Nicki Minaj claims Chrissy Teigen is trans because she laughed at a joke about her butt

MAGA rapper Nicki Minaj has accused cisgender female supermodel Chrissy Teigen of being transgender in retaliation for Teigen laughing at and giving a thumbs-up to comedian Trevor Noah’s jokes about Minaj’s love of President Donald Trump during Noah’s gig hosting the recent Grammy Awards. In response to Minaj’s attack on Teigen, numerous social media commenters reminded Minaj that her own husband is a registered sex offender.
Minaj, a conspiracy theorist who believes that pop artists are ritually sacrificing children as blood offerings to Satan, accused Noah of being a closet homosexual in retaliation for his joking about her absence at the annual music awards. During the awards ceremony, Noah said, “[Minaj] is still at the White House with Donald Trump discussing very important issues,” and then proceeded to do an imitation of Trump proclaiming that his butt is much larger than Minaj’s — Minaj famously sang about her own large buttocks in her 2014 song, “Anaconda.”

Video of the moment showed Teigen in the background giving Noah a thumbs-up after he noted Minaj’s absence. Teigen then laughed at Noah’s imitation of Trump. Numerous other celebrities can be seen also laughing and smiling during Noah’s comments, including Teigen’s husband, musician John Legend, and comedic actor Jeff Goldblum. However, Minaj has not publicly attacked them for it.
In a post on X published last Sunday night, Minaj wrote, “Everyone knows Chrissy Tiegan has/had a dik. Allegedly,” and posted her comment alongside the image of the fictional serial murdering children’s doll Chucky drinking a dirty martini.
In response, commenters on X reminded Minaj that her husband, Kenneth Petty, is a registered sex offender, having served four years in prison for attempted rape. He was arrested in 2020 because he failed to register as a sex offender when he moved to California with Minaj and was sentenced to a year of house arrest.

Minaj had previously lashed out at Noah on X, writing, “Trevor refuses to come out the closet when everyone in the industry knows his boyfriend. Allegedly.” Noah does not identify as a member of the LGBTQ+ community.
“MAGA Minaj” has become an increasingly outspoken supporter of Trump, partly due to her opposition to transgender people’s rights. At a Turning Point USA event in December, she said that Trump was “handsome” and then told trans girls to “be boys”: “It’s nothing wrong with being a boy. How about that? How powerful is that? How profound is that? Boys will be boys, and there’s nothing wrong with that.”
Earlier this month, she called gay journalist Don Lemon “Don ‘c**k suckin’ Lemon” and “disgusting” after he broadcast a protest at a church in Minnesota. Conservatives have claimed that the protest, which was about opposition to ICE, was an attack on “Christian worshippers.”
