Here's What You Need to Know About Nicki Minaj's Rumored Boyfriend Lewis Hamilton

From Cosmopolitan

Exciting news for people who are super invested in Nicki Minaj's love life! The rapper appears to be dating Formula One racer Lewis Hamilton-or at least it sure AF looks that way as they are currently on vacation together in Dubai. You probably already know the basics about Mr. Hamilton (he's got a crazy-hot accent and races cars for a living!), but don't those facts just entice you to learn more? No? Then what about this quick thirst trap?

The Basics

In a nutshell, Lewis is 33, English, and extremely good at racing cars. He's the most successful British driver in Formula One's history, having won more titles and championships than you, me, and everyone we know. He's also the first black driver to race in Formula One and at one point, he was the sport's youngest champion ever. Lewis' brother Nicholas, who has cerebral palsy, is also a racer-he's one of the few disabled drivers in the entire industry. I wanna carpool with the Hamilton fam!

But back to Lewis! He got into racing as a kid in Hertfordshire (not to be confused with the Shire, where Hobbits live), but don't get it twisted: he also has a slew of other talents, including being super good at soccer and cricket, and knowing how to ride a unicycle.

He's Not Big into TAXES

Back in 2007, Lewis decided to move to Switzerland, in part to avoid UK taxes, but also to get away from the spotlight. He eventually moved to Monaco, which is another good location for people who aren't down with paying taxes to Uncle Sam and his British buddies. (Uncle Earl? IDK.) Monaco also seems like a nice place to own a yacht, ya know?

He Used to Date Nicole Scherzinger

As in, the lead singer of Pussycat Dolls, the best band of all time (don't even think about @-ing me). The pair were on-again/off-again in the mid aughts, finally splitting for good back in February 2015 amid tabloid rumors that Lewis didn't want to get married.

(Psst: Remember how Lewis was also linked to Kendall Jenner? He shut those rumors down right quick by saying they're "just friends.")

He's Vegan

Lewis made the decision to stop eating animal products last year, telling BBC, "As the human race, what we are doing to the world...the pollution coming from the amount of cows that are being produced is incredible. They say it is more than what we produce with our flights and our cars, which is kind of crazy to think. The cruelty is horrible and I don't necessarily want to support that and I want to live a healthier life."

He's INSANELY Rich

According to Celebrity Net Worth, Lewis makes a cool $50 million per year, and has a total net worth of $285 million. His income comes from a combination of endorsements and prize money. Speaking of endorsements, he currently has a casual line with Tommy Hilfiger:

And Finally, He Has Tons of Celeb Friends

Likeeeee, Anna Wintour (and Serena Williams):

And Travis Scott:

And the freaking Queen:

And Prince Harry:

And Diddy:

Basically, he's living his best life. This has been an update!
