Nicki Minaj’s neighbors want to boot her out of Hidden Hills over concerns about her husband’s criminal history.
Resident Beverly Barden issued a petition called Say No to Sex Offenders in Hidden Hills and is calling for the eviction of Minaj and her husband, Kenneth Petty from the posh neighborhood.
“We, the residents of Hidden Hills, must put our resident’s safety first,” the petition reads. “Don’t wait to receive a letter from the government saying a predator has moved in near you. DO NOT allow this dangerous sex offender to live near you, SHOW that you are against sex offenders in our Hidden Hills neighborhood!”
The couple moved into the home in December of 2022 and reportedly paid a whopping $19.5 million according to TMZ.
The petition started within that same month.
While Minaj is a successful rapper and entrepreneur, the petition claims her husband’s rap sheet could cause the property value of the neighborhood to plummet.
“The Petty couple moving in would lead to (the) appraisal value of our homes to go DOWN due to safety concerns. It would lead to children and women being a target,” it continued.
In July 2022, Petty was sentenced to three years probation and a year of in-home detention after pleading guilty to failing to register as a sex offender in California in 2020.
In December of 2022, Petty was ordered to settle a harassment lawsuit brought on by his alleged sexual assault victim, Jennifer Hough. Petty was convicted of sexually assaulting Hough in 1994. Hough was suing Petty for “infliction of emotional distress, harassment and witness intimidation,” according to court documents obtained by AllHipHop.com.
The petition has a goal of 1,000 signatures. At last check, it has received 931.
Hidden Hills is home to many big names like Kim Kardashian, Kris Jenner, Drake, Will and Jada Smith and Jennifer Lopez.
