Read our privacy policy The White House has offered to answer Nicki Minaj’s questions about the safety and efficacy of Covid-19 vaccines. The White House said in a statement that it has offered this kind of outreach in the past, as it is part of a public relations push to counter misinformation and mistrust surrounding the United States’ vaccine drive. On Wednesday, she tweeted: “The White House has invited me & I think it’s a step in the right direction.” Adding that she’ll be dressed in all pink “like Legally Blonde”, Minaj promised to ask questions on behalf of those “who have been made fun of for simply being human”. “As we stand now, there is absolutely no reported side effect or adverse event of testicular swelling in Trinidad… and none that we know of anywhere in the world,” the country’s health minister Terrence Deyalsingh said on Wednesday.
