The clip quickly went viral, sparking a wave of praise for Minaj's intelligence and comedic timing.
One user wrote, "She is sooo funny omg."

It seems that the more shit they give her, the higher she soars with her music career. And during 2023, she pretty much hit it out of the park. Only three women who have established music careers owned 2023. And those are Taylor Swift, Miley Cyrus and Nicki Minaj."

"Uggghhh we just loveee Mrs Minaj!! Yesss queen," added another.
