Back in July, the 38-year-old said on Twitter that she wanted to host *The Real Housewives of Potomac*‘s season 6 reunion in lieu of the Big Daddy of Bravo, Andy Cohen. Months later Nicki’s wish came true when she showed up on set at the RHOP season 6 reunion, where she took over the hosting duties for a portion of the day. Now a source tells *HollywoodLife* that the rapper *"came hard"* for RHOP star Candiace Dillard. *“She came hard for Candiace [Dillard] and read her,”* a source close to production told [HollywoodLife](https://hollywoodlife.com/2021/10/11/nicki-minaj-rhop-reunion-candiace-dillard-instagram-video/). *“It was an epic moment.”* Gizelle Bryant teased on social media that Nicki's surprise appearance *“was [fire].”* However, it turns out the ladies had no idea that Nicki would be popping up until she walked into the room that day. *“Nicki showed up around 9:15 p.m. and none of the ladies knew she was there,”* the source said. *“They were so shocked when she walked out.”* *“They knew it was a possibility,”* the source added. *“But her appearance was saved for the very end as a total surprise.”* It turns out Nicki did her research before taking over hosting duties for the reunion. She reportedly enlisted the help of her fans — including one fan who she affectionately calls “The Barbz” for some hard-hitting questions. *“She asked the ladies 3 or 4 questions that were sent to her from The Barbz into her DMs off social media,”* the source also spilled. After the above report made headlines, Nicki confirmed that she *"went hard"* for Candiace at the reunion. *“I saw something that said I went hard on Candiace … yes, I think went on hard on everybody equally,”* the 38-year-old said. *“They’re tough girls on that show.”* She continued, *“I normally know who I can be like that with and I can tell they’re tough enough to allow me to be tough on them. I went for the jugular with them. Not in a bad way … I just know if I went there and didn’t ask about the sh*t my fans wanna know, they’re gonna look at me crazy like, why the f*ck did you go there if you weren’t really going to get into some things? I had to get into some things. You guys are going to be thoroughly entertained.”* *“If you haven’t been binge-watching the season — go. It’s one for the books,”* Nicki added in her IG live video. *“I’m not trying to be funny. It’s iconic and you’re going to love it. The women were all so very charming in person. I could see why they got chosen to be on the show.”* *The Real Housewives of Potomac* airs on Sundays at 8 p.m. ET on Bravo. ## Thoughts on this all?
