American rapper and singer-songwriter Nicki Minaj has opened up about why she stopped attending church regularly after achieving success in the music industry.
Speaking during a recent episode of The Bryce Crawford Podcast, the award-winning artist explained that a change did not influence her decision in her faith or beliefs, but by the demands of her career.
According to Minaj, her busy performance schedule, which often includes shows on Friday and Saturday nights, made it difficult for her to attend Sunday church services.
“Once my career started taking off, I stopped going to church. I was working on Friday nights and Saturday nights, so the last thing I could do was wake up on Sunday mornings to go to church,” she said.
Despite no longer attending church regularly, Minaj stressed that she still maintains a strong relationship with God.
