The video ended up inspiring various memes and was even turned into remix tracks, one of which, according to the rapper, is now trending on iTunes. And now, she wants her check.

Over the last few weeks, it seems that coronavirus is on everyone's minds -- including the stars. Hollywood is a political place, and many of its starry inhabitants aren't known for mincing their words.
