Donald Trump praised Nicki Minaj at a rally in Michigan

During a rally in Port Huron, Michigan, Donald Trump praised Nicki Minaj’s appearance, stating that she has a «beautiful figure». The 80-year-old president made this remark on October 25, adding that «it's hard not to notice», - and asked the singer to stand so the audience could see her. In response to his words, the crowd applauded, and the camera captured the moment when Minaj stood up and waved to her fans.

This event occurred shortly after Minaj, who has long supported the Trump administration, was mentioned as a potential candidate for the position of White House press secretary. Communications Director Stephen Cheung posted a video of Minaj praising the president’s achievements. He captioned the clip: «Ladies and gentlemen, it looks like we found the new White House press secretary!»

At the rally, Minaj also expressed her support for Trump, noting that he «gave us a future to hope for», - and added that he «changed the energy» in the country. In response, Trump said that she «never looked so beautiful» and praised her intelligence.

Earlier that same day, Minaj shared footage from Air Force One, where she met with Cheung before the rally. In September, she also spoke about her support for Trump in an interview on Fox News, stating that he inspires many people and is easy to talk to.
