ICKI MINAJ has officially lost her marbles after waging a war with Megan Thee Stallion — and not just because she looks so good here in the video to her new tune.

Not content with falling out with fellow female rappers Cardi B and Lil Kim, Nicki has now got her claws out again and seems intent on taking Meg down following the release of Hiss.

In the track, which is accompanied by an eye-popping video which these stills are from, Megan refers to the US law which requires law enforcement to alert the public about sex offenders.

That struck a chord because Nicki’s husband Kenneth Petty was previously convicted for attempted rape.

Meg raps: “These hoes don’t be mad at Megan, these hoes mad at Megan’s Law.”

But the seemingly throwaway line caused Nicki to see red, going on Instagram Live to rant and rave about her — mocking an incident in 2020 where she was shot in the foot and badmouthing her late mother.

She then spent every waking minute of the rest of the weekend unleashing a tirade of deluded tweets and revealing she was planning to drop a song called Big Foot late last night, all about Meg.

Nicki is especially furious as she reckons Megan spent years desperately trying to work with her.

That may have been the case for a while, but Nicki isn’t in her golden years anymore.

Meg has retained a dignified silence, even though she did provoke her rival in the first place.

But the sooner Nicki grows up and acts her age, the better.

It’s embarrassing.

THEY are Australia’s two greatest pop exports and now Kylie Minogue and SIA are teaming up.

They have collaborated on a song called Dance Alone, which Kylie showed some love to by putting it on the speakers before her performance at Voltaire in Las Vegas at the weekend.

A music insider said: “Sia called on Kylie to work on Dance Alone and it’s a really anthemic, dance-style track.

“They are good friends and their voices work really well together.

“Dance Alone is coming out next month but Sia allowed Kylie to play it before a show in Vegas and the audience loved it.”

After hearing a snippet myself, I’m not surprised they were so into it.

Although this is the first time they have sung together on a single, Sia was an executive producer on Kylie’s 2014 record Kiss Me Once and helped write tracks including Sexercise.

Kylie previously said of that song: “I actually blushed when I heard the title and thought, ‘Oh, that’s wrong’. But that’s the genius of Sia. She can made it cool and make it hot.

“She was great and someone I admire so much.

“I just think she’s the bee’s knees.”

I’m sure Sia was “buzzing” to be back working with a legend like Kylie.

NOEL GALLAGHER’s High Flying Birds, Snow Patrol, Jamie T and Kaiser Chiefs have been announced as the headliners for Y Not Festival in August.

They will join acts including my indie teen favourites The Kooks, along with The Vaccines, Jake Bugg and Holly Humberstone at the festival in Derbyshire.

SHE’S hoping to score a hat-trick at the Brit Awards by winning in the Dance Act category for a third consecutive year.

But Becky Hill might also be hoping for a quieter night, after admitting her plus-one made a t*t of herself, quite literally, after they drank too much.

Becky said: “Me and my friend last year went and found the tequila bar.

“Then we went and drunkenly smoked cigarettes with someone who worked for Love Island.

“Then we went and got a cab and while there were paps taking pictures of us getting into the car, my friend thought it would be a really good idea to get her tt out – just the one.

“The next day we woke up to ‘Becky Hill’s raucous friend puts on display at the Brit Awards’. We were already in a world of pain with our hangovers.

“I don’t think she got out of bed for three days because she was scared of everybody recognising her.”

AFTER three decades out in the cold, Tom Cruise’s Mission: Impossible franchise has finally been accepted by the snooty Oscars board, with Dead Reckoning Part One landing two nods when nominations were announced last week.

And while the Hollywood star has remained quiet over the prestigious recognition for the series, insiders have told me Tom celebrated his landmark achievement in Florida.

A source said: “Tom was thrilled to learn his team had been shown some love by the Oscars.

“He celebrated with a low key dinner with his family, including his son Connor, in Clearwater, Florida, where Connor lives.

“Tom puts his heart and soul into every Mission: Impossible film so to see them being recognised finally is a massive pat on the back.”

If he wins, I hope he recreates the moment he used Oprah Winfrey’s sofa like a trampoline as he did in 2005.

The week in bizness

WEDNESDAY: The annual Vanity Fair EE Rising Star Baftas pre-party will get the British award season off to a boozy start, with loads of ­famous faces expected at the bash in central London. The nominees for the Rising Star gong include Bridgerton’s Phoebe Dynevor.

THURSDAY: Harry Styles hits the big 3-0 and will no doubt have all eyes on him to see how he celebrates the occasion. Given he is something of a reformed party animal these days, I doubt it will be too raucous.

FRIDAY: The most hyped new band of the year, The Last Dinner Party will release debut album Prelude To Ecstasy. The indie girl band, who count Florence + The Machine among their fans, won the BBC Sound of 2024 poll so I am expecting big things.

SUNDAY: Dua Lipa, Billie Eilish and Olivia Rodrigo will be among the performers at the Grammy Awards in Los Angeles, where SZA leads the pack with nine nominations. It won’t all be about the ladies though as Billy Joel will perform his comeback single Turn The Lights Back On.
