Nicki Minaj opened up about her past addiction to percocet.

According to Nicki, she did not know the prescription pills were addictive.

“No one told me that this was a narcotic and this was addictive,” she told Vogue. “Luckily I was able to ground myself. But — once an addict, always an addict. I feel like if you’ve ever experienced addiction to anything, which I have, you always have to think twice and three times about the choices that you make.”

Nicki says she was not in any pain when she started taking the pills.

“Look at some of our biggest celebrities. They eventually either get laughed out of wanting to go outside anymore, like Michael Jackson, or criticized, like Whitney Houston, or they fight silent battles, like Prince,” she said. “These are some of the greatest of all time. And one day they decided, ‘You know what? I’d rather self-medicate and be in my own world.’”

Nicki says her father also suffered from addiction issues.
