Attending college and graduating with a degree is undoubtedly an accomplishment, but that often leaves a lot of young students with huge student loan debt. So when Nicki Minaj took to Twitter on Saturday evening and offered to pay the student loans of her fans, her charitable act nearly broke the internet.

Nicki initially launched a contest to fly out one lucky fan from anywhere in the world to join her for a meet and greet. One fan casually asked whether Nicki would be willing to pay their college tuition instead of paying the airfare for the winner.
Nicki said she would if the fan could prove they had impeccable grades. “Show me straight A’s that I can verify w/ur school and I’ll pay it,” she wrote on Twitter. “Who wants to join THAT contest?!?!♀️ Dead serious. Shld I set it up?” Soon other fans were requesting Nicki pay off their student loans and Nicki responded that she would pay a few.

Nicki ended the spree saying she had to check if she had “any money left” and that she’d do this again in a few months.
