American rapper Nicki Minaj may lose her $20 million Los Angeles mansion as a court battle over an old assault case has taken a dramatic turn.

Thomas Weidenmüller, a security guard who worked at Minaj’s 2019 concert in Germany, has filed a motion asking the court to sell the rapper’s luxury Hidden Hills property to settle a $503,000 debt.

According to court documents obtained by Page Six, Minaj and her husband, Kenneth Petty, have refused to pay the judgment awarded to Weidenmüller after he accused Petty of assaulting him backstage.

In the new filing, Weidenmüller’s legal team argued that Minaj is “highly capable of paying” the debt but has ignored repeated demands.

The filing stated:

“The property’s current fair market value is $20 million, with nearly $6 million in equity. That amount is more than enough to satisfy the judgment and all legal costs.”

The court papers also noted that the Anaconda rapper, who has an estimated net worth of between $150 million and $190 million, has “refused to pay despite multiple written requests.”

Weidenmüller insisted the pop star should not be allowed to delay the payment any further, saying the assault left him with permanent injuries and huge medical bills.

The altercation reportedly happened during Minaj’s concert in Frankfurt, Germany, in 2019.

Weidenmüller, who was head of security that night, claimed that Minaj berated a female guard for allowing a fan on stage, calling her a “fing bh” while filming the confrontation.

When he intervened to calm the situation, the Super Bass star allegedly threw a shoe at him before her husband, Kenneth Petty, sucker punched him in the jaw.
