Why I stopped going to church – Nicki Minaj

Popular American rapper and singer Nicki Minaj has shared personal details about her spiritual journey, revealing why she stopped attending church after rising to fame and success in the entertainment industry.

The award-winning music star made the disclosure during a recent appearance on The Bryce Crawford Podcast, where she reflected on the changes that came with her growing celebrity status and the challenges of balancing faith with life in the spotlight.

She explained that she didn’t stop going to church because of an ideological change but because she always performs at weekends, which leaves her too exhausted to attend church on Sundays.

“Once my career started taking off, I stopped going to church. I was working on Friday nights and Saturday nights, so the last thing I could do was wake up on Sunday mornings to go to church,” she said.

Minaj explained that despite quitting church, she still has a good relationship with God.

She, however, admitted that she struggles with being consistent in her relationship with God but keeps striving to be better.

She added that her faith keeps increasing over time as she continues to grow spiritually.
