LAFAYETTE, La. — Superstar rapper Nicki Minaj made a sweet offer on Twitter to pay college tuition for her fans on Twitter, and one student in Lafayette quickly took her up on it.
Minaj announced on Twitter that if students could show her straight As, she would pay the tuition. She asked who would join that contest, and Artavion C, a University of Louisiana at Lafayette student, was one lucky respondent.
Show me straight A's that I can verify w/ur school and I'll pay it. Who wants to join THAT contest?!?!🤷🏽♀️ Dead serious. Shld I set it up? https://t.co/czH715u64a

The student posted a picture of his account balance at UL Lafayette. Turns out, he owes almost $1,200.
