Nicki Minaj Addresses Criticism over Her Support of Donald Trump: "I Just Love Him"

Minaj said she will not apologize for supporting Trump and said her concerts will stay focused on entertainment, not politics.

  • On Friday, Nicki Minaj joined host Laura Ingraham on Fox News' "The Ingraham Angle" alongside Small Business Administration head Kelly Loeffler to discuss the "Million-Dollar Pitch Competition," with conversation quickly turning to her support for President Trump.
  • Nicki serves as a judge for the "Million-Dollar Pitch Competition," which awards five companies a share of $1 million. She said she is honored to work with the administration, describing Trump as smart, fun, and grounded.
  • Agreeing with Ingraham that politics do not belong in concerts, Nicki emphasized her shows focus on fun and making memories rather than lecturing. Her stance follows controversy surrounding Macklemore's pro-Palestine comments during his run with Sheeran.
  • When asked about critics of her partnership with Trump, Nicki replied, "Absolutely nothing." She says she is focused on her "businesswoman era" rather than making excuses for her political support.
  • While fans known as the Barbz await her return to the stage, Nicki clarified she will only hit the road after presenting her next body of work. She will not turn her tour into a political rally.
