00:00Rapper Nicki Minaj could potentially pursue elected office following her recent public

00:04support for Donald Trump, according to comments from a public relations expert.

00:08The 43-year-old artist has drawn attention in recent weeks after appearing at high-profile

00:12events linked to the president, including the Trump Account Summit on January 28 and the

00:17premiere of a documentary focused on Melania Trump in Washington, D.C.

00:20In comments to the Irish star, PR expert Ryan McCormick said Minaj could realistically

00:25consider roles such as councilwoman, mayor, or even a potential member of Congress.

00:30However, he noted that pursuing political office at the height of her music career would be unlikely.

00:34McCormick suggested that Minaj appears motivated by what he described as a moral drive to influence

00:39public discourse and shape issues she cares about. He also stated that entering politics can narrow

00:44a public figure's broad appeal, as taking a political stance often divides audiences.

00:48Despite that, McCormick said Minaj's strong fan loyalty could translate into voter support should

00:54she choose to run for office, arguing that her influence remains significant.

00:57The discussion follows Minaj's recent appearance on a podcast hosted by Katie Miller,

01:02where she addressed her support for Trump. During the interview, she was asked which specific

01:05policy issues resonated most with her, including immigration, economic policy, or religious freedoms.

01:11Minaj responded that religious freedom is important to her, but said her public backing of

01:15Trump was influenced by what she described as repeated negative treatment toward him.

01:20She stated that she identified with claims of bullying and smear campaigns,

01:23saying she felt similar experiences had affected her career over the years.

01:27Her comments and recent appearances have fueled debate about whether her political engagement

01:31signals a deeper shift, or the potential beginning of a future role in public office.
