Nicki Minaj and former NFL star Dez Bryant are locked in a no-holds-barred social media war that’s got everyone from Jay-Z to Kenneth Petty dragged into the mess — and it’s heating up fast.
What started as a Dallas Cowboys contract dispute quickly spiraled into one of the most bizarre celebrity feuds of the year — and now Nicki’s offering $10 MILLION to settle things with fists.
Let’s break it all down…
🏈 It All Started With Jerry Jones and Micah Parsons
The drama kicked off when Cowboys owner Jerry Jones spoke out about Micah Parsons’ new contract, revealing he doesn’t like dealing with agents — and blamed Jay-Z’s Roc Nation for a bad experience while negotiating Dez Bryant’s deal years ago.
That one comment set off a chain reaction.
🔥 Dez and Roc Nation Clap Back
Dez, who worked with Roc Nation at the time, quickly jumped in to defend himself and Jay-Z’s camp — denying that the negotiations were ever messy. Roc Nation also issued a rare public denial, trying to shut the situation down.
But then…
🎤 Nicki Minaj Enters the Chat
Despite having zero ties to the Cowboys, Nicki Minaj inserted herself into the convo — and things exploded.
Nicki, who’s been feuding with Roc Nation behind the scenes (she claims the company owes her money), commented under one of Dez’s posts:
“I have stories too… about Jay-Z and them. Don’t play.”
Dez wasn’t having it. He told Nicki to stay out of it.
But she didn’t.
💥 Personal Shots Fired
Instead of backing off, Nicki brought up Dez’s 2012 arrest for allegedly assaulting his mother — a charge he has long denied. That crossed the line.
Dez fired back hard, reminding Nicki that her husband, Kenneth Petty, is a registered sex offender. Petty’s criminal history has long been a sore spot for Nicki, who’s continued to defend him publicly.
At this point, things went nuclear.
💰 Nicki Drops $10M Fight Offer
In a move that shocked even her most loyal Barbz, Nicki offered $10 million CASH for Dez Bryant to fight her husband Kenneth Petty — and promised it would be handled face-to-face.
“$10 million in cash. Fight him. Right in front of me.”
Dez responded immediately:
“Get the money ready. I’ll beat him up in front of you.”
And just like that, we might have a hip-hop/NFL crossover celebrity boxing match on our hands.
⚠️ This Escalated FAST
What started as a Cowboys contract drama has now turned into:
- A full-on feud between Nicki Minaj and Dez Bryant
- Allegations against Jay-Z and Roc Nation
- A $10M fight offer involving a registered sex offender
- And Twitter/X going absolutely feral
So far, Nicki hasn’t responded to Dez’s fight acceptance, but the situation is spiraling — and fans are wondering if this will go beyond tweets.
🧠 TPR Takeaway
Let’s be real — this beef is messy AF.
You’ve got billionaires, barbs, ex-NFL stars, Roc Nation execs, and criminal records all thrown into the same pot. And now there’s a multimillion-dollar fight on the table.
At this point, the only question is: Will Nicki actually put the money up? Or was this just another viral mic drop?
One thing’s for sure — this feud isn’t over yet.
👀 Your Move, Nicki.
Stay locked to The Pop Radar for updates, receipts, and any video footage if this fight actually happens. Because in 2025, apparently anything goes.
