Nicki Minaj announced the dates for her Pink Friday 2 tour last year, following the release of her album of the same name. This marked her first album in 5 years since Queen. The tour began in February and has been consistently in the news since. Instead of having various opening acts, she opted to bring out multiple high-profile guests at almost every tour stop. While Nicki has already started the European leg of the tour, fans in North America will have another opportunity to see her. She recently revealed a second North American leg of the Pink Friday 2 tour later this year, with 22 new dates from early September to October. The tour will cover 21 different locations, including an additional show in Los Angeles. Pre-sale for the new shows starts today, with general sale launching on Friday.
Recently, Nicki made headlines for being arrested in Amsterdam on alleged drug charges. This incident sparked backlash due to how she was treated by the police. Despite being released shortly after with a fine, she had to cancel the Manchester tour date. However, the show was promptly rescheduled with a new date announced.
