Nicki Minaj, 34, is feeling extra generous these days. On May 6, the "Super Bass" rapper received a meme from a 21-year-old fan that read: "Well you wanna pay for my tuition?" We bet he was pretty shocked when she actually replied and was willing to help. "Show me straight A's that I can verify w/ur school and I'll pay it," she tweeted back. "Who wants to join THAT contest?!?! Dead serious. Shld I set it up?" You can only imagine the barrage of tweets that ensued from there, from more students asking for a bit of financial help. Nicki replied to tons more of her fans with tweets like, "If u give me a 4.0 then I'll keep my end of the bargain." After asking for their bank info to be sent to her via direct message, Nicki actually went through with her word and started sending thousands of bucks to some of these college kids in need. According to TMZ, one person already received $500 and another $800. How cool of her is that?
