If you watched the Billboard Music Awards on Sunday night, you'll be well aware that Drake and Nicki Minaj have not only put their feud to bed but they got under the metaphorical covers, had a snuggle and proclaimed their love for one another, much like he did at last year's VMAs with Rihanna.
However, this time, Drake's love was reciprocated on stage.
And yet, while we are bared witness to the Canadian singer telling the Trinidadian-born American singer: 'Nicki Minaj, I'm so glad we found our way back, because I love you and I could never, ever see it any other way.' with Nicki replying 'I love you, I love you, I love you!', it sounds like Minaj has had it with men, for now at least.
And we're not quite sure whether we have Drake or Nicki's rumoured new love interest, Nas, to blame.
During an appearance on the Ellen DeGeneres Show yesterday, Nicki 'accidentally' let slip she was currently dating American singer Nas and they've even enjoyed a – shock horror – adult 'sleepover'.
'But no, let me clarify….we didn't do the…' she told Ellen, before the present supplied the end of the sentence with the word, 'nasty?'
During the interview, the star described her new beau as 'so dope. He's such a king' and revealed: 'We're both from Queens. He is the king of queens and I'd like to think I am the queen of queens. He is a rap legend. I have a lot of respect for him. And he's cute too.'
However, Minaj added she has no plans to enjoy the, er, 'sideways tango' with the rapper anytime soon.
'I'm chillin' right now. I'm celibate. I wanted to go a year without dating any man. I hate men. But, I might make an exception to the rule for him,' joked Nicki.
Now, we must add Minaj did laugh when she said she hated men so we're not too sure how serious she's being about her new-found celibacy.
While we're a bit sad we won't hear Drake and Nicki announcing their new romance together (to be fair, it would be a little bit of a brother-sister relationship if they did) we're happy to see the singer/rapper celebrating her independence and see her enjoying the single life, albeit with the odd snuggle with Nas.
