U.S. President Donald Trump praised Nicki Minaj's "beautiful" bottom during a bizarre speech at a rally in Michigan on Sunday.
The Starships rapper, who is a vocal supporter of the U.S. leader, joined Trump on his plane, Air Force One, and on stage at the pre-midterms rally in Port Huron.
During his speech, Trump made cheeky comments about Minaj's rear end as he explained his recent remarks about Republican Ohio senator Jon Husted's derriere.
"By the way, I looked at one ***** of a beautiful a*s before - Nicki Minaj," Trump said, as the crowd cheered. "That's hard to miss. That - stand up! That's hard to miss."
Minaj stood up and turned around to face the audience. After she sat back down, Trump continued, "OK, I'm going to get back to my story, Nicki. I hope Nicki wasn't insulted, but we love Nicki. She's been with us for a long time."
Earlier in the rally, the Pound the Alarm singer pledged her continued support of Trump, telling him that it is an "honour to stand with you every single time" and that he will have her backing "forever and ever".

Rapper Nicki Minaj publicly endorsed US President Donald Trump at a Republican campaign rally in Port Huron, Michigan, on Sunday, 25 October, ahead of the November midterm elections. After travelling aboard Air Force One, the Trinidadian-born artist joined him on stage, telling the crowd "We love Trump" and promising to support him "forever".
Nicki Minaj's increasingly public support for Donald Trump represents a notable political shift for a rapper whose provocative performances and **** ually explicit lyrics have often sparked controversy.
In 2020, she had criticised his administration's strict immigration policies, particularly the separation of children from their parents at the US border. More recently, however, she has appeared at events **** ociated with his presidency.
The Michigan rally also featured renewed attacks by Trump against Abdul El-Sayed, the Democratic candidate for the US Senate. The president questioned El-Sayed's loyalty to the United States, allegations the former public health official has repeatedly rejected.
Trump's remarks came as Republicans campaigned ahead of the midterms, with Minaj's appearance adding a prominent celebrity endorsement to the event. A video shared by White House communications director Steven Cheung also showed the rapper joking about becoming the administration's press secretary.

McKenna Woods (ken_hairstylist), a hairstylist from Iowa, told TikTok about her allegedly disruptive client. Throughout his hair appointment, Woods said he had been making inappropriate comments and then using his supposed autism as an excuse.
Woods responded to a viral clip of her client, Chris, which accused her of being rude and mean. He also told others not to seek her services. Woods replied on TikTok, "I think this guy came in here thinking he's high and mighty because he's this upcoming rapper, a content creator."
Woods claimed she made small talk with her client, asking him how many followers he had on social media. She clarified that her issue wasn't his follower count but his alleged behavior in the salon. The hairstylist continued, "My problem is the way he acted in here, while my coworker had a client in here who is nine years old."
In a clip stitched to her TikTok, the nine-year-old can be overheard addressing Woods' client, saying, "Do you realize she has a boyfriend?" The client replied, "I'm not doing that. I'm just being autistic."
"And he's rapping. He's being very disruptive, being very disrespectful, making these comments about how he's autistic," Woods added. She alleged he was using his supposed condition to justify his behavior. In addition to comments about his mental health, Woods said he also made an inappropriate remark to her.

Megan Thee Stallion had one tiny problem while filming with Daniel Radcliffe: She kept seeing Harry Potter. The rapper admitted she struggled to separate Radcliffe from his iconic role while filming NBC's The Fall and Rise of Reggie ****** ins.
The unexpected fangirl moment came during a packed year for Megan. Alongside her acting work, she made her Broadway debut, navigated a breakup, and continued shaping her delayed Act III album.
Megan discussed the experience in a new interview with Marie Claire. She played Denise, a divorced mail carrier who developed a flirtation with Radcliffe's documentary filmmaker character, Arthur Tobin. "I was on that set, calling that man Harry Potter all day," Megan admitted.
Radcliffe apparently took the teasing well. Megan said their easy friendship helped create their chemistry onscreen. "Daniel made me feel so, so, so comfortable," she said. "We were literally talking and joking the whole time. I think that's why the chemistry was so good." Radcliffe returned the compliment, praising Megan's willingness to jump into acting. "We were honestly so lucky to get Megan to be on the show," he said.
He added that guest stars of her stature usually took longer to join established shows. Radcliffe called her "a total pro, a delight to work with, and really ****** funny." The role added another credit to Megan's expanding acting résumé. She also appeared in She-Hulk: Attorney at Law, Big Mouth, ****** s: The Musical and Mean Girls.

Kellon Deryck will never forget the day he met Megan Thee Stallion. It was 8 years ago, and the celebrity hairstylist was trying to keep it professional on his first job with the rapper. But Megan wasn't having it, he recalls, laughing.
"I'm normally pretty shy when I first meet someone, so the first day we worked together, I was quiet; I was just there to do my job," he explains. "She **** near tickled me into laughing and talking like, 'Who is this up in here? Who are you?' She made me show my personality. She pulled it out of me." And from that day forward, they were inseparable.
"Even when we're not at work, we're on FaceTime talking about what we're about to do next or how our night was, what we ate, and what TikTok we're about to do, and what food we want to try," says Deryck. "We literally do everything together."
Megan Thee Stallion on InStyle's September 2026 cover, hair styled by Kellon Deryck
The Boston-born, Atlanta-bred hair pro has been behind some of Megan's most unforgettable hair moments, from 2025's Met Gala, for which he crafted an artful, architectural copper-red ponytail inspired by Josephine Baker, to the towering, out-of-this-world sculptural updo he molded for InStyle's September cover. "I always know what story she's trying to tell with her hair," Deryck explains. And over the years, he and Megan, ever the hair chameleon, have done nearly "every kind of look." Their résumé runs the gamut from candy-colored finger waves and Marie Antoinette poufs to jet-black clouds of curls, glossy flipped bobs, Old Hollywood waves, and Rapunzel-length tumbles. His work has even made its way into Megan's lyrics: In "Don't Stop," she raps, "40-inch weave by Kellon, don't tangle."

Kanye West is reportedly planning to seek help from Blake Lively to take revenge on Taylor Swift. West and Swift's feud dates back to 2009, when he grabbed the microphone from her as she accepted her award at the MTV VMAs. Although he later apologized, it seems the tension has not fully faded. The rapper is reportedly still determined to get back at the pop icon.
Kanye West is reportedly trying to get Blake Lively on board to seek "revenge" on Taylor Swift. For the unversed, at the MTV Video Music Awards in 2009, Swift won the award for Best Female Video. When she went onto the stage to accept the award, West unexpectedly stormed the stage. He took the microphone from her hands. On stage, he said that he believed Beyoncé had one of the best videos of all time.
The two later reconciled, but in 2016, West took another dig at Swift. He released the song, "Famous," which featured controversial lyrics about the "Opalite" hitmaker. Years later, it seems the feud is not over, as Star reports that the rapper is seeking revenge on her. The report says that he also wants Lively to help him with his plan.
A source said, "He genuinely believes that Blake's going to see this as an opportunity that's too good to pass up." However, it's not that easy to contact the Gossip Girl star. Hence, the "All Falls Down" hitmaker has reportedly been trying to contact people in her circle so that he can get in touch with her.
Even though Lively and Swift were once best friends, the two have reportedly fallen apart. This happened after Swift's name came up in the legal battle involving Lively and Justin Baldoni. West allegedly believes that since Lively has fallen out with Swift, she may be willing to help him with his plan.

Kanye West's long-running feud with Taylor Swift isn't over yet, says a source, who claims the rapper is now hoping to recruit Blake Lively to get revenge on the singer.
"He genuinely believes that Blake's going to see this as an opportunity that's too good to pass up," spills the source. "It's not as though he can just call her up — she has layers of people that you need to get through before you can talk to her — so he's been hitting up everyone in her orbit to try and get in touch."
Swift, 36, and West's bad blood dates back to 2009, when he crashed her acceptance speech at the MTV VMAs, apologized for it and then later took his mea culpa back.
While the two eventually put their differences aside, the drama picked back up in 2016 after he released the song "Famous" — featuring controversial lyrics about Swift — and its corresponding, equally provocative video.
The "Gold Digger" hitmaker, 49, "is convinced that Taylor is the real reason he's an outcast in America," spills Star's source. "He blames her for everything that's gone wrong with his career, so the more success she has, the more bitter and angry he gets."

"He genuinely believes that Blake's going to see this as an opportunity that's too good to pass up," spills the source. "It's not as though he can just call her up — she has layers of people that you need to get through before you can talk to her — so he's been hitting up everyone in her orbit to try and get in touch."

With the amount of information available on the internet, it can sometimes be difficult to keep up. Nya (nyaajadee) faced a similar problem when she helped her boyfriend purchase a thrifted shirt for work and later learned that the brand that made the shirt, Sean John, was owned by none other than rapper Sean "Diddy" Combs.
For those wondering why Combs' ****** ociation with the brand is controversial, he is currently incarcerated at the Fort Dix Federal Correctional Institution. He is serving a 50-month prison sentence following a criminal conviction in October 2025 for transporting individuals across state lines for prostitution.
So how did Nya learn about the shirt's controversial nature? In a TikTok video, she said that when her boyfriend wore it to the restaurant bar where he works, his colleagues started to laugh at him. "They were like, ****** , dude, a Sean John shirt? Like, you're kind of crazy," Nya said, recounting what his co-workers told him. Nya also shared that her boyfriend repeatedly asked them questions, as he was unaware of what was happening before finally realizing that Sean John was Diddy's clothing brand.
Nya said that after some back and forth, her boyfriend eventually realized that Sean John was Diddy's clothing brand. "We didn't know it was f****** Diddy. I didn't. I knew Diddy. I thought Diddy had pants. Just pants. I knew Diddy had pants. I didn't know he had shirts, too. But also, I didn't know that his clothing company was called Sean John," Nya said. She added, "So I helped my boyfriend pick out a Diddy shirt. What did Sean John do? What did Sean John not do?"
Turns out some people in the comments were as unaware as Nya about Diddy's clothing brand, despite knowing about his criminal conduct. One person wrote, "I didn't even know he made clothes." Another individual reacted similarly and said, "I guess I'm one millennial that was left out the loop lol because I didn't actually know his name other then his stage name, also did not know he had a clothing line."

Nicki Minaj has taken aim at the Democratic Party by alleging that the political party has become infatuated with "pop culture."
On Saturday morning (September 26), Fox News shared a teaser clip of the Pink Friday 2 rapper's sit-down interview with Lara Trump, the wife of President Donald Trump's third child, Eric Trump.
In the last year, Minaj has pivoted from music to politics by exhibiting a full show of support for Donald Trump, largely in opposition of Gavin Newsom. Minaj has alleged that the California governor turned a blind eye to her Los Angeles home being swatted multiple times.
"I think the Democrats have gotten way too caught up in pop culture, for lack of a better term," Minaj said in the clip below.

Rick Ross' attorney brought up his client's celebrity status while asking for a quick release from custody. The judge made it clear that fame would not change how she treated him. The rapper appeared by video before Miami-Dade Judge Mindy Glazer on Thursday following his arrest on domestic violence-related battery charges. When his lawyer requested an expedited release for safety reasons, Glazer responded that she had "no idea" who Ross was. Ross has pleaded not guilty and maintains his innocence.

Attorney Steve Sadow identified Ross by his legal name, William Leonard Roberts II, while asking the judge to speed up his release. "Mr. Roberts is a celebrity. I don't know to whatever degree Your Honor can, but I'd ask that his release be expedited," Sadow said.
The attorney argued that a faster release would be in his client's best interest. Glazer addressed Ross directly in her response. "Hi Mr. Roberts. I have no idea who you are, except as somebody here in the court who's going to be treated fairly, just like everybody here," she said.
Ross had been booked around 6:10 a.m. Thursday before making his video appearance. His bond was set at $4,000 for the felony battery by strangulation charge and $1,000 for the misdemeanor battery charge.

Disgraced music mogul Sean "Diddy" Combs isn't exactly living a bare-bones life in prison, according to a report from NBC News published Tuesday.
The rapper has allegedly set up a cushy lifestyle inside New Jersey's Fort Dix correctional institution, where he has fellow inmates catering to his basic needs and is said to have access to contraband liquor and a cellphone.
Culture: Sean 'Diddy' Combs Sentenced To 4 Years In Prison For Prostitution Charge
"This is not some normal **** you see in jail," a man who lived in the same unit as Combs at the low-security prison told NBC News. "This is some rich ****. It looks crazy, but again, it's Diddy."
The Bad Boy Records boss, who is serving a 50-month sentence for prostitution-related offenses, reportedly pays men to cook for him, make his bed and do his laundry, in addition to someone who gives him what NBC described as "Chinese-style massages."
