Trinidadian rapper and singer Nicki Minaj recently extended her support towards Noah Lyles’ girlfriend Junelle Bromfield after the Jamaican sprinter confessed to encountering cyberbullying. Bromfield admitted to coming across color-based discrimination.
Bromfield has represented Jamaica at multiple international competitions. She clinched a bronze medal for the squad in the 4x400m relay race at the 2020 Tokyo Games. The 26-year-old recently opened up on facing intense backlash over her color and appearance.
“I grew up hearing black is not beautiful,” she wrote in an Instagram post. “Your hair is dry, your mouth is too big, your forehead too high and when you throw all those insults behind you and start walking with confidence the best compliment you get is your pretty for a black girl. I honestly thought we were past colorism in Jamaica, especially as a nation that is filled with black people.

“I have been getting cyberbullied for weeks and when it gets talked about I’m a liar because no Jamaican was coming for my features. I could go off ranting but I’m just here to tell all the girls/ women on my profile that you’re beautiful no matter your shade, shape or size and for the little black girls – don’t wait on anybody to tell you that you’re beautiful to believe it.”
The rapper rallied for the Jamaican sprinter by sharing a picture from the latter’s Instagram profile, where she featured a verse from Minaj’s song “I’m Getting Ready,” a collaboration with Tasha Cobbs Leonard.
