NPR decided to get involved in the Jesy Nelson drama last night. The NPR Twitter account posted a tweet that read: "Blackfishing aside, there's a reason Jesy Nelson isn't a household name, our critic writes. With toothless lyrics and vocals reminiscent of a bad Camilla Cabello impression, she commits the cardinal solo career sin - being boring."
However, NPR ended up deleting the tweet, due to them misspelling Camila Cabello's name.
We've deleted a tweet that misspelled Camila Cabello's first name as Camilla.

October 16, 2021 However, the review that the tweet came from is still up and oh boy, is it a doozy. NPR writer Reanna Cruz
manages to drag Jesy and Nicki in a two paragraph review. Some other highlights include:
- "Nelson (you might know her - if nowhere else - from viral "balegdeh" meme fame)"
- "As seen over the past few months, [Nicki Minaj] has done an incredible job of aligning herself with things that are just The Worst."
- "Nelson contributes a nondescript vocal that attempts to invoke the spirit of "Dirrty"-era Christina Aguilera but ends up being a bad Camila Cabello impression"
Shockingly, as of now, Nicki has yet to go on a Twitter rampage
