Nicki Minaj and Lara Trump 'in Talks' to Record Surprise Duet as Rapper Knows It Would Create 'an Enormous Amount of Buzz': Source

Nicki Minaj may be adding an unlikely name to her next track, with insiders claiming a surprise duet is being discussed behind the scenes.

The "Super Bass" artist, 43, is reportedly "in talks" to collaborate with Donald Trump's daughter-in-law Lara Trump on a new song, sources told a news outlet on Wednesday, July 29.

"Lara is definitely driving this," the source told the outlet. "She made the first move, they’ve been talking, and Nicki hasn’t shut the door. This is much more than a passing idea."

The wife of Eric Trump, 43, launched her music career in September 2023 with a cover of Tom Petty's "I Won't Back Down." She has since released multiple singles, including "Anything Is Possible" and "No Days Off," featuring rapper French Montana.

A separate source said the New York rapper and the mother-of-two have "been talking about doing a duet" and teased that "ideas have been exchanged."

"Everyone involved knows it would create an enormous amount of buzz," the insider continued. "Whether people stream it because they love it or because they can’t believe it exists is beside the point."

The "Moment 4 Life" artist has become one of the president's most outspoken celebrity supporters in the last year.

She went public with her support for Donald, 80, and Vice President J.D. Vance when she made a surprise appearance at Turning Point USA’s AmericaFest in December 2025.

“Dear young men, you have amazing role models like our handsome, dashing president," she raved while on stage. "And you have amazing role models like the assassin, J.D. Vance."

She continued, "This administration is full of people with heart and soul, and they make me proud of them. Our vice president, he makes me … well, I love both of them. Both of them have a very uncanny ability to be someone that you relate to."

More recently, the Grammy-nominated rapper insisted that many celebrities share her views but refused to say so openly.

"Sometimes you just need one brave person to get the brunt of the impact. I think I am the catalyst for that change..." she told Time on May 13. "Hopefully when they see me and hear me speak and feel my energy, that will make them say, 'You know what: Who am I afraid of? What am I afraid of?'"

She confessed that she had supported Donald for a while, but she "didn't dare" say so publicly since it's "been ingrained in everyone's brain in the music business that we are supposed to be a Democratic family."
