Nicki Minaj Donates $25, 000 to Former Cosby Show Actor Geoffery Owens
The show of solidarity and support continues to pour in for actor Geoffrey Owens who was excessively job-shamed for working at a Trader Joe’s grocery store between acting gigs.
The Cosby Show star who played Elvin Tibideaux on popular American family TV series from 1985-92 has been overwhelmed with support and even offered a job by Tyler Perry since his photos taken by a shopper Karma Lawrence went viral.
And on Thursday, rapper Nicki Minaj also offered her support to the actor — saying she wants to give him $25,000.
“This man is a whole f—— legend,” the Nicki said during her latest episode of Queen Radio on Beats 1. “That man is now getting so many opportunities, I personally want to donate $25,000.”
Minaj also berated Lawrence, who took Owens’ photo at a Trader Joe’s in New Jersey where he was bagging groceries.
She called Lawrence a “stupid f—,” accusing her of “trying to embarrass this hardworking man.
