— NICKI MINAJ (@NICKIMINAJ) July 24, 2017The artist finally managed to release her first Snapchats in the world, first posting a photo with the caption “First snap who dis,” following up with a saved photo from her archives.
Due to her newbie status, Minaj was not prepared for the deluge that came shortly after her first posts. She was soon bombarded with calls, private messages, pictures and videos from fans on the app, leaving her unable to get anything done on her phone.
Despite a shaky start, Minaj managed to reply to some sweet messages from fans. Hopefully she’s found her Snapchat bearings so she can focus on slaying.
