\n\tNicki Minaj wished Elon Musk a happy birthday as the Tesla CEO turned 55 years old on Sunday (June 28), and the Barbz leader credited the tech mogul with \u201csaving free speech.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tMinaj shared what appears to be an AI-generated selfie with Musk on Sunday, alongside the birthday note. \u201cThank you for saving free speech, Elon. Happy Birthday Love always From Gag City & the Barbz,\u201d she wrote to Musk\u2019s X platform.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Queens rapper hasn\u2019t been shy about her Musk fandom. In May, she pulled up to Musk\u2019s Starbase in Texas to see SpaceX\u2019s flight test. Unfortunately, the launch was delayed due to technical errors within the spacecraft. <\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cBarbz, come on down, because this is a lot of fun. I\u2019m excited,\u201d she said in an interview at Starbase with members of the SpaceX content team. \u201cThis is historic, this is a major moment y\u2019all.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tMinaj continued: \u201cMajor shout-out to Elon. Thank you for everything that you\u2019re doing for humanity.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tAt the time, Minaj was fittingly wearing a \u201cStarship\u201d graphic T-shirt, as her Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded<\/em>\u00a0lead single \u201cStarships\u201d reached No. 5 on the\u00a0Billboard Hot 100\u00a0in 2012.<\/p>\n

\n\tEarlier in June, the \u201cSuper Bass\u201d rapper wished Donald Trump a happy 80th birthday with a series of AI-generated photos, one of which included Elon Musk and actress Sydney Sweeney taking a road trip with Minaj and Trump. <\/p>\n

\n\tThere\u2019s plenty of overlap between Trump and the Tesla CEO, as Musk previously served as Trump\u2019s senior advisor and was the head the Department of Government Efficiency before leaving the administration in May 2025.<\/p>\n

\n\tMinaj has spent much of the year raving about Donald Trump and her MAGA allegiance. She even claimed to be the president\u2019s \u201cNo. 1 fan\u201d in January when she met the president for the first time at a Trump Accounts Summit. <\/p>\n
