Nicki Minaj's Old High School Won't Let Her Speak To Its Current Students -- And Here's Why

Nicki Minaj is mad.
That’s because after she tried to reach out to her old stomping grounds, LaGuardia High School, to give a speech to the current students, she was told by administration that she wasn’t welcome.
Nicki took to Twitter to vent, saying:

I wanted to go back to my HS and speak to the students but the new principal declined. No need for me to inspire them, I guess. Smh

She then followed up that original tweet, clarifying:

That school changed my life and I wanted to pay it forward to the students there now. I was really looking forward to it.

It seems that Principal Lisa Mars denied Nicki’s request to speak with the students at her alma mater.
But that’s not the worst part: LaGuardia is a Performing Arts school!
That’s right. Nicki is literally one of the most successful entertainers out there right now and she isn’t allowed to give a speech to students who are studying to do exactly what she’s doing.
And it’s not like Nicki is even a bad influence on anyone’s potential education. She’s actually one of the most outspoken advocates for staying in school.
It just doesn’t make any sense to us that a principal would stop someone who could be such a positive influence on their kids from speaking to the student body.
We guess Nicki will just have to keep her success from Anaconda to herself.
