Nicki Minaj dedicates People's Choice Award to Kim Kardashian's famous bum

Kim Kardashian’s bum got a shout out from Nicki Minaj who dedicated her People’s Choice Award to the reality star’s derrière.

The US rapper, who picked up the Album of 2018 gong for Queen, paid tribute to an unlikely source of support as she took to the stage on Sunday night.

“I can’t thank my fans enough for voting for me to win this award. I love you so much,” Minaj said.

“Also, I want to shout out…I’m going to dedicate this award to Kim Kardashian’s a** in that dress!”

Kardashian, who was also an award winner on the night, taking home Reality Show of the Year, later tweeted about Minaj being “her boo”.

The Keeping Up With The Kardashians star, 38, wore a full length striped dress, styled as an optical illusion, for the event in California.

Kardashian used the acceptance speech to urge people to “come together in trying times” amid raging wildfires in the state.

She said: “Thank you guys so much, it's been a really rough week. Our hearts are broken because of the shooting as well as the devastating fires that are burning.

"It's amazing to see resilient spirit as well as people risking their lives on the front lines. Our country is stronger when we come together. We must continue to reach out during these trying times.”

Minaj also couldn’t resist flirting with Michael B Jordan up on stage, using the show’s opening moments to hit on him.

The 35-year-old thanked fashion designer Donatella Versace for her outfit before adding: "And shout out to Michael B Jordan because he's going to be taking it off me tonight."
