Popular YouTube personality Kimberly Nicole Foster plans to take legal action against Nicki Minaj fans who posted her personal information online, prompting a torrent of abuse that has lasted all week.

Foster plans to file a lawsuit as early as next week, she told The Daily Beast. The pop culture commentator has already filed a report with her local police department and submitted a tip to the FBI, complete with screenshots that show some of Minaj’s most passionate fans, known as the Barbz, threatening to kill and rape her for criticizing their favorite rapper.

Foster, 33, says the turmoil started earlier this week, after she posted a tweet that read, “Nicki is so clearly a horrible person. Negativity sticks to her like glue. Idk if we’ve ever seen this before.”



Within hours of posting the tweet early Monday morning, Foster’s Twitter inbox, mentions and texts were flooded.

“It was normal, annoying stuff where I was like, ‘OK, block and move on,’” Foster told The Daily Beast. “The messages became more threatening and dark, and then it started to be, ‘We’re gonna find you. I’m gonna kidnap you, I hope you get raped.’”

The backlash has been exhausting for Foster, a Harvard graduate who founded a women’s empowerment blog, For Harriet, back in 2010. One of her first blog posts actually celebrated Minaj for ushering in “a new standard for beauty in America” with her curvy figure. In the years since, Foster has turned her focus to YouTube, where she sounds off on everything from celebrity gossip to her own struggles with mental health.

Ppl getting tired of stan behavior . I just wonder how far this suit will go and if it will be a deterrent.

She shared more on her Twitter

She got Nicki in 4k liking the harassment as well(so far she isn't suing Nicki)

Barbz going hard for a bytch that said nikkas can rape their girlfriends and had a whole pedophile brother and was protecting him

[Low End Derrick]

Feral beasts.

 

[Born2BKing]

Celebrity worship is fukking crazy. And mafukkas don't even worship admirable people, they admiring a rapper with a bad booty job.

Barbz are not the only fanbase that gets out of hand but they are unique in that Nicki often "rewards" them for that behavior by following them and liking tweets or even responding giving them the "green light".
Exhibit A:

 

[King Poetic]

Nicki got her fans out here looking like trump supporters, knowing damn well she will not pay one cent of the lawsuit money or bail if the feds come through with this shyt on her fans

Dumbass nikkas

Exhibit A:

Which makes it ironic considering the fact that just last week Nicki was accused of doing the exact same thing to someone else in doxxing giving her fans the green light to go after someone.

I learned not to fukk with Beyonce, Nicki, or Kpop fans (specifically BTS, BlackPink etc), on twitter or any social media sites.

This is not the first or 4th time Nicki has sicced her fans on ppl and that's why it's a little different than other fandoms. Beyoncé isn't giving Hive the green light, Rihanna isn't following stan pages that harass her detractors. She feeds into that energy and off that energy.

I will always respect Nicki's talent but as a person she is a mess.

I don't see how she hasn't caught a major lawsuit from it yet especially considering that the receipts can easily be pulled showing that she eggs them on. I'm guessing it's because those stans haven't physically done anything as far as my knowledge.

I can't think of any other fandoms whose celebrity eggs on fams and fuels them in the way that Nicki does.
