Nicki Minaj, who has embraced the MAGA movement, will be attending this year’s White House Correspondents’ Dinner, also known as the “nerd prom” in Washington, D.C., this Saturday.
The rapper will be a guest of Fox News, Page Six hears. She’ll also attend the network’s VIP cocktail party at the Washington Hilton before the event, rubbing elbows with Turning Point USA’s Erika Kirk.
Minaj, 43, has recently become more public about her politics than ever before.
She appeared on stage with Kirk at Turning Point USA’s AmericaFest in December and proclaimed her support for Trump.
“I have the utmost respect and admiration for our president,” Minaj said at the event.
In January, she attended Trump Accounts Launch Summit in Washington D.C. where she clasped hands with the president.
Retired NASA astronaut Butch Wilmore and new Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin are also on the Fox News guest list, along with on-air talent including Bret Baier, Martha MacCallum, Harris Faulkner, Shannon Bream, Steve Doocy and more.
Fox News Media CEO Suzanne Scott and network president and executive editor Jay Wallace will also attend.
Trump will return to this year’s dinner after a more than decade-long boycott.
Mentalist Oz Pearlman is the headline entertainer and WHCA president and CBS News White House correspondent Weijia Jiang will deliver remarks.
There are plenty of parties surrounding the main event, including ones hosted by MS Now and NBC.
“Fantastic Four” star Michael Chiklis will chair a dinner for the Creative Coalition at PubKey in DC.
Talent agency UTA, Oliver Darcy’s Status, Puck, YouTube, Crooked Media and even LGBTQ dating app Grindr are also hosting parties.
