Nicki Minaj has appeared to reveal that she is dating fellow rapper Eminem. Yes, really.

The ‘Chun-Li’ star posted a verse on Instagram in which she raps about Eminem, saying in one line: “Told em’ I met Slim Shady, bag the M / Once he go black, he’ll be back again.”

In a passing comment on the clip, one fan asked her if they were dating, and Nicki replied with a simple “yes”.

While Nicki may just be messing with fans, the news that two of the world’s biggest rappers are dating would be pretty huge – for one, they would be a massive music power couple.

Though there is every possibility she is just trolling us to promote the new song.

The pair have worked together in the past, notably on Nicki’s 2010 single ‘Roman’s Revenge’.

Last year, rumours suggested Nicki was dating rapper Nas, though she said on an appearance on Ellen: “I’m just chillin’ right now. I’m celibate. I wanted to go a year without dating any man. I hate men.

“I might make an exception to the rule for him, because he’s so dope.”

Eminem, meanwhile, was previously married to Kimberly Anne Scott, with whom he has a daughter, Hailie.
