Nicki Minaj made an unexpected appearance in New Hampshire on Election Day, drawing attention after being spotted outside a polling location in the town of Derry.
According to NBC 10, the rapper was escorted by police to an appearance outside Pinkerton Academy, where she took part in a brief photo opportunity as people gathered nearby.
During the visit, Minaj reportedly exchanged a few words with a woman in the crowd who thanked her for touring with President Donald Trump. The rapper was later led away from the location and into an unmarked tour bus.
Minaj’s appearance added another celebrity moment to Election Day in the swing state, with several other well-known personalities reportedly spotted in New Hampshire.
Among them were former NFL stars Rob Gronkowski and Danny Amendola, boxing legends Mike Tyson and Floyd Mayweather.
Nicki Minaj’s Support for Trump
Minaj’s appearance comes amid her increasingly visible public support for Donald Trump.
The rapper has previously drawn attention for her pro-Trump comments and public interactions with the president. Her name has also been floated as a possible candidate for the role of White House press secretary.
Trump addressed the possibility during an appearance on The Benny Show, saying he thought it could be a good idea but would need to give it some consideration.
Her latest New Hampshire appearance has therefore added another chapter to the intersection of her celebrity profile and political involvement.
While the visit took place outside a polling location, the source report does not establish that Minaj voted there or specify whether she was participating in an official campaign activity.
For a rapper whose music has produced hits such as Super Bass, Election Day provided an unexpected public appearance — this time away from the stage and near the ballot box.
