AceShowbiz - Jason Lee has adressed her feud with Nicki Minaj's fanbase which is called the Barbz. In a new interview with HotNewHipHop, Jason Lee spilled the tea on almost everything, including his dramatic beef with them which has been taking place for years.
"Just can't give a f**k, you know," the Hollywood Unlocked host said. Slamming Nicki and the Barbz, he continued, "I mean, like, you just can't get--if you're going to come and kill me because I criticized your song or you being married to a man who's been convicted of rape or murder, and I have criticized moves that you made or uncovered where you lied, or...if your fan base wants to try to do all that, listen, I'm not really worried about that."
"I think that there are innocent people being hurt every day at work, at home, on the bus, in the streets. There are black people being killed for simply being black. So, death, violence, abuse, all that is just a part of life, and it's going to happen," Jason added.
He went on to note, "When it comes to doing my job, I try to stay true to what I believe and true to what I see online. I try to be thoughtful when I speak about it. There are times that I fall short of that and I've been apologetic when I've done it, when I've crossed the line. Very few times."
While sharing that he listens to Nicki's music, Jason didn't declare himself as a Barb. "I'm not a Barb by any measure, thank God, but I do like Nicki Minaj. I think she's one of the many queens of hip-hop, but she's not the only queen," he said. "I think that we have to get to a place where we can set our differences aside, for the sake of the culture moving forward. I know she reached out to me to talk, [but] we never did. And that's okay if we never do but ultimately, one day I hope to sit down and talk to her, too."
Jason angered the Barbz as he often criticized Nicki's personal life, including her marriage to Kenneth Petty, who is a convicted sex offender. He received backlash from the "Anaconda" hitmaker's fans, whom he once called a "terrorist group."
