Overview
- Several Change.org campaigns seeking Minaj’s deportation now exceed 120,000 combined signatures, according to new tallies reported by Rolling Stone.
- The leading petition, created July 9, 2025, has roughly 83,000 signatures, with at least three additional petitions launched between Dec. 21 and 28 following her praise of President Donald Trump and Vice President J.D. Vance at AmericaFest.
- A Dec. 27 petition started by 16-year-old Tristan Hamilton in Chicago has surpassed 41,000 signatures and cites disillusionment among LGBTQ fans.
- Petition language references alleged harassment of Beyoncé and Jay‑Z, mentions her husband Kenneth Petty, and claims deportation would protect American citizens.
- Minaj has not addressed the petitions, her Instagram remains down, and she has not posted on X since Dec. 26, while reporters note Change.org drives do not initiate government action and her citizenship status is publicly unclear.
