Sia Apologizes After Mistaking Nicki Minaj For Cardi B

Sia Responds To Backlash After She Mixed Up Nicki Minaj with Cardi B

Sia went viral on twitter on Friday after she mixed up Nicki Minaj with Cardi B.  It all started when a fan asked if she would ever collaborate with Nicki Minaj. “Have u seen this pic?” the fan asked, referring to a photo of Nicki rocking a wig similar to Sia’s signature black and white bob.

“Where’s the collab with Nicki Minaj? We need it.” Sia proceeded to respond to the tweet, seemingly confusing Nicki for her arch rival, Cardi B. “I love Cardi B and although this isn’t a collaboration, I would love to COLLAB with her any day!”

Nicki fans were furious that she’d made such a dreadful mistake, reminding Sia that Nicki and Cardi have had beef for years. However, Sia told fans that they should not be worried about a feud and instead putting their energy into more important matters.

“Dudes. I also like [Nicki Minaj]. I don’t give a sh*t about feuds,” she wrote in a since-deleted tweet. “George Floyd was f*cking murdered Breonna Taylor. Murdered. Come on let’s rise in unity. You think Cardi B and Nikki [sic] are so petty that they would want you focusing on a silly feud instead of REAL NEWS?”

Sia later tagged both rappers in another since-deleted tweet, rhetorically asking them if they were concerned about their feud right now to get the point across to fans. However, out of context, the tweet appears to be calling out Nicki and Cardi for supposedly reigniting their own feud instead of focusing on what really matters.

“Hey @iamcardib @NICKIMINAJ you aren’t thinking about a feud right now are you? We are focused on the problem of systemic racism.”

She then deleted all the tweets, and apologized for accidentally causing outrage. “I totally misunderstood a tweet earlier that has resulted in me making a buffoon out of myself,” Sia tweeted. “Sorry @NICKIMINAJ and @iamcardib if you hear about it. Can I just like you both?”

I totally misunderstood a tweet earlier that has resulted in me making a buffoon out of myself.
Sorry @NICKIMINAJ and @iamcardib if you hear about it.
Can I just like you both?
