On November 1st, she posted a thank you to Trump for highlighting the plight of Christians in the region, saying she felt “a deep sense of gratitude” for his stance. Her remarks, shared across X and mirrored by PopCrave and PinkNews, instantly set social media ablaze, especially given her massive LGBTQ+ following.

Nicki responded in a series of since-deleted posts, emphasizing empathy for persecuted Christians while reassuring her support for LGBTQ+ rights, stressing, “I’ll advocate for you the same way that I’m advocating for murdered Christians in Nigeria.” Political wires lit up again after the White House posted Trump’s video—featuring Nicki—on TikTok, propelling her name into trending territory and sparking even more heated debate online.
