Nicki Minaj has made most of her fans mad and got slammed on social media because of it. This is after the "Anaconda" singer posted a video on Instagram last Monday, mocking a woman, who is reportedly suffering from  mental illness. 

On the short video, Minaj was obviously holding the camera as she takes the video of the woman, holding a drink in one hand and a cigarette in the other. The woman was heard yelling at Minaj to go away but Minaj laughs and giggles, as reported by Us Weekly.

The woman was obviously mad and was shouting at Minaj, but the "Anaconda" singer did not seem so concerned and was heard laughing and giggling in most of the video duration. The post has already gained more than 11,000 times and most of her Instagram followers do not seem so happy about what Minaj did.

Mirror reports that some of the people who commented on the video say the woman on the video is well-known in the South Beach area of Miami. Some even said that the woman is known to be suffering from a mental illness.

The Instagram post got the "Anaconda" singer's fans outraged saying that Minaj's actions on the video were insensitive. Some also said that it is inappropriate to share since it may imply to the rapper's young followers that it is okay to bully and humiliate people.

Wendy Williams shared the same opinion on Minaj's post, saying that the "Starships" singer needs to be sensitive to people like the woman on the video. Williams also called the "Anaconda" singer an "insensitive b*tch" for mocking the woman.

The video, which is already viewed 2 million times according to Yahoo!, reports that the National Alliance on Mental Illness has released their view on the video, saying that no person should make fun on cancer patients and people suffering from mental illnesses.

Meanwhile, amidst the negative comments the "Anaconda" singer has been getting for posting the video, the post has not been removed yet from her account. Minaj also has not yet released any statement regarding the issue.
