  2. RihannaForever January 13, 2011

    This looks bizarre and it’s not what I pictured.

    But she is bizarre, so it’s all good 😀

  3. FUTURESTARdelux January 13, 2011

    This is the only Nicki song i like, the vid looks good appart from her stupid faces, does she REALLY always have to have her eyeballs almost popping out of her f***** face? smh

  4. paul January 13, 2011

    wow not what i expected but i can see where she is going with it like cinderella wow nicki is so smart love her long time

  5. UGh January 13, 2011

    i’m still waiting for Nicki to make a good video. c’mon girl you can do it 😐

  6. Prince January 13, 2011

    Yeeeesss Nicki im Loving what i see in this video! Lol i think she called her self a b**** lol. U betta show that Peasant Kim how it’s done. That Peasant Kim will never get her crown back.

  7. carl January 13, 2011

    i think this video will be cute i like what the storyline seems like ….i love how nicki is too serious she makes me laugh

  8. irregular & proud January 13, 2011

    I love this song. I cant wait to see the video, looks pretty damn juicy.

  9. Drew January 13, 2011

    Oh my God this looks horrible. This song is serious and could have a great video but this looks like some sort of a spoof.

    @FutureStarDelux
    I totally agree with you. I don’t see why she always has to look crazy. It seems so forced.

  10. KaVion January 13, 2011

    LMAO I love nicki..but i cant with these faces haha
    I thought she was gonna be chill, i mean this is a meaningful song so why is she doin the faces? lmao..itll be great either way though

  11. 2BAD2BME January 13, 2011

    I LOVE THIS LADY SHE CAN ACT LIKE SHIIIT ON ANOTHER LEVEL!!

  12. KaVion January 13, 2011

    @DREW I Think that that whole funny skit is only in the beginning! like an intro to the story..
    Notice after that and with the pictures leaked weeks ago..shes serious and the video isnt wacky. Yea im pretty sure that its just for that opening skit

  13. FUTURESTARdelux January 13, 2011

    @Drew, i think the vid looks “ok” but this is one of the only semi serious tracks on the (s*****) album and she had an opportunity to show that she can be slightly mature (lyrically) but instead stuck with her stupidness and chose some cinderella s*** which aint clever at all btw @PAUL.

    @PRINCE, get real Nicki hasn’t taken anybodies crown. Kim has paved the way for females, even more so for Nicki since she had to cover Kim’s songs, jack her style and cause all this fuss just to get noticed.

  14. CIARALOVER January 13, 2011

    im EXCITED to see the video, looks amazing and it is a great song too 🙂

  15. ~BeySoBreezy~ January 13, 2011

    I messes with Nicki, but I wish she would stop making those retarded ass faces. It would be nice if she just…..rapped. Cant wait to see the video though.

  16. Drew January 13, 2011

    @Kavion
    Maybe. She should’ve gone with Rihanna4ever’s idea though. By the way, you have my old Gravatar, LOL.

    @Futurestardelux
    I totally agree. This could have had a serious video to show that she can do serious rap (she showed she can sing seriously with videos on “Right Thru Me”) but this looks so unoriginal and bad. I hope the “Fly” video is a bit better/more mature.

    Also, I wish she’d take the V photoshoot look and make a video like that, LOL. Gor-geous.

  17. Che’s_Beret January 13, 2011

    Ok. It looks interesting…

  18. Monster January 13, 2011

    @FUTURESTARdelux

    B*******!
    Lil Kim’s Hard Core shits but Pink Friday shits on the rest of Kim’s discography, lets not forget who ghostwrote Hard Core. *cough*biggie*cough*
    Kim has been irrelevant before Nicki even popped into the scene,
    if anything Kim is using Nicki as an object to revive her dead career, what a failure.

  19. Prince January 13, 2011

    FutureStarDelux u r right about Kim paving the way 4 Nicki but Kim is really Dead right now. Nicki has no competition right now. That’s why its soo easy 2 give the crown 2 Nicki right now. Even when Nicki wasn’t noticed yet, Kim still failed 2 get a hit basically Kim was still Dead b4 Nicki was noticed. Kim even new she was Dead herself. Maybe kims upcoming album will resurrect her but i doubt it.

  20. RihannaForever January 13, 2011

    @Monster
    I stan for Nicki too, but I don’t really think either you or FuturestarDelux is correct. Kim did pave the way for new female rappers, unlike what you said, but it wasn’t solely her that did so, unlike what Futurestardelux said.

  21. Jeremy Danté January 13, 2011

    i love it. go nicki!

  22. lee January 13, 2011

    cute looking video but why is drake looking like that at .19 when nicki is rapping at him i cant explain the look but it looks weird …………….and looks like a romantic comedy video

  23. Neickha January 13, 2011

    I actually like this song. And can’t wait until the video comes out.. It looks interesting and Drake looks handsome.

  24. Monster January 13, 2011

    @Rihannaforever I never said she did NOT pave the way, but I did have to correct FuturestarDelux.
    Kim’s career has BEEN dead and will continue to STAY that way. Point blank.
    Her fans are pressed and won’t accept that fact.

  25. lolsmileyface January 13, 2011

    AHAHAHAA looks at Nicki completely slaying with this music video clip, just wiping Lil Kim off with her song premiere.

  26. RihannaForever January 13, 2011

    @Monster
    I don’t see much hope for Kim either, but I misread your comment.

  27. YEa January 13, 2011

    @FUTURESTARDELUX

    “Nicki since she had to cover Kim’s songs, jack her style and cause all this fuss just to get noticed.”
    please nicki has covered everybody damn song not just kims and u have to be kidding me kim is the one who started all the fuss to get noticed again like are u serious and the only thing nicki got from kim was a colored wig ..nicki style is totally different from kims to me and thats the problem with and other kim fans yall act like kim was the first female rapper NEWSFLASH she wasnt at all they all paved the way for nicki not just kim ………..kim is making it harder for nicki now but nicki is paving the way for kim now tho

    o people she only makes 1 crazy face in the preview and thats the first second the rest looks serious somewhat so get over it

  28. Prince January 13, 2011

    @Yea i agree 100% with u the only thing Nicki got from Kim was a colored wig! Nicki and Kims Flows on rap song are totally different. Its jus so funny how people call Kim her mother jus bcuz Nicki wears colored wigs. Is Katy Perry Kim daughter too? lol

  29. Diane January 13, 2011

    Now it makes sense why Nicki wore the 7″ glass slipper on Ellen; segue into the Cinderella-themed video. wink wink.

  30. OJ January 13, 2011

    awh this is cute

  31. dana January 13, 2011

    not watt i expected:(

  32. FUTURESTARdelux January 13, 2011

    @Monster, “Hard Core”, “Nortorious KIM”, “La Bella Mafia”, “Naked Truth”, Mz G.O.A.T” > “Pink Friday” you can’t even seriously compare them anyway since all Kims albums are HIP HOP and Nicki’s is Hip Pop.

    @Prince, So funny how people make out Kim was flopping before Nicki, She hasn’t released an album that flopped. She released “Naked Truth” which still did 400k even though she was in Jail and did no promo and then she took a hiatus.
    Last i checked she’s had features that charted higher than Nicki’s since then and since all Nicki had was features before “Pink Friday” dropped and y’all stans still wanted to pretend she was the second comming of Biggie and Tupac please #TakeASeat

    @RihannaForever, I didn’t mean Kim is the only female that paved the way, I know and Kim aknowleges that there were great females before her like MC Lyte etc i just meant that just like Kim can’t take away what they achieved Nicki can’t take away what Kim has (which is far more than her) Kim was original when she came out, there was no female doing what she did and she made is acceptable in Hip Hop whereas Nicki is like Ke$ha she has her one hit album but musically and lyrically she is nothing new or original.

  33. Traci Summers January 13, 2011

    NICKI HAS TO LOOK CRAZY SO SHE CAN SELL.. SHE HAS TO PRETEND TO BE A CRAZY MENTAL B**** SO U BARBIES WILL BUY HER S***

  34. lovely January 13, 2011

    @future
    have you actually listened to pink friday
    if you have you would have clearly knew this song was not the only serious song on that album
    dear old nicki,save me,here i am,fly ect
    hell most of the songs on that album sound like a diary so be honest did you just call it s***** cuz its nicki or did you actually take the time to listen to it
    ive tend to notice people have yet to really listen to nicki before they call her garbage
    i know kim ya girl and all but dont knock s*** until you have really tried it

  35. True Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ Blue January 13, 2011

    For Nicki, this IS normal.

  36. lovely January 13, 2011

    nicki is actually pretty interesting and thats why she holds the attention of so many people
    she is a entertainer in every sense and she does her job well
    her lyrics can be funny and witty but i love her emotional songs i can not stop playin
    (here i am) relates to my situation so much
    but yea this video looks pretty cute tho

  37. Tiff January 13, 2011

    This chick looks scary.

  38. GangsterA January 13, 2011

    omg its cute can’t wait to see it i see some rats are already pressed #staymad

    This looks bizarre and it’s not what I pictured.

    But she is bizarre, so it’s all good

    ————————————————————————————-

    Exactly! This is what I would expect from her by now. Yeah, it would be nice if she stoped making all those ridiculous faces and those dumb ass bipolar voices, but we should all be used to it by now. Nicki will never be normal. She is the black Lady Gaga! Weird as f*ck and entertaining!

    I actually think that all of Nicki’s videos have been entertaining. ‘Your Love’, ‘Right Thru Me’ were all pretty good. I actually like her videos better than her music. *shrugs* I am sure this video will be entertaining as well. Might not be what you ‘expected’ but it won’t disappoint I’m sure.

    Besides you can’t tell for sure if you are going to like something from a snippet. *shrugs*

  40. lovely January 13, 2011

    ill be playing her 10 years from now cuz i like her music
    i got alot of has-beens songs on my ipod and if they were to come back out 2day i would rock with them again unless they turn wack
    yall keep gettin it twisted the only reason alot of artist turn irrelevant is because they stop putting out new material not because people just stopped liking them
    and honesly i think this girl got the will power to stay around and be a mogul like jay so yall can keep counting down and hoping she goes away but ion see it happening

  41. KaVion January 13, 2011

    @DREW really? haha
    Yeahh i do think rihannaforever’s idea was really good..i like this idea to though, we won’t know until the video actually comes out..

    @TRUE BLUE
    Once again..THE SHADE
    You’re a sneaky as hell! haha

    @FUTURESTARDELUX
    Nicki has alot of serious songs on the album: Fly,Moment 4 Life,Save Me,Dear Old Nicki,Here I Am,I’m The Best & Catch Me

  42. Jordan January 13, 2011

    actually , the fairy god mother looking woman is her other alter ego Martha (when she talks in her London accent) It’s Roman’s mother from Romans Revenge. I’m antcipated about this video! i’m beyond ready and i’m also ready for fly with rihanna! they shot that video as well! great job nicki! keep up the good work! sn : lil kim is a washed up has been and will never be ANYMORE 😀 #ItsPinkFridayHoe!

  44. True Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ Blue January 13, 2011

    @ Kavion:

    That wasn’t shade, I was pointing that this video doesn’t look too extravagant considering what I would normally expect from her. I’d say the same if this were a Lady Gaga video, and I like Gaga.

  45. Alex T January 13, 2011

    AHHHH! I can’t wait!!!!

  46. KaVion January 13, 2011

    & im sorry but kim did NOT pave the way for anyone.
    the Mcs on My Mic Sounds Nice even admitted that after kim came out they felt pressured to s** up their lyrics & dress slutty..if anything she caused them to DIGRESS.
    How is rapping about p**** helping ANYONE.?
    She hasn’t even broken any records/barriers!
    Lauryn Hill Broke a Grammy record [5 grammys in 1 night]
    Queen Latifah & MC Lyte gave them a voice
    Missy is the most successful
    Lauryn,Nicki,Missy,Eve & Foxy have the highest first week sales
    Nicki has became the first female rapper to do MANY things.

    Wheres Kim??

  47. KaVion January 13, 2011

    @TRUE BLUE
    But your love & right thru me were VERY normal..M4L is actually her weirdest SOLO video yet

  48. True Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ Blue January 13, 2011

    ^^^ True, those were shockingly normal videos for Nicki. But I just expected more weirdness from her after making two toned down videos. As a matter of fact, she’s been more toned down than usual as of late (minus the red carpet outfits).

  49. KaVion January 13, 2011

    yea..she did say she was gonna be alot more toned down cus “she has a story to tell”

    HEY NICKI I LOVE YOU GIRL… IM JUST PRESSED CUZ MY LAST ALBUM FLOPPED, MY LAST SINGLE FLOPPED, MY NEW SONG THAT JUST CAME OUT IS SURE TO FLOP , AND PROBALLY WONT CHART …

  52. Loca January 13, 2011

    There is nothing fun or admirable about dumbing your self down or pretending to be what people want you to be. You can be quality and be successful if you are willing to fight for it and wait for it. There are no short cuts in life but some want it quick at any cost. Look at how hollywood turns out the people who loose themselves. Pay attention.

    Dear Old Nicki, please come back to me. I miss you….

  53. boom January 13, 2011

    Awwwe the fairy god mother is Martha (Romans mother)
    I love the Cinderella concept. Haters continue to hate!

  59. Jaa January 13, 2011

    Buffoonery!!!!!! Why is she always making those stupid faces?????? She looks constipated or like she s trying to hold that flatulence from coming out of that big ass!!!!!!!!!

  60. ~aMaZiNG.Lee~ January 13, 2011

    Probably the best song on the album, so this video needs to SERVE! And so far, I’m not impressed.

  61. NICK January 13, 2011

    its gona b cute, this is clips, NOT edited together yet..I LUV HER!!! PINK FRIDAY is hOTT

  62. JUSTBEINGHONEST January 13, 2011

  65. yo January 14, 2011

    You girls have to down Kim to uplift minaj? Cute.

    to be honest, minaj is getting played out. her antics are annoying now, it was cute a first… *shrugs*

  66. lola January 14, 2011

    FUTURESTARdelux

    Oh STFU! You have some damn nerve calling Nicki’s album s***** and making fun of her funny faces when Britney can’t sing worth a lick, has a computerized autotuned voice, and is a lazy, weak ass performer who can’t dance for s***! How dare you? How do you even know what real talent is when you have that bad mother of a b**** as an avatar?

    Anyway, the concept of this video looks great but wtf at that crazy ass face? I think that was just something funny for the beginning, but she’s really going to be more serious throughout the video. This song is too hot and the lyrics and her flow are dope. Stop it with that Lil KIM nonsense already. Lil Kim’s verses were written by Biggie before he died and ghost writers and she always had a good flow but her lyrics were always so shallow, nasty, shameful, and stupid! Like, are y’all serious she’s a good rapper? I guess since she was rapping “hardcore” y’all wanna act like she was a good lyricist.

  67. NICKIWOW January 15, 2011

    wow nicki looks gorgous and c** on now she the best theres ever been the queen b want get this crown back nick keep it up your the BEST oh ya love that part when she calls her self a b**** GNR!!1111!!!!!!@#$%^&

  68. Killa January 17, 2011

    This song is great and video looks good, cant wait….love you Nicki!

  69. _CallMEBARBIE January 20, 2011
