In a recent interview on the Gloria Velez Podcast, Nicki Minaj’s sister Ming Li addressed confusion surrounding Nicki’s half-brother, who was convicted in 2017.
Ming Li clarified that the man in question is not her brother and is unrelated to her; he is Nicki Minaj’s mother’s child, not her father’s. “That’s not my brother,” she stated firmly, emphasizing her focus on her own music career and future ambitions instead of the controversy. Ming Li, who shares a father with Nicki Minaj but was raised separately, spoke warmly about her sister’s support and dismissed rumors implying competition between them.
Ming Li, sister of rap superstar Nicki Minaj, shared candid insights about the challenges of growing up with a sibling in the spotlight. Despite not sharing the same last name due to family dynamics, Ming Li revealed that having a famous sister brought both privilege and pressure. Ming Li also opened up about being bullied at school, not necessarily for fame but over small things like her outfits or hairstyle, influenced by her parents’ choice to raise her modestly. She noted that jealousy and envy often fueled bullying and emphasized the importance of self-respect and grace.
