Trevor Noah Jokes About Nicki Minaj–Trump Connection at Grammys

Trevor Noah drew laughs at the Grammy Awards with a pointed joke about Nicki Minaj’s recent political spotlight.

Opening the 68th Grammys in Los Angeles on Sunday night, Noah noted Minaj’s absence from the ceremony, joking she was instead at the White House with President Donald Trump.

The remark referenced Minaj’s recent appearance at a Treasury Department summit promoting new “Trump Accounts,” where she publicly praised the former president and called herself his top supporter.

Minaj later responded to Noah’s joke on social media, keeping the exchange in the public eye.
