DL Hughley stirred fresh controversy after addressing immigration, protest, and celebrity discourse during a recent public discussion, touching on both policy and pop culture in the process.
Hughley made headlines after claiming that Nicki Minaj is not a legal U.S. citizen—a statement that quickly sparked backlash and debate online. While the claim circulated widely on social media, Hughley framed his remarks as part of a broader critique of misinformation and selective outrage surrounding immigration issues.
He also pushed back against critics who argue that church spaces are inappropriate for anti-ICE protests. Hughley questioned that stance, pointing to reports alleging that U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents have detained undocumented immigrants immediately after church services. According to Hughley, if enforcement actions are happening in or around places of worship, then faith-based spaces are already part of the conversation—and therefore valid locations for protest.
The comments ignited intense online reactions, with supporters praising Hughley for calling attention to immigration enforcement practices, while critics accused him of spreading unverified claims and inflaming tensions. As the debate continues, Hughley’s remarks underscore how immigration, activism, and celebrity commentary remain deeply intertwined—and highly polarizing—in today’s cultural landscape.
DL Hughley says Nicki Minaj is not a legal citizen and addresses people online who claim church is not the place for anti-ICE protest, and speaks on reports that claim ICE agents are detaining illegal immigrants after church service.
