NICKI MINAJ 'STILL WITH DIDDY'

Nicki Minaj has laughed off reports she's abandoned her manager Sean 'Diddy' Combs to work with Benny Medina.

The hip-hop star was said to have parted ways with Combs to join the management roster of music guru Medina, who has helped Jennifer Lopez carve out a singing career.

But Minaj has taken to her Twitter.com page to respond to the speculation.

She writes, "I've never met Benny Medina a day in my life. We (are) good on this side."
