Palestinian descent DJ Khaled (Khaled bin Abdul Khaled) wears his heart on his sleeves but then his heart is now in the line of fire.

After proposing singer Nicki Minaj on air on MTV, Nicki has filed a restraining order against the big homey Khaled.

Two days ago, DJ Khaled proposed to Nicki Minaj through a videotaped message, which aired on MTV. The rumor mill was in full spin, as fans tried to guess if his request was sincere, or an intricate plot to unveil a new single. Khaled insisted that this was not a game.

While at MTV News on Thursday, July 25, the 37-year-old recorded a special video message to the "Super Bass" singer, confessing his major crush on her.
 
"Nicki Minaj, I’m at MTV, I’m going to be honest with you; I love you. I like you, I want you, I want you to be mine," he said in the video. "Only reason I'm not telling you this face to face is because I understand that you're busy."
 
He continued, "I feel like you need a man like me in your life … we got the same symptoms, we’re both suffering from success. [If] you gotta take your time and think about it, I understand, but I know I have to be here today to let you know how serious I am and how serious this is to me."
 
The hip hop star finished the video with a very public, if not romantic, proposal: "Nicki Minaj, will you marry me?" he asked, flashing a reported $500,000 10-carat ring for the singer.

Although Nicki has yet to respond to Khaled's request, it appears that he is prepared for any outcome.

A news site 366 Hip-Hop reported that Nicki has filed a restraining order in the state of New York against Khaled.

According to reports, this isn’t the first time Khaled has professed his infatuation with Nicki, the DJ has allegedly sent Nicki flowers in the past, as well as random packages, and constantly shows up to her concerts all across the country, according to the report.

As if this story couldn’t get any more bizarre, during an interview with DJ Felli Fel on Power 106 Khaled closed by proposing to Minaj once more, "Nicki Minaj, I love you. Nicki Minaj, will you marry me? I ain’t changing that.”

Looks like DJ Khaled only has eyes for Nicki Minaj.
