A trilha sonora de “Klara and the Sun”, de Taika Waititi, comprova suas credenciais de garoto indie.

Whiskey, 'Widow's Bay' e Johnny Cash: como a trilha sonora 'dark folk' de 'Marvel's Wolverine' se juntou.

Os comentários surgem em meio à nomeação da comentarista política conservadora Katie Zacharia como Secretária de Imprensa da Casa Branca no início deste mês, e sua renúncia após apenas cinco dias, em meio a intenso escrutínio.

Over the weekend, White House Communications Director Steven Cheung shared a video of himself on Air Force One talking to Minaj – who has been outspoken in her support for Trump over the past year.

In the clip, Minaj explains why she is an avid supporter of Trump, describing him as a businessman who has worked his way up to the status of billionaire, and saying that it therefore means he “surely knows what to do” when it comes to the country and its economy.

Ao publicar o clipe no X/Twitter, Cheung brincou que ela estaria apta a trabalhar ao lado dele, escrevendo: “Ladies and gentlemen, I think we may have found the new White House Press Secretary!”.

The rapper also joined Trump at a campaign rally on Sunday afternoon (October 26) in Michigan, where the president gave her a shout-out for attending the event and acknowledged her “beautiful” backside that is “hard to miss”.

After calling on her to speak on-stage, Minaj claimed that Trump has “changed the energy of the country” and “given us a future to look forward to”.

The appearance alongside Trump in Michigan follows the rapper appearing on Fox News’ The Ingraham Angle last month to discuss working with the Trump administration and defend her “love” of the president.

Before then, Minaj was the surprise guest at a Turning Point USA event, where she spoke with Erika Kirk – the widow of murdered political commentator Charlie Kirk.

Naquele evento, realizado em dezembro passado, ela declarou “respect and admiration” pelo “handsome, dashing” Trump antes de criticar o governador da Califórnia, Gavin Newsom.

Ela voltou a atacar Newsom novamente nessa mesma época, dizendo ao potencial candidato presidencial demócrata de 2028 que “ninguém tem sido um defensor mais forte da comunidade LGBT” do que Trump.
