Here's how it goes: it turns out that during a tour in Germany in 2019, a security guard, Thomas Weidenmuller, ended up having a collision with the couple. The story goes that a overenthusiastic fan managed to sneak into the backstage Minaj's. Although the security acted quickly and expelled the fan, it seems things got heated between Minaj, Petty and Weidenmuller. He outcome: a lawsuit for assault, emotional distress, and negligence.
