Overview
Trinidad and Tobago-born rapper Nicki Minaj declared herself to be Donald Trump's "number one fan" on Wednesday, while also showing off her Trump "gold card" visa, which offers applicants residency and a path to US citizenship.
The US President called the star up on stage in Washington DC after she announced her support for the so-called "Trump Accounts", which provide trust funds for children.
Previously a critic of Trump's hardline immigation policies, Minaj, who came to the US with her parents as a child, has praised his leadership in recent years.
It comes at a time of protests after Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents were involved in the fatal shootings of US citizens.
