The news of the missing submarine and the rescue operation has prompted widespread discussion and debate on social media, with a whole host of celebrities joining in to share their views.

But 40-year-old Nicki’s fans were quick to raise their eyebrows over the comments she made about the missing 21ft vessel which should have safely returned after an eight-hour trip to the Titanic shipwreck.

Speaking on her radio show Queen Radio, the Anaconda rapper said: “No one should be able to hop on a submarine, talkin’ about they going down to look at the Titanic.”

Speaking of the estimated figure it is thought the passengers paid for the experience, Nicki continued: “Do you know how some people work their whole life and can’t save up $250,000?

“And you took $250,000 to hop on a submarine to go see a ship that mostly everybody died on.”

The singer added that she was “keeping all five passengers in my prayers and wishing all the best to search and rescue teams”.

Another added: “She just be putting her input anywhere where it don’t concern her.”

However, others saw her point of view, with one person writing: “She ain’t wrong. I don’t know why people have to see this in person. Hopefully they find the submarine and everyone is safe. But let this be a lesson learned not to go down there for a ‘tour’.”

Someone else said: “She’s right. Like who would think that’s a good idea lmao.”

Meanwhile, rescue workers are continuing the hunt for the missing Titanic submersible, but the oxygen supply onboard was predicted to have run out at 12.08pm on Thursday with five stuck inside.
