Nicki Minaj’s latest post on Instagram has generated plenty of buzz, with fans speculating about her playful reference to Taylor Swift. Known for her outspoken nature, Minaj’s gesture has left many wondering about the deeper meaning behind it.
What exactly did Minaj hint at, and what could it mean for her and Taylor Swift’s relationship? Let’s explore further.
Nicki Minaj’s ‘Sag Queen’ Taylor Swift post explained
Nicki Minaj recently showed her support for Taylor Swift on social media.
In a recent Instagram story, Minaj referred to Swift as “Sag Queen.” (via Reddit) This came as she reposted the “Cardigan” singer’s recap of her Miami performances during The Eras Tour. The term “Sag Queen” seemingly refers to both artists’ Sagittarius zodiac sign, with Minaj turning 42 on December 8 and Swift turning 35 on December 13, during the Sagittarius season.
Minaj’s Instagram story highlighted her and Taylor Swift’s shared Sagittarius zodiac sign. However, this isn’t the first time she has celebrated Swift. The “Bang Bang” singer has called Swift “Sag Queen” before, reinforcing their astrological connection.
In May 2024, Minaj praised Swift’s chart success in a post on X (formerly Twitter), calling attention to the latter’s commercial achievements and once again using the “Sag Queen” label. The bond between Nicki Minaj and Taylor Swift goes back years. Both artists, born in December, have often shown mutual support.
Furthermore, in 2013, while accepting an award at the MTV Video Music Awards, Swift gave a shout-out to Minaj, calling her “my favorite Sagittarius.” This mutual recognition set the tone for future collaborations and supportive interactions. Moreover, one of their most notable joint performances took place at the 2015 MTV VMAs.
The two singers took the stage and performed a medley of their hits, including Minaj’s “Trini Dem Girls” and Swift’s “Bad Blood.” Now, as Taylor Swift continues her record-breaking Eras Tour and Nicki Minaj maintains her influential status in rap, the affectionate “Sag Queen” reference serves as a reminder of the camaraderie between two of modern music’s most successful stars.
