Nicki Minaj Appears to Delete Instagram Account After Controversial Political Chat With Erika Kirk

Nicki Minaj appears to be going off the grid.

The 43-year-old rapper has seemingly deleted her Instagram account after appearing alongside Charlie Kirk’s widow, Erika Kirk, at Turning Point USA’s AmericaFest convention over the weekend.

When fans of the Pink Friday artist type in the handle @nickiminaj, they are met with the message, “Profile isn’t available. The link may be broken, or the profile may have been removed.”

However, her X account remains active, with her most recent post being a photo dump featuring herself and the Turning Point USA CEO, 37, on stage at the political organization’s recent event.

According to New York Post, Minaj — who is known to have a large LGBTQ+ fanbase — may have lost quite a few social media followers following her interview with Kirk and her recent support of the MAGA movement.

During her chat with Kirk, the Grammy nominee praised President Donald Trump, calling him “handsome” and “dashing,” and saying that he is a “role model.”

Trump, 79, has come under fire in recent days for his insensitive remarks following the murders of famed Hollywood director Rob Reiner and his wife, Michele Singer Reiner. The Apprentice alum made headlines again after he put up plaques in the White House that insult former United States presidents.

“I have the utmost respect and admiration for our president,” the “Anaconda” rapper declared. “I don’t know if he even knows this, but he’s given so many people hope.”

Minaj also called Vice President JD Vance an “assassin” during her interview with Kirk, who brushed off the moment when the rapper appeared to realize her word choice may have been in poor taste. (Kirk’s husband, Charlie, was assassinated in September in broad daylight.)

Vance took to X (formerly Twitter) on Monday to praise the musician.

“Nicki Minaj said something at Amfest that was really profound,” he wrote. “I’m paraphrasing, but she said, ‘just because I want little black girls to think they’re beautiful doesn’t mean I need to put down little girls with blonde hair and blue eyes.’”

“We all got wrapped up over the last few years in zero sum thinking,” he added. “This was because the people who think they rule the world pit us against one another.  @NICKIMINAJ  rejects that. We all should.”
