The artist stunned fans when she posted a photo snapped at the reunion taping shortly after filming wrapped, on October 7.
Bravo stars sounded off about the surprise RHOP plot twist.
“I need to know the date of the reunion so I can clear that week to prepare… Yasss @nickiminaj @bravoandy #Rhop,” Real Housewives of Atlanta star, Porsha Williams, commented.
“I cannnnnooootttttt evenn!!!! Major major FOMO!!!!!!” Shahs of Sunset’s Golnesa “GG” Gharachedaghi added.
Gizelle Bryant spilled that it “was fire” to have the artist on the set during the post-season chat session. She also revealed that the ladies had no idea that the popular singer would be in the mix.
“Nicki showed up around 9:15 p.m. and none of the ladies knew she was there,” a source said. “They were so shocked when she walked out.”
The famous rapper follows her favorite “Housewives” on social media, including Karen Huger and Robyn Dixon, and has been outspoken about being a RHOP superfan.
The Bravo cast reportedly knew that Nicki might show up if her busy schedule allowed it.
“They knew it was a possibility,” the insider added. “But her appearance was saved for the very end as a total surprise.”
Nicki enlisted her fans—whom she calls “The Barbz”—to assist her in coming up with some hard-hitting questions for the RHOP cast.
“She asked the ladies 3 or 4 questions that were sent to her from The Barbz into her DMs off social media,” the snitch dished.
The Real Housewives of Potomac airs on Sundays at 8 pm, ET, on Bravo.
