Starships were meant to fly - but they might struggle to get off the ground if Nicki Minaj is in charge of packing the food supplies.

The US singer and rapper stunned staff in Nando's restaurant after she ordered £3,000 worth of their tasty take-away chicken in one go.

The Trinidadian-born beauty, who is said to be a huge fan of the Portuguese themed eatery, bought enough food to fill en entire car after her gig in Manchester last Thursday.

According to the Daily Star, a source close to the singer claimed she ordered 550 chicken legs, 300 chicken wings and 60 bottles of coke, adding it was enough to fill 'a whole car'.

A spokeswoman for Nando's restaurant confirmed Nicki is a fan. 'A lot of the US artists are fans of Nando’s, like Rihanna,' she said.

A representative of the rapper said she probably had the order prearranged so she wouldn't miss closing time.

The gig finished about 12 and she did a signing after the show. I can't imagine Nando’s would have been open at that time. She was straight off back to America that night,' he said.

'She did a meet and greet thing after the show, and there was some after party that she went to. But I wouldn’t be surprised if she went to Nando's or had a big order from Nando's.'

Nicki's on tour food demands are stuff of legend. For breakfast she has been known to order scrambled egg whites, turkey bacon, toast, Belgian waffles, strawberries, assorted juices and a large fruit platter.

Lunch meanwhile can consist of buckets of spicy fried chicken - no thighs, lot of wings - a large cheese platter, a deli tray filled with cold meats and a set of silverware to help shovel it all down.

This woman is such a freaky looking thing. And her lyrics are discusting, the rubbish people listen to now. That food could have been given to the hungry and poor, but instead she decides to flash her cash just because she has it. What a terrible role model she is
