Check out PEOPLE’sfull AMAs coverageto get the latest news on one of music’s biggest nights.
While Minaj’s albumQueenwas not nominated and she wasn’t spotted on the red carpet, reports say there’s a chance she may have snuck in under the radar.
If the pair do meet, it comes just asCardi B, 25 has spoken out on what fueled her attack.
“For a while now she’s been taking a lot of shots at me,” Cardi said of Minaj in herrecentWcover story. “I spoke to her twice before, and we came to an understanding. But she kept it going.”
However, a rep for the AMAs tells PEOPLE that Minaj was not in attendance.
As she alluded to in her Instagram post she shared the night of the fight, the fuse for the fight was lit when Minaj, 35, allegedly criticized her skills as a parent toKulture Kiari, her 3-month-old daughterwith Migos rapper Offset.Cardi believes that Minaj liked (but then unliked) a social media post that mocked her as a mom — a claim Minaj herself reportedly denies.
ThoughMinaj has spoken out publiclyabout the fight, saying the ordeal was “humiliating”, the rapper hasn’t entirely backed down from the drama.
Last week Minaj released a new merchandise line with products bearing the words “Nicki Stopped My Bag” – alluding to when Cardi accused her of trying to interfere with her career.
The 2018 American Music Awards are airing live from the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles on Tuesday, Oct. 9 at 8 p.m. EST on ABC.
