Nicki Minaj flexes her “Gold Card” after spending the day at the Oval Office.

On Wednesday, the Queen rap icon took to X to post President Donald Trump’s controversial “Gold Card.” The card is a a luxury pathway to fast-tracked U.S. citizenship that reportedly requires “a $1 million gift upon completion of the individual’s vetting is evidence that the individual will substantially benefit the United States. An individual may also need to pay small, additional fees to the U.S. Department of State depending on his or her circumstances.” To apply, the applicant must first “pay a nonrefundable, $15,000 DHS processing fee,” per the Trump Gold Card website.

Minaj took to twitter to flex her new gold card, with the caption, “Welp.” She later clarified those who perceived the card to signify her residence. “Finalizing that citizenship paperwork as we speak as per MY wonderful, gracious, charming President,” said the “Starship” rapper. “Gold Trump card free of charge.”

The post came just hours after Minaj appeared alongside Trump during a summit to promote his new initiative, “Trump Accounts.” The program is designed to create tax-advantaged investment accounts for U.S. citizens under 18. The New York Post reports that her contributions could mean investments between $150,000 and $300,000 to her fans to help set up baby “Barbz” accounts.

During the event, Minaj went as far as calling herself “probably the president’s number one fan.”

Prior to the gold card, Minaj was a legal permanent resident, who moved to the U.S. from Trinidad and Tobago as a child. Despite being one of the highest-taxpaying artists in music, she revealed in 2024 that she is not a U.S. citizen.
