Nicki Minaj observed a moment of silence during her show at the Resorts World Arena in Birmingham, United Kingdom, on Sunday (May 26), as a mark of respect to her “dear friend” Princess Diana.

A video circulating on social media shows Minaj, who was performing at the venue as part of her “Pink Friday 2 World Tour,” saying, “It always reminds me of a dear friend of mine… Well, she’s not here anymore, but the Princess of Wales,” after some fans told her they are from Wales.

The singer then asked the audience to hold a moment of silence for Princess Diana, who tragically died in a car accident in August 1997 at age 36. Minaj and Diana never met prior to the princess’s death, at which time Minaj was just 14 years old.

Minaj, who has made nods to Diana in the past, was recently featured on Ice Spice‘s 2023 track, “Princess Diana.” The song features the lyric, “Callin’ my phone, but they know I don’t answer/ In the hood, I’m like Princess Diana.”
