During his headlining set at Rolling Loudthis weekend, the ever-generous Plutorewarded the audience’s dedication with a surprise Nicki Minaj mini-set.

Catch a selection of clips of Minaj’s Rolling Loud surprise below.
Last week, Minaj—who returned to the forefront with “Chun-Li” and “Barbie Tingz” in April—announced that her new album Queen will be released June 15. She’s described it as her strongest work to date, and revealed it will be accompanied by a documentary.
“This is the best album I’ve ever in my life created,” she told Zane Lowe when premiering her singles. “I needed to focus and I just didn’t know, you know, I wanted to make sure I was writing something that was meaningful to me and that would inspire and captivate my audience.” Most important, Minaj added, was her intention of wanting to “have fun again” with her music.
June will also see new releases from Drake, Kanye West, Kid Cudi, and more. What a time.

OFFICIAL TRAILER RELEASED FOR “CALL ME MICKY,” EXECUTIVE PRODUCED BY DOMINIQUE JACKSON
New 22-minute documentary short follows Micky Angelo Petrillo after transitioning at 59, with the acclaimed POSE star helping bring his story to the screen
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE — NEW YORK: The official trailer for CALL ME MICKY, a new documentary short Executive Produced by acclaimed POSE star Dominique Jackson and directed by Andrew Rasmussen, has been released on YouTube ahead of the film’s upcoming festival run.
The 22-minute documentary follows Micky Angelo Petrillo, a larger-than-life New Jersey native who transitioned at 59 and is now discovering what comes next.
Rather than presenting transition as the conclusion of Petrillo’s story, CALL ME MICKY focuses on the life unfolding afterward — through Pride celebrations, open mics, friendships, storytelling and Petrillo’s increasingly public embrace of the man he fought decades to become.
Jackson also appears in the film, joining Petrillo for an intimate on-camera conversation about identity, visibility and what it means to finally live openly as yourself.
Internationally recognized for her commanding portrayal of Elektra on FX’s groundbreaking series POSE, Jackson is an actress, model, activist and producer who also served as an Executive Producer of the acclaimed documentary I’M YOUR VENUS, which premiered at the Tribeca Festival.
Petrillo is the author of the memoir Walking the Earth: First as a Woman, Then a Man.
While CALL ME MICKY captures one chapter of Petrillo’s much larger story, the film offers an intimate portrait of a man discovering that becoming yourself is not the ending — it may only be the beginning.
CALL ME MICKY is produced by CARDINAL, a New York City–based creative production company, and directed by CARDINAL co-founder Andrew Rasmussen.
The film begins its festival run this fall, with additional screenings and festival announcements forthcoming.
