Nick Minaj Spent All Day Paying Off People’s Student Loans On Twitter And It’s Completely Incredible
It all started with a contest Nicki Minaj was running off of her Twitter when, totally out of the blue, one person asked the boldest question they could. Will you pay my tuition? This had nothing to do with the contest. They were just discussing what a good prize would be.

The answer was YES, with the condition that you be kicking butt in school and have a 4.0.
Then we were off to the races.
Show me straight A's that I can verify w/ur school and I'll pay it. Who wants to join THAT contest?!?!🤷🏽♀️ Dead serious. Shld I set it up? https://t.co/czH715u64a

People started pouring in with proof of their loan status and a simple request for help.

But some still thought she might be joking around.

She wasn’t.
If u give me a 4.0 then I'll keep my end of the bargain. https://t.co/Esqs9rwfPn
— Nicki Minaj (@NICKIMINAJ) May 7, 2017
Then she decided straight A’s might be too high a bar.
But… ppl with straight a's got scholarships 😩 what abt b's pic.twitter.com/5AmsQ2lw5O

Let me talk to Gee. Idk how it works. But straight A students can use money for living. They can still use the money. https://t.co/nOdu56r9rN
— Nicki Minaj (@NICKIMINAJ) May 7, 2017
And others started in with requests for their specific circumstances.
