From Stage to Politics: Nicki Minaj Reveals Trump “Gold Card

Nicki Minaj has drawn fresh attention after revealing she received a Trump “gold card,” a visa tied to an investment-based pathway toward U.S. residency and citizenship.

The rapper shared images of the card on X following her appearance at a Trump-backed event promoting government-supported investment accounts, where she openly praised President Donald Trump and described herself as “probably the president’s No. 1 fan.”

The gold card, which features Trump’s likeness, is part of an immigration program that requires significant financial contributions and processing fees.

While Minaj did not clarify whether her card was gifted or issued through standard procedures, she later noted that she has held U.S. residency for decades.

Minaj was born in Trinidad and has previously spoken publicly about immigrating to the United States as a child.

Her appearance and remarks added to growing public discussion around the Trump administration’s outreach to high-profile figures and its promotion of investment-driven immigration policies.

Trump, speaking at the same event, returned the praise, calling himself a fan of Minaj and joking about her signature long nail extensions.

The moment has sparked widespread online conversation, blending celebrity culture, politics, and immigration policy.
