Nicki Minaj

Minaj’s fear of unlocked doors has an upsetting origin. The rapper developed the phobia after witnessing her allegedly abusive father pull her mother from a car. According to the Daily Telegraph, Minaj revealed, “After that I had a phobia about unlocked doors. Anywhere my mother and I were, I made sure the door was locked, because that was my only way to protect her.”
