Nicki Minaj, Kendrick Lamar and Lewis Hamilton are 2016's most influential people
- Published
Nicki Minaj, Kim Jong Un, Donald Trump and Lewis Hamilton all have something in common.
You wouldn't necessarily imagine them all sitting around the dinner table together, but they have all been named in Time 100's most influential people.
The list for 2016 also features Hillary Clinton, Kendrick Lamar, PewDiePie, Adele, Caitlyn Jenner and Leonardo DiCaprio.
And last night it was the gala in New York featuring stars on the list.
Nicki performed a medley and dedicated it to independent women.
She told the men in the room: "If you don't know how to treat your woman, there are 100 dudes lined up ready to treat her like a queen."
Lewis Hamilton described it as a "privilege and honour" to be attending the gala and recognised as one of the most influential people in the world.
During his toast he paid tribute to Prince saying he was "arguably the best artist of all time".
He dedicated a second toast to his dad "who made it all possible" for him to become the Formula One world champion.
Other winners to attend were Caitlyn Jenner and Melissa McCarthy.
Caitlyn used the event to address ongoing LGBT issues in America.
New legislation in North Carolina states transgender people must use public bathrooms according to the gender on their birth certificates.
But Caitlyn disagrees and said: "What's happening in North Carolina, they're so off. They need some help and I'm here to help."
Melissa McCarthy talked about the challenges actresses face in trying to be successful.
Speaking from experience she said people told her "you can't do that" or "that's not how you should think".
But she said nobody in the room "picked the easy way".
"There are a lot easier ways to do this than what you've all done, and I think we've all benefited from it greatly.
"I think we're all grateful for it. I just want to say thank you for just going your own direction."
