Nicki Minaj did not mince words while defending her husband Kenneth Petty.

The 36-year-old rapper spoke out against Wendy Williams on a radio show Friday (November 1), slamming the talk show host for her previous comments about Kenneth, who she called a "killer" and a "sex offender."

"There are people who report the news and there are people who do it with an evil intent in their heart, viciousness. And I pray for you because I know you're hurting and I know you must be sick and humiliated," Nicki began, referring to Wendy's split from her husband Kevin Hunter.

The Grammy nominee went on to address Kenneth's criminal history, saying, "I didn't know that in our society, you have to be plagued by your past. I didn't know that people can't turn over a new leaf."

Nicki then called out Wendy directly, bringing up the fact that the 55-year-old talk host's estranged husband welcomed a baby with his alleged longtime mistress while he and Wendy were married.

"I didn't know that your viciousness and evilness was this deep-rooted," the "MEGATRON" rapper said. "When a woman isn't really being loved at home, the viciousness is a different type. So I really wanted to pray for you today, because look at where you are now in your life. Look at what age you are. You're sat up there being vicious all this time, and paid for that man's mistress all these years. You paid for her shopping sprees, you paid for her hotels, you probably even paid for her GYN bills, you paid to have that baby delivered, h*e."

"How you doin', stupid?" Nicki added, mocking Wendy's signature catchphrase.

"I know we're human first, we're human before we're celebrities, we're human before we're personas," the Queens native continued. "And I know you must have gone through a lot. But you are demonic, and that's why this stuff unfolded. If I were you, I would go and pray, ask for forgiveness. You can report the news—people do it all the time—without the level of viciousness and trying to play dumb and doing all this nonsense."

As fans know, Kenneth is a registered sex offender (he was convicted of first-degree attempted rape in April 1995) and he was previously convicted of first-degree manslaughter, which he served seven years in prison for. However, Nicki defended her husband's past on Friday, saying he was wrongfully accused of rape and that his alleged victim tried to recant her statement against him.

"And when the alleged accuser wrote a letter to the judge asking to recant the statements she was told that she would go to jail for 90 days, allegedly, if she recants the statement, " the "Good Form" rapper claimed. She added that Kenneth's rape charge stemmed from a consensual relationship in his teens.
