Nicki Minaj Is Still Not A US Citizen Despite Her Best Efforts

Nicki Minaj says she still doesn’t have United States citizenship, despite moving to the country from Trinidad and Tobago as a child. Discussing the situation on TikTok Live, she complained about having paid millions of dollars in taxes to U.S., but still not having been given citizenship.

Back in 2018, she reflected on coming to the country illegally as the Donald Trump administration detained immigrants at the border. “I came to this country as an illegal immigrant at 5 years old,” she revealed on Instagram at the time. “I can’t imagine the horror of being in a strange place and having my parents stripped away from me at the age of 5. This is so scary to me. Please stop this. Can you try to imagine the terror & panic these kids feel right now? Not knowing if their parents are dead or alive, if they’ll ever see them again… ”
