Nicki Minaj was the ultimate diva guest, demanding to know the sacred Plead the Fifth questions before the show and demanding the audience to stop taking pictures of her.

He left the show that night feeling "upset."

After Cohen canceled on attending a fashion event with pal Naomi Campbell, the notorious diva model blew off his show last minute, he claims.
