Billy Porter Denounces Nicki Minaj Over Pro-Trump Stance at MusiCares Gala

Minaj has recently amplified her support for President Trump at high-profile conservative events.

Overview

  • On Jan. 30 in Los Angeles, Porter said "Fuck her" when asked about Minaj during a red-carpet interview at the MusiCares Person of the Year Gala.
  • He repeated the phrase and added "And all of them! Shame!" as he extended his criticism to the current administration.
  • Minaj recently appeared at a Trump Accounts Summit, promoted a proposed $1,000 tax-advantaged accounts program, and called herself the president's "number one fan."
  • In December, she spoke onstage at Turning Point USA’s AmericaFest, signaling a shift to conservative-aligned platforms.
  • Porter’s comments align with his long-standing opposition to Trump-era policies affecting LGBTQ+ people, and outlets reported no direct response from Minaj to his remarks.
