Gossip: Nicki Minaj

Minaj appears to be backing Mitt Romney.

Mitt Romney may have converted at least one former Obama supporter, said RollingStone.com. Colorful hip-hop star Nicki Minaj appeared to endorse the GOP’s presidential candidate in lyrics from a song released this week. “I’m a Republican voting for Mitt Romney,” she sang on a new release from Lil Wayne, excoriating lazy haters who are “f---ing up the economy.” The rapper had previously called on President Obama, on Twitter, to expand health-care coverage, but now appears to favor his opponent’s approach.
