Nicki Minaj recently made headlines with her scathing comments about California Governor Gavin Newsom’s White House dreams. Taking to her X account with a following of 25 million, Minaj didn’t hold back as she mocked Newsom’s support for trans kids, stating, “Imagine being the guy running on wanting to see trans kids. Haha. Not even a trans ADULT would run on that. Normal adults wake up & think they want to see HEALTHY, SAFE, HAPPY kids.”
In a bold move, Minaj referred to Newsom and his followers as “The Gav Nots” and dismissed his presidential aspirations with a sense of boredom, proclaiming, “Send in the next guy, I’m bored.” She even went as far as to taunt Newsom directly, predicting his downfall in a playful yet cutting manner, “Oh Gavvy pooh, it only gets worse from here for you, buddy. It’s the end of the road for you, my love. Get on the nearest jet ski & let that beautiful hair blow in the wind. It will make you happier than this race that you will not win. Enjoy life. Peace.”
Drawing a comparison between Newsom and actor Tom Cruise, Minaj suggested that Newsom’s charm and looks may not be enough to secure him a place in the White House. She quipped, “Gavin is the cute boy who got everything handed to him b/c of how cute & sexy & hot & smoking he was. Oohhh look @’m. Sitting there in that suit with the sneakers on. He thinks he’s Tom Cruise only difference is, his next mission IS impossible. He should get another leading role.”
Minaj’s bold and unapologetic commentary on Newsom’s political ambitions has sparked controversy and divided opinions among her fans and followers. With her unique blend of humor and criticism, she continues to make waves in the world of politics and entertainment.
