  18. avicutez April 6, 2011

    @ Blancofamily

    I agree with this.

    I get tired of her with her stupid colored wigs and wack outfits that you nobody back in the Islands wears.

    But when she’s stripped down like this, absolutely beautiful.

  19. Trina April 6, 2011

    Kimmy WHO ?? That plastic wannabe white b**** AKA Lil HIM will kill herself after seein’ this pic !! IT’S BARBIE B**** !!

  20. Blanco Family April 6, 2011

    @TRINA nice to see lil kim’s on ur mind

  21. Trina April 6, 2011

    @ BLANCO FAMILY Maybe because the Nicki haters came first to diss her, as if their plastic fav was better !

  22. KaVion April 6, 2011

    Damn, this is one of the most beautiful pictures I’ve seen of her. She really does look gorgeous, I actually agree with @Blanco Family, she should keep this look.

    Plus, it’s getting released on my birthday 🙂

    Lol, I feel like you guys know TOO much about me.

  23. Lifee April 6, 2011

    @Trina
    KIM. You know, Nicki’s blueprint KIM. Keep this cute and keep my girls name out ur fonts boo.

    anywayssss..

    Onika looks nice here (from side view). Wish she would get rid of these tired wigs though. It’s time to see the real her behind all THAT.

  24. ummm April 6, 2011

    Are ya’ll looking at the same picture as me?
    Chile….. she looks foolish. Look at her mouth! I see what she’s trying to do but it didn’t work at all. She looks stuck and slow in the face -_-

  25. ghk April 6, 2011

    🙂 ~~ M eet ing Ri ch * c/-0 m~~ is the c lub where she met her honey. It’s a place gathers CEOs, pro athletes, doctors, lawyers, investors, entrepreneurs, beauty queens, fitness models and Hollywood celebrities!

  26. MrGentleman April 6, 2011

    All of you krim fans will stay angry. Soon as you seen Nicki’s name you ran in here as fast as you can, sadly.. You can’t think of nothing to say.

    Nicki is shitting.. and all of you bitter b****** will be dealing.

  27. KaVion April 6, 2011

    @LIFEE
    Nicki has a lot of good hair. She’s Trinidadian and if you’ve seen the Letting Go video, that’s her real hair.

  28. Diane April 6, 2011

    You can all Nicki FAKE, PHONY, PLASTIC, or BALONEY, but you can’t say she ain’t getting that MUNY!

  29. Blanco Family April 6, 2011

    can we just stop this >>> ” kim is ugly,kim is wack,kim is jealous” like seriously okay i have my views on nicki. im keepin em to myself cuz ive expressed them on here and im nt gna keep doing it like a broken record. ALL OF US KNOW Lil Kim is the blue print. and is one if nicki’s influences we know nicki remixed most of kims biggest hits and biggie’s in her come up days. do not front. lil kim inspired ur fave. dont play urself. sure kim and nicki are mad at each other. but that doesnt take away neither of their sucess. smh.
    all this KIM IS OLD s*** is getting so tired

  30. Chits April 6, 2011

    Nicki looks gorgeous..lil K** could never

  31. Chits April 6, 2011

    @blanco family You Mad that KRIM is never going to bs relevant again? That butch dropped a mixtape and no one cared lmfao.. She’s back to sucking c**** and owing the IRS money

  32. Chits April 6, 2011

    @Trina Krims stand will STAY MAD! that’s how we like it!!

  33. Chits April 6, 2011

    @kavion NO NICKI OWNS HER CRAZY KOOKY IMAGE , KRIM IS NOT THE INVENTER OF THE DAMN COLORED WIG .. #STOPIT

  34. Chits April 6, 2011

    @UMMMM B**** #BOOM BYE! NICKI IS SLAYING , YOUR JUST GONNA HAVE TO DEAL WITH IT 🙂

  35. Chits April 6, 2011

    @Mrgentleman RIGHT!! THEY WILL DEAL!!

  36. KaVion April 6, 2011

    @CHITS
    Trust, I wasn’t agreeing with Blanco Family about that. Nicki’s style is much more crazy and animated than Kim’s. I’m just saying I like her more like this.

  37. DOPE April 6, 2011

  53. Hudson Morrigan April 6, 2011

    At least she is not making one of her idiotic faces…

  54. HoustonGirl April 6, 2011

    The picture look forced.If this was on America’s Next Top Model Tyra would of laughed her ass off.

  55. Kisses April 6, 2011

    I get what she was going for, but it came out all types of wrong…

  56. VFB April 6, 2011

    Now this high fashion looks good on Nicki! Hope she keeps it this way. Maybe she should try her acting skills.

  57. GangsterA April 6, 2011

    Gorgeous #Get’em Nicki

  58. Blanco Family April 6, 2011

    i gave nicki props… then i suggested you guys stop dissing kim and promote positivity and you all come at me..and bring up other topics that werent even mentioned. wow you guys have hate in ur hearts.. nicki’s style came from lil kim so u cant diss lil kim.. nicki minaj was not a barbie when she started… so stop playing urselves

  59. Lurker April 6, 2011

    I think the fact that in this pose, that her rear’s silhouette and her b****** are more ‘on display’ speaks VOLUMES.

    She has beautiful skin AND a beautiful face (and at times, really nice hairstyles) but we don’t get that here. We get “the booty” and the “b******” in a magazine geared towards women. 😐

    I’m glad Willow Smith’s picture was more face-forward, showing us who she is and not what body parts should/shouldn’t represent her.
