Nicki Minaj handed out blessings on Twitter last night when she decided to help fans out with their tuition related balances.
It all started when Minaj announced an opportunity for fans to join her at the Billboard Music Awards. She told them to make a cover to her latest single, Regret In Your Tears, using musical.ly.
After making the video, they were instructed to tweet the video at Nicki Minaj using #NickiBBMAs for a chance to join her in Las Vegas at the BBMAs and a possible chance to kick it with her in the studio. (the contest is still open)
While tweeting about the contest last night, Minaj sent out a tweet saying she makes enough money to fly her fans from any country in the world to the BBMAs, so naturally one of her fans asked if she could pay for his tuition with all her funds.
Well you wanna pay for my tuition? pic.twitter.com/BhDil75UPj

Immediately fans started pouring in requests. A medical student tweeted Minaj saying she needed help, and Minaj simply asked how much. Then a fellow immigrant asked Minaj if she could help her pay for school, and Minaj responded with the following tweet:
U want to go to college but can't? How much do u need to get u in school? Is that the only thing stopping u? https://t.co/A3mYQHgPNX
