Nicki Minaj finally gives an explanation as to why she deleted her Twitter account earlier this week. While in London Thursday (April 19), the Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded rapper made an appearance on "The Graham Norton Show," where she divulged the reason for her abrupt exit from the social networking platform.

"A voice in my head told me to delete my Twitter and that's what I did," she admitted. "I had 11 million followers and I hope they will wait for me."

Known to personally interact with her legion of Barbz, the 29-year-old Queens-bred MC opened up about her relationship with fans. "I reply all the time and get to know them by name and I have a really personal bond with them... not all 11 million, but at least 10 of them a day," the "Starships" creator said.

The question on supporters and critics' minds: Will the head Barb make her return to Twitter? "I don't know yet, I'm thinking about it," Minaj revealed. "I miss my Barbz, please bear with me."
