AceShowbiz - Nicki Minaj makes sure her fans, who are famously known as Barbz, know how much she loves them. The "Moment 4 Life" hitmaker surprised her devotees backstage during her ongoing world tour.

The 41-year-old female hip-hop artist has been busy due to her "Pink Friday 2 World Tour". On Wednesday night, September 4, she entertained Barbz at the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia. When she was not performing onstage, she took her time to show up to the VIP lounge of the tour stop.

The rare moment was documented in a series of fan videos that were later shared by a blog via Instagram. In the short clips, it could be seen that she was making her way to the lounge. Once she entered the room, her fans could not help but show their excitement, cheering and screaming out loud.

Nicki was documented showing a heart sign with both of her hands before approaching them to sign merchandise that they brought. She looked in good spirits, flashing her radiant big smiles several times and blowing kisses to them. She also mouthed, "I love you so much."

For the surprise visit, Nicki opted to wear a comfy outfit. She donned a long-sleeved light gray crop sweatshirt and a pair of matching sweatpants. She completed the look with a colorful headpiece and a pair of black sunglasses. She also carried a blue crossbody bag. In addition, she let loose her shoulder-length platinum blonde tresses that she styled in a simple straight hairdo.

It did not take long for the post to be flooded with positive online responses from Instagram users. In the comments section, one in particular praised, "So humble and so gracious. No other celeb treats their fans the way Nicki does and she's actually the originator of using Twitter to communicate with her fanbase. Yall can say whatever but to say she doesn't give back/pour into her fans would be a bold face lie."

Similarly, another chimed in, "She literally is the only artist that engages with their fans to this extent." Meanwhile, a third stressed, "THE HATE ON THE INTERNET NEVER TRANSLATES TO REAL LIFE." A fourth added, "All the viral hate tweets, the hating comments, yet she still has the most successful tour by a female rapper ever...You know why? Because she's actually loved in real life…"
