Nicki Minaj sued for damaging the borrowed jewelry

American rapper, Nicki Minaj has been dragged to court over alleged unpaid bills for custom jewellery.

A West Hollywood jeweller, Roseark Jewellery store, is suing the rapper after she damaged some bling they loaned her.

Meanwhile, Nicki’s attorney said she’s not responsible, claiming the jeweller is just using her for publicity.

According to a new lawsuit, Nicki’s stylist, Brett Alan Nelson, signed a contract with Roseark Jewellery Store, with Roseark agreeing to loan Nicki jewellery for a public appearance.

The store also said the contract called for Brett to return the bling within a week and pay for any damages the jewellery might incur under his watch.

However, Nicki’s stylist failed to return 66 pieces of jewellery by the agreed-upon deadline, and, when she finally did, there was noticeable damage to a set of earrings and a leaf ring.

A source close to Nicki told TMZ that everything was returned on time as promised, and it was only after items had been in the jeweller’s possession for some time that the store complained about a missing stone.
