NICKI MINAJ: Claps Back at Trevor Noah
Written by Ariel Newbold on February 2, 2026
Nicki Minaj is clapping back at Trevor Noah after winding up the butt of one of of his jokes last night (Sunday). 
In case you missed it, during an opening monologue, the Grammy Awards host made a crack about how Nicki was not in attendance because she’s actually busy having a private meeting at the White House with President Trump. The South African comic then launched into a Trump impression, joking about the POTUS arguing with Nicki over who has the biggest booty. The line got big laughs from celebs in attendance like Chrissy Teigen, who was spotted flashing a thumbs up.
Nicki caught wind of the moment and responded with a joke of her own — if you can call it that. She posted “Trevor refuses to come out the closet when everyone in the industry knows his boyfriend… allegedly” alongside some vintage pictures of Jay-Z from ’96 and ’97. She also included a photo where she’s wearing a MAGA-style message hat, except in pink, and with the words, “Nicki was right about everything.”
