“Nicki Minaj is so attractive,” Donald Trump at an event at the White House.

U.S. President Donald Trump praised rapper Nicki Minaj during a lunch held on Monday in the rose garden at the White House. In a video widely shared on social media, the American president introduced the artist to the guests, highlighting her talent, public support, and fame, before giving her a more personal compliment. “We also welcome a respected and incredibly attractive woman. She’s a tremendous friend, an exceptional person, respected by all, and she has real talent: Nicki Minaj,” said Donald Trump, adding that she was “so attractive.”

The rapper quickly reacted on her X account by sharing several photos from the event. “Wow! #WhiteHouseBarbie with her all-time favorite president!” she wrote. According to the Daily Post, Nicki Minaj had previously shown her support for Donald Trump at an event held in Washington a few months ago. On that occasion, she presented herself as “probably the president’s biggest fan,” claiming she didn’t care about the criticism stemming from her stance.
