Months after teasing her involvement in the Real Housewives of Potomac reunion, Nicki Minaj has confirmed that she will indeed be taking over hosting duties from Andy Cohen.

Back in July, Minaj shared a trailer for the show, in which the cast talked about their lives with remixed lyrics of her hit track, 'Moment 4 Life'.

"I'll be hosting the reunion. 🥳 lmk what y'all want me to ask chile🥴," the caption read.

However, Minaj has provoked plenty of controversy since then, making headlines for her anti-vax comments.

Last month, the 'Super Bass' hitmaker suggested in a tweet to her 22.9 million followers that COVID-19 vaccines cause impotence, despite the fact there is no link between the vaccines and infertility.

"His testicles became swollen," Minaj claimed in a tweet that quickly went viral.

Just over 54 per cent of the total US population is vaccinated, according to the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

"Some fans of the reality show took to social media on Friday to complain about giving Minaj a platform following her comments.

"Wait @BravoTv really let Nicki Minaj host the #RHOP reunion and she's not vaccinated? I'm seeing videos of her walking around without a mask on and not socially distancing. Seems very irresponsible on their behalf," one commentator wrote on Twitter.

Another said: "It makes absolutely no sense to have her host the reunion."

Another added: "This gonna be so freaking epic&awesome @NICKIMINAJ @Andy @BravoTV."
