JUST WHEN WE thought we had seen the most surprising new celebrity couple in Elon Musk and Grimes, along comes Nicki Minaj and Eminem.

Yeah, really.

In an Instagram post earlier today, Nicki shared some lyrics from her verse on YG’s Big Bank track. They include:

Uh oh, back again. Back to back Maybach stack the Ms. Told em I met Slim Shady, bag the M. Once he go black, he’ll be back again.

OK, weird enough.

But then a fan asked her if she’s dating Eminem, and she simply replied ‘yes’.

Eminem has of course previously worked with Nicki on Roman’s Revenge, a track on hr Pink Friday album.

Nicki was last rumoured to be dating Nas, but that ended in December.

But is Eminem really her new bit, or was she just taking the piss?

The rapper is set to release her new album in August, which is extremely convenient I’d say.
