Nicki Minaj’s highly anticipated album, Pink Friday 2, is set to drop this week, and her loyal fans, known as Barbz, are beyond excited. In fact, they are so thrilled that they have taken to social media to celebrate the release using the hashtag #GagCity – and it has taken off in ways they could never have expected.
What started off as a simple tag to let the rapper know how excited they are to be “gagged” by Pink Friday 2 quickly grew into something much bigger. Within a matter of hours, fans had created a digital world called “Gag City” using artificial intelligence. This virtual city is complete with pink airports, mansions, skyscrapers, and even festivals.
But the creativity didn’t stop there. Barbz started generating various businesses and landmarks within “Gag City”, including chicken shops, marijuana dispensaries, radio halls, Targets, Best Buys, and museums. The list seems to be endless, with fans getting more and more creative by the minute.
Celebrities and global brands also jumped on the bandwagon, sharing their plans to visit “Gag City”. Spotify even posted an AI snap of its “Gag City” headquarters and announced it as a new sound town. Watch What Happens Live! declared that they needed “The Real Housewives of Gag City”.
Barbz took it a step further by inviting AI versions of their favorite celebrities to “Gag City”. From Kris Jenner to Miley Cyrus to Anna Wintour, everyone seemed to be joining in on the fun. And of course, Nicki Minaj herself couldn’t resist the trend. She tweeted, “As we begin to prepare for landing, please make sure your tray tables are put back up & your seat belts are tightly fastened. The captain has activated the ‘no bathroom’ sign. If you look out the window, you’ll begin to see the beauty…clear waters, pink dolphins…”
This trend is a testament to the power of fandoms, particularly Barbz, who have proven once again that they truly run the internet. Their dedication and creativity have brought “Gag City” to life in a way that nobody could have predicted.
Pink Friday 2 will be released on December 8, which also happens to be Minaj’s birthday. The singer has already warned that those who have wronged her will “never EVER recover” once they hear the album. Fans can expect a Pink Friday 2 tour to follow shortly after the release, covering cities across North America, the UK, and Europe. This will be Minaj’s first solo headline tour in eight years, following up on 2015-16’s The Pinkprint Tour.
While dates, venues, and general sale information for the tour are yet to be announced, presale tickets will be available on December 13 at 10am local time. For now, fans can continue to immerse themselves in the world of “Gag City” and eagerly await the release of Pink Friday 2.
