Celebrity musician Nicki Minaj has decisively claimed her Trinidadian heritage, saying via an Instagram post that she is a 'proud Trini'.
The rap diva shared photos to her Instagram account on Carnival Tuesday after wearing a costume from Tribe Carnival and enjoying the festivities with her husband while on a truck.
Minaj was seen partying with soca stars Machel Montano, Iwer and Kes, who all sang their hits including the popular 'Stage Gone Bad'.
Minaj, who just released her latest hit 'Yikes', was seen decked out in a blue and purple costume resplendent with feathers.
She was joined by husband Kenneth Petty who she married in October 2019.
Minaj said she and Petty were once childhood sweethearts when she lived in Queens, New York as a child.
Minaj produced a Carnival video for 'Pound the Alarm' in Trinidad in 2012.
'Fast and Furious' actor and musician Ludacris was also in the island for Trinidad and Tobago's 2020 Carnival celebrations.
