Michael B. Jordan is one of those blokes many people have on their celebrity Hall Pass list, alongside Chris Hemsworth and Colin Farrell.
Ever since he walked into our lives as quarterback Vince Howard in Friday Night Lights, fans have been low-key obsessed with him, despite his controversial reputation. Then he went on to star as The Human Torch and Erik Killmonger in Black Panther and the rest is history.
Now Nicki Minaj has publicly proclaimed her love for Michael B. Jordan and we’re shook.
At yesterday’s People’s Choice Awards, Nicki took to the stage to accept her Female Music Artist of 2018 award. As part of her acceptance speech, however, Nicki made a move on MBJ.

Nicki started by thanked the designer of her sexy bondage-inspired dress:
“Shout out to Donatella Versace for custom making this outfit for me,” said Nicki.
Which all sounds tame enough, right? But then things get good. Like, really good.
“…and shout out to Michael B Jordan ‘cos he’s gonna be taking it off of me tonight.”
Welp, we did NOT see that coming.
Twitter also to do a double-take, with fans still processing what just happened:

Nicki went on to raise some less-thirsty points in her acceptance speech, including a shout out to her fellow ‘kweens’ for persevering through their own personal battles.
It’s still unclear whether Nicki and Michael are actually a thing, or if she was just trying her luck. Either way, Nicki’s made her feelings very public, meaning we might be due for a response from Michael aaaaaany minute now.
While Michael B. Jordan definitely isn’t everyone’s favourite celebrity crush, Nicki’s BDE proclamation is definitely a vibe.
