“How about Nicki Minaj? Do we love Nicki Minaj?” he asked as the crowd cheered. “I love Nicki Minaj. She was here a couple of weeks ago. She’s so beautiful. Her skin… So beautiful.”
Continuing, Trump said, “Her nails are like that long. I said, ‘Nicki are they real?’ She didn’t want to get into that.”
“But she was so beautiful and so great. And she gets it, more importantly, frankly. She gets it,” he said before moving on.
Minaj has recently been vocal about her support for the Republican leader. In December 2025, she said that she “loves” him while joining Erika Kirk at a Turning Point USA event that month.
While at the event, Minaj also made a very awkward comment that made the crowd go silent.
