According to the New York Post, Nicki Minaj deleted her Instagram account after backlash linked to her appearance at Turning Point USA’s AmericaFest alongside Erika Kirk.
The report says the backlash accelerated online as clips circulated and critics revisited her political commentary, with some viral claims overstating follower losses.
Other coverage noted that while her Instagram went inactive, parts of the “mass follower loss” narrative remain contested or unverified.
LiveMint (News site) also echoed the same development, noting: “Instagram ‘vanishes’ following the appearance” (https://www.livemint.com/). IBTimes UK (News site) also echoed the same development, noting: “didn’t lose 10M followers” (https://www.ibtimes.co.uk/).
Echotitbits take: This shows how fast politics and pop culture can collide into a reputational storm. What to watch next: whether Minaj returns with a statement, shifts to X-first engagement, or lets the news cycle cool—because each choice signals a different strategy for controlling the narrative.
