A Los Angeles judge is on the verge of selling off Nicki Minaj’s $20 million mansion to pay off a $500,000 judgement debt owed to a security guard.
The security guard had sued the “Barbie World” rapper and her husband over his alleged backstage assault at a concert in Germany.
The mansion in Hidden Hills a gated community in California, USA is currently worth $20m and according to the judge if sold Nicki Minaj would be to pay off the debt and still have enough.
The judge set a follow-up hearing for January 22 to receive the pending paperwork and enter her ruling.
According to reports by Rolling Stone, the plaintiff Thomas Weidenmuller filed his application for the order last month, telling the court he tried to enforce the default judgment through less extreme measures, but Minaj and her husband, Kenneth Petty, have not responded.
The eight-bedroom luxury home has a $13,258,000 mortgage lien, and Minaj, as the sole owner, would be entitled to a $722,151 homestead exemption, the application, obtained by Rolling Stone, said.
There is no doubt that the sale of the dwelling would satisfy the entire judgment, with millions to spare,” the application said. “Although it is regrettable that the extraordinary measure of forcing the sale of Minaj’s dwelling is required, that result is entirely the product of her intransigence in not making payment.”
The application described Minaj as a global music superstar with an estimated net worth of at least $150 million. “There is little doubt that she is highly capable of paying the judgment in full, and yet, she has refused to do so despite multiple written requests for payment and levies served upon several of her suspected creditors,” the filing said.
