Nicki Minaj tweeted the following message about Regis Philbin from ‘Live With Regis and Kelly’ touching her backside and saying “wish I could” after she made a comment about “go hard“!
The incident happened during a Monday, November 29, 2010 taping of the show.
Watch Regis tell Nicki Minaj, “wish I could”… after Nicki talks about Wayne’s advice of going hard. Also, watch Regis pat her backside in the video below: (Skip to the 3:40 mark)

So let me get this str8. a white man can touch a black woman on her ass, in no one say’s nothing. but a black man stops some white bitch from giving a speech in everyone up in arms. only in amerikkka.
obviously african american ^. Your being sterotypical.. these are 2 different situations. I’m not saying want Kanye did wasn’t halarious because it was but Taylor Swift was recieving a award among MILLIONS of viewers and was a huge deal to her. Above is a video of Nikki singing then talking about everything and her new album on the REGIS PHILBIN show. Two completely different situations. You give nikki an award and have Regis interupt it and saying Taylor swift had a better album… you gonna get riots started.
Typical comment.
No, one is a rude interuption and one is sexual harrassment. You’re right, they’re two different situations, and you’re acting like this is okay because it was…what, on a “smaller scale?” Wrong. Rudeness is not illegal, what Regis did IS. It’s different because Nicki is black and that’s all.
