Rapper Nicki Minaj is facing the potential loss of her $20 million Hidden Hills mansion in Los Angeles after failing to pay a court judgment of $503,318 stemming from a 2019 lawsuit.
Court documents filed in October reveal that lawyers for Thomas Weidenmüller, the former security chief for Minaj’s 2019 Nicki Wrld Tour, are seeking a court order to sell the property to satisfy the unpaid debt.
The Lawsuit and Unpaid Judgment
The case originates from an incident during the German leg of the tour in 2019. Weidenmüller alleged that Minaj’s husband, Kenneth Petty, assaulted him backstage, resulting in a broken jaw that required extensive surgery.
Weidenmüller claimed he underwent eight surgeries to repair his jaw, which included the insertion of five plates. He filed the lawsuit in 2024, but neither Minaj nor Petty responded to the court, leading to default judgments being issued against them.
The incident reportedly occurred after Minaj threw a shoe at another security operative who failed to prevent a male fan from climbing the stage. Petty allegedly punched Weidenmüller when he attempted to intervene.
Financial Details of the Property
Minaj and Petty’s 11-bedroom mansion is valued at roughly $20 million. Court filings emphasize that Minaj’s estimated net worth, between $150 million and $190 million, makes her fully capable of settling the judgment.
“The property’s fair market value is appraised at $20 million, yielding approximately $6 million in equity beyond the lien and exemption. That amount is more than sufficient to satisfy the judgment, plus accrued interest and enforcement costs,” the documents state.
Despite repeated written requests and levies served to her suspected creditors, Minaj has yet to pay, prompting Weidenmüller’s legal team to push for immediate enforcement of the judgment through the sale of the Hidden Hills property.
