet ur bottom dollar. ???God is sooooo good. Love u guys. Thank u?????? https://t.co/Wz4Owv5ajT

Do you think Nicki, or celebs in general are obligated or at least should tweet during tragedies such as this? especially when their primary fan base is the gay community?
Thoughts?
I find it troubling that BET made no mention of the Orlando tragedy. Maybe I missed it, but was Orlando even given a moment of silence during the show? Homophobia in the black community continues BAU.
