Nicki Minaj is the latest star to come into the spotlight, and the hip hop/R&B singer is giving even Gaga a run for her money. She’s worn everything from tiger hats to dolls and seems to change her hair colour every few days. Check out our gallery below and see what you think….

Here’s one of Nicki’s music videos in case you haven’t heard her music before:
And here’s our favourite clip of Nicki Minaj…. Wait for the 7.33 min mark.

I honestly don’t like her music. It’s one of the reasons the music industry is crap right now. Her style is quite a rip off of Lady Gaga. I must say, it does take a lot of courage to dress this way and to do what she does.

Nicki Minaj is further proof that you can put on everything in your wardrobe and a tacky wig and mindless people will follow you and call it fashion…Coco Chanel would cringe im sure !

This article is written like nobody has heard of Nicki Minaj before… she’s only been huge for over a year! (or have I accidentally stumbled into the nanna’s section of MM?)
loading...
Ha! The article is from the archives, it’s almost a year old itself! Not everyone breathes pop culture all the time

I love her style and music and everyones got diffrent taste so who cares what they think of you, we are who we are and no one can change that…….
loading...
Love her. She is an amazing artist & if she want & just a well managed phoney, she wouldn’t have collaborated with half the artists she had. A lot of her work is “x” featuring Nicki Minaj- kanye, Britney, usher, lil Wayne, Mariah, Rihanna.
I hate when people say others have stolen their style. Do you not source inspiration from anything that is being or has been done before? Must be nice being so complwtlwy original & have not absorbed any of the wonder from this world.

Yuck. I find her too tacky and plasticky.
loading...
Shes not creative, her manager (diddy) is. He tells her what she should wear, look like, think, rap, etc. In the beginning of her career she was never ever like that. She was never talking like some controlled googoo gaga baby. But now she is because diddy created her so she could be different and everyone could notice her….. Thats the entertainment business.
Nice before and after plastic surgery photos attached.

I think she looks cute and kinda smiley! Shame about the ‘music’ though… :p
loading...
Yeah not my type of music either. She is what I think a baby between Katy Perry and Gaga would turn out like.
loading...
I think her outfits are incredibly tacky!
loading...
I’m afraid I’ll be having nightmares tonight…
loading...
Thank you so much for this article. She was all over fashion week in ny but. I had no idea who she was and didn’t want to google to increase her hit rate in case she was another mindless reality star.
loading...
I’m guessing she has grey trackydaks and a too-big t-shirt for relaxing on Sunday mornings like the rest of us.

It’s entertainment. And it’s great. The people whining about ‘but what about the music’ etc have short memories, certain sections of music have always been about the whole package, entertaining in every way, not just your ears. And if it makes you feel better Adele is selling 10 million albums in a year, so the Nicki Minaj’s of the world are still proving to be just a fun diversion.
I’ve also never heard her (or lady gaga for that matter) claim to be wholly orighinal. She’s fun, the costume’s are eye popping, even if I’m not sure if I’m looking at Kesha, Lady G, Madonna, Kylie or Lil Kim. How boring would it be if everyone dressed appropriately in highly styled clothed and just stood there singing.
Yay for Nicki brightening things up.

LOVE the photo with Anna Wintour!!! Imagine that Ms W had her catsbum face on all through that show
Great that Nicki is so adventurous with her fashion. If you can’t do that at her age then when are you going to do it?
loading...
Nicki Minaj is amazing at what she does. You just need to listen to her in Kanya West’s ‘Monster’ to see what all the fuss is about. =)
loading...
I loved her in Monster! That’s what made me get into her.
As much as I hate the term, she really is ‘fierce’ in that song. Such attitude for a female, I love it!
loading...
Thanks for this post, I actually have been meaning to look her music up on YouTube to see what she actually sings as i see her pictures everywhere. Catchy fun song. More power to her. Better to be bright than beige I say.
loading...
While I don’t really have an opinion on her music, and think she’s just attention seeking, she is not as original as she makes herself out to be.

Loving her bootay!
loading...
I’ve never heard any of her music but I’ve seen many pictures of her outfits.
Music now is becoming less about the music and more about the look.
loading...
Love her and her music! She’s an entertainer so why shouldn’t she express herself this way? Plus she’s known for having her multiple personalities (through her music) so she is different to a lot of others.

Who is Nicky Minaj and why does she dress like this ?
Nicky Minaj is a popstar in America and she dresses this way to get attention.
She has succeeded in getting attention today
loading...
I don’t know her music but love her outfits. I can’t count the amount of times I have put some thing back in my wardrobe because I was too self conscious of people noticing me or thinking I looked weird. I wish I had her guts.
It looks like she is having a lot of fun and not taking herself to seriously. Better than pop stars who just put a star over their nipples……ew

Who is Nicki Minaj? A wannabe pop star
Why does she dress like this? For attention. More fool you (and me) for giving it to her.
loading...
Nope, she doesn’t do it for me.
Seems too trashy and try hard/processed for my liking.
But more power to her.
loading...
I LOVE her… Love. Love love love.
loading...
Love her!
loading...
my ears/eyes/brain hurt… yuk
loading...
I’m loving the fact that she’s got some serious booty and thighs going on there and still manages to look mega-hot. There’s hope for us big arsed girls yet!
loading...
I like her. Anna Wintour must have died when she was seated next to her! I’d pay to see that.
loading...
Bahaha…
She’s ripped that look off the crew of the space-station in Gerry Anderson’s 1970s TV show, UFO:
loading...
Her music is catchy. The outfits are clearly part of her image to make her stand out and sell more music. And also artistic expression. But mostly the standing out thing. At least she’s nice and bright and colourful. She’s fun to watch.
