Nicki Minaj headlined a Christmas festival concert in Angola on Saturday, despite protests from the Human Rights Foundation charity over the country's human rights record.
After her slot, the Anaconda star posted a photograph of herself on Instagram with a huge smile and wrapped in Angola's national flag, with the caption: "Reppin the flag on my back. ANGOLA I LOVE U. THANK !!!!!!!!
The news comes after the head of the Human Rights Foundation, pleaded with the singer to cancel the concert.
In a letter to Nicki, he said: "Ms. Minaj, you are well known for being involved with charities such as the Get Schooled Foundation, which helps motivate young people to graduate from high school and succeed in college. If you move forward with this performance for the dictator and his family, you will be in league with the people stealing educational resources and opportunity from young Angolans."
Disappointed fans took to the rapper's Facebook page, with one writing: "Not cool, Nicki, not cool. I guess you don't care about human rights, eh?"
