Nicki Minaj Urges Young Voters to 'Vote Red' Ahead of Midterms
Minaj told younger Americans to participate in the midterms and backed Republicans as Fox News promoted her interview ahead of the full broadcast.
- On Saturday, Musician Nicki Minaj urged Americans to "vote red" during a Fox News interview with Lara Trump, emphasizing that younger voters must use their influence in the upcoming midterm elections.
- Minaj criticized Democrats as "petty and childish," claiming the party has "gotten way too caught up in pop culture" and allowed relationships with artists to negatively influence their political behavior.
- Critics noted the Caribbean-born star cannot cast a ballot herself, remaining "an illegal immigrant" from Trinidad and Tobago, though Minaj stated earlier this year she is "finalizing" citizenship paperwork after receiving a Trump Gold Card.
- The interview drew backlash over criminal records of her family members, including husband Kenneth Petty and brother Jelani Maraj, with Petty having served "seven years in prison after pleading guilty to manslaughter in 2006."
- This appearance marks the latest in Minaj's growing political engagement, following her endorsement of Republican Rep. Byron Donalds for Florida governor, as her alignment with MAGA has sparked debate about her electoral influence.
