If reports are anything to go by, one of the reasons for Nicki Minaj's break-up with her long-time boyfriend was that she smashed his car with a baseball bat.
Tmz.com reports that during the summer Nicki and Safaree Samuels got into an argument. She started screaming, he got pissed, and she exploded in anger, grabbing a bat and chasing him out of the house. She wisely chose property over person, and pulverized the 2012 Mercedez Benz.
And for bad measure, she threw his clothes into the garbage -- just like in the movies.
Law enforcement sources said the police were called to the house, but no arrests were made.
Safaree was escorted out of the house and left.
As for why Nicki didn't get in trouble, it appears she owned the Mercedes but allowed him to use it, and you can't get arrested for destroying your own property.
They broke up a short time later. Wise move.
