Trump aides have informally floated Nicki Minaj as a possible new White House press secretary following Katie Zacharia's firing, according to TMZ's account of the exchanges. The suggestion drew responses from the White House's X account and Minaj herself, although it remains unclear whether she is being seriously considered.
TMZ described the exchanges as informal nominations following Zacharia's dismissal. Its coverage did not establish that Minaj had received an offer or that a decision on a replacement had been announced.
