With over 20 million singles sold in the US this year, it’s no surprise Nicki Minaj felt the need to treat herself hours ago.
Armed with long time pal SB, the ‘Keys Under Da Palm Trees’ Rapper hit Beverly Hills for a spot of shopping- on a trip which saw her stop by at Gucci, much to the surprise of pedestrian customers whose snaps of the star can be seen above and below.
Her sighting comes after her latest LP ‘Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded’ surpassed sales of 1.1 million units worldwide but before it emerged that her ‘Young Money’ mate Drake is planning to part ways with the music group, to get into bed with her long mentor Irv Gotti.
More from the American Idol judge below…
Fans of the ‘Va Va Voom‘ Rapper can catch her on ‘Idol’ when it hits FOX, January 16th.

I ain’t seen my boo in like a month. She ain’t been on twitter.
She looks like she ain’t in da mood for that colorful, out if this world shit. She look like she just chilled, relaxing. No tours. No interviews. Getting ready for Pink Friday: The Pinkprint. I love Nicki. Good pic.

You’d be surprised. TGJ loves getting bitches on technicalities. Starships sold 4 million so that only leaves 16 million which would come from ALL the other singles she’s ever released and how much they’ve sold this year. So i’d say they’re about right.
They should have said with 20 million singles sold so far, but since they stan for her…

The sad thing is that they’re not lying. She’s at 18 million. Sign of the times when gimmick hoes like these are the flavor of the moments.

I was about to drag you for that 20 million comment but then I realised you might be right and in perspective it wouldn’t be impossible if you added every single sale from every single she has out, but if you were talking about released this year you’re innacurate.

YOSSSS TGJ. Spill dem facts.
Starships 4 million in 2012.

Pound the alarm- 1 million
Beez In The Trap – 800k
IAYL- 900K
Right Thru Me- 300k

That’s already 10 million and that doesn’t even include all the sales from remixes. Get it bitch.

If that 20 mill includes every single she’s ever sold and what they sold this year, then fine. If not, learn to count.

There is no need to deny the truth. She is STRUGGLING. I lost all respect for her after I heard “stupid hoe” and “beez in the trap.” Don’t stress when your fave’s career ends in about two years.

To answer yall’s question, the reason Nicki’s album is considered a flop is because of the HUGE $$$$$$ promotion that went into the project. No way did her label recoup that money.
Yall musta forgotten the promotion, everybody in the industry, including her and her record label thought she would open with no less than 500K since Wayne opened with $1m and Drake opened with $700K. Therefore, the label was expecting much more than $250K.
Then, to add salt to injury, she rushed her ReFlop earlier than expected in order to rescue the album, and she opened to another Flop. The Re-Up was also heavily $$$$$ promoted and opened during Black Friday.
Roman is dead.

They aint fooling nobody. This is nothing but the works of Hot97 trying to dust Nicki off and sell her to the streets. So now all of a sudden we see her in leather. No pink or tutu. This is a set up. Expect to see her more in more tough textured materials but I ain’t buying the gimmick.
