The US rapper is famous for speaking her mind.

She’s had her fair share of expletive-laden feuds with other celebs including soon-to-be Mrs Packer, Mariah Carey.

Now the Anaconda singer has taken aim at Melania Trump in an expletive-ridden rap.

The 33-year-old was on stage on Saturday at Brooklyn’s Tidal X 1015 concert, when she ripped into the third wife of US Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump.

“Cause you are so f---king weak, y’all got the audacity to be intimidated by a bad motherf---king queen and get your motherf---king feelings hurt,” Minaj shouted to the audience.

“But it’s O motherf---king K, because Barack needed a Michelle, b-tch, and Bill needed a motherf--king Hillary, b-tch. You better pray to God you don’t get stuck with a motherf--king Melania.”

Minaj has since responded to her lyrics and said she was not “dragging” her into matters but instead insisted that Ms Trump seemed “nice”.

‘That is not the man I know’, says Mrs Trump

Melania Trump has dismissed her husband’s sexually aggressive language as “boy talk,” insisting his remarks do not reflect “the man I know.”

Trump’s wife, in a series of media interviews, said she has accepted her husband’s apology and the couple is “moving on.”

The comments come more than a week after the release of a 2005 video in which Trump brags about kissing women and grabbing their genitalia without their permission.

“I said to my husband that, you know, the language is inappropriate. It’s not acceptable. And I was surprised, because that is not the man that I know,” she told CNN on Monday.

She suggested that Trump may not have known his microphone was on, calling it “kind of a boy talk” that Access Hollywood host Billy Bush was encouraging.

Mrs Trump also said it is fair game for her husband to appear with women who have accused former President Bill Clinton of sexual assault, claiming the Democrats fired the first volley into the increasingly ugly war about the couples’ private lives.

“They’re asking for it. They started. They started from the beginning of the campaign putting my picture from modelling days,” she said in excerpts released by Fox News ahead of the interview’s broadcast.

“That was my modelling days and I’m proud what I did. I worked very hard.”

Mrs Trump’s image was used in a negative ad campaign during the Republican primary, but there is no evidence that the Clintons were involved.

At the time, Donald Trump accused former rival Ted Cruz of being involved and responded by tweeting an unflattering image of the Texas senator’s wife. Cruz also denied involvement.

The interviews are Mrs Trump’s first moments in the public eye since the accusations over the last 10 days that have sent her husband’s White House bid reeling.

Billy Bush sacked by NBC’s Today Show

NBC News has fired “Today” show host Billy Bush, who was caught on tape in a vulgar conversation about women with Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump before an “Access Hollywood” appearance.

Bush was suspended at the morning show two days after contents of the 2005 tape were reported on Oct. 7. NBC and Bush’s representatives had been negotiating terms of his exit before Monday’s announcement.

On the tape, Bush is heard laughing as Trump talks about fame enabling him to grope and try to have sex with women not his wife. Bush later said he was “embarrassed and ashamed.” Trump has since denied groping women.

Bush, who had been at “Today” for two months, is the nephew of Republican former President George H.W. Bush.

NBC made the announcement of his firing in a note from “Today” show top executive Noah Oppenheim to his staff. Oppenheim called Bush, who spent 15 years at “Access Hollywood,” “a valued colleague and longtime member of the broader NBC family. We wish him success as he goes forward.” Bush, a 44-year-old father of three, said that he was “deeply grateful for the conversations I’ve had with my daughters, and for all of the support from family, friends and colleagues. I look forward to what lies ahead.” The settlement with NBC did not include a non-compete clause, meaning Bush “is a free agent,” said his lawyer, Marshall Grossman. Financial terms of the deal were kept confidential.

Shock jock Stern refuses to ‘betray’ Trump

Howard Stern has Donald Trump’s back.

The US radio star said he won’t replay any old interviews with the Republican presidential candidate after the latest “grab them by the p---y” scandal.

The billionaire businessman has appeared on his friend’s controversial show numerous times, discussing his past infidelities, women who are “great in bed” and his desire for Princess Diana.

Now reporters claim to have discovered damning interviews Trump did on Stern’s show between 2002 to 2013, and want them to be released.

“Why don’t I play all the tapes?” Stern said on his show on Monday morning.

“I have to tell you why: I feel Donald Trump did the show in an effort to be entertaining and have fun with us and I feel like it would be a betrayal to any of our guests if I sat there and played them now where people are attacking him.”

Stern, a Hillary Clinton supporter, said the interviews weren’t conducted to “f--k someone over.”

“We were having a good time. I fully knew what I was doing when I interviewed Trump. I knew I had a guy who loved to talk about sex,” he said.

“I had a guy who loved to evaluate women on a scale of one to 10. These are avenues I went down because I knew it would entertain the audience”.

Stern also commented on the expression “locker room talk”, the defence Trump invoked when a 2005 hot-mic recording of him boasting about his treatment of women surfaced.

“A lot of the show that I’ve been doing for my entire life, radio show publicly, is an effort to sort of do ‘locker room talk,’ to express all kinds of s--t and just not even care what anyone thinks,” said Stern.

“But this idea of ‘locker room talk’ ... all the times I’ve been around guys — and believe me when I’m around guys 85 per cent of the times you’re talking about p---y but I have never been in the room when someone has said ‘grab them by the p---y,” said Stern, repeating Trump’s boast from the bus.

“No one’s ever advocated going that step where you get a little bit, ‘hey I’m going to invade someone’s space.’ ... A lot of (locker room banter is) real kind of desperate talk. The reason it’s in a locker room is because no one’s proud of it”.

Larry Flynt offers $1m for Trump recordings

HUSTLER founder Larry Flynt has announced he will pay up to US$1 million (AU$1.3 million) to anyone who submits scandalous audio or video of Trump to the new website, thedonaldtapes.com.

“I have always celebrated women. Women in all shapes and sizes. To treat a woman like Mr Trump himself has is both disappointing and unbelievable, especially coming from someone who wants to be our president,” the 73-year-old porn mogul said in a statement.

According to the statement posted online, Flynt “continues to be appalled by the hypocrisy of our elected officials who dictate how the American people should live their lives behind closed doors while themselves engaging in the variety of activities they publicly condemn”.

Trump ramps up voter fraud claim

The news comes as Donald Trump declared he expects widespread voter fraud in the November 8 presidential election, ramping up his warning of a rigged election despite considerable evidence that shows the electoral system is sound.

Trump has tried to whip up fears of a flawed election as he has fallen back in opinion polls against Clinton.

He is also strongly denying allegations from multiple women that he has sexually assaulted or otherwise behaved inappropriately with them.

“Of course there is large scale voter fraud happening on and before election day. Why do Republican leaders deny what is going on? So naive!” Trump said on Twitter on Monday.

Trump, a New York businessman making his first run for public office, has not provided any evidence to back the allegations of fraud and a number of Republicans are chafing.

Some of them have urged him publicly to show proof or drop the claims. Early voting and voting by mail have begun in many states.

Numerous studies have shown that voter fraud in US elections is rare, according to the Brennan Center for Justice at New York University School of Law.

In a report titled The Truth About Voter Fraud, the centre cited voter fraud incident rates between 0.00004 per cent and 0.0009 per cent.

An August study by The Washington Post found 31 credible cases of impersonation fraud out of more than one billion votes cast in elections from 2000 to 2014.
