Cop a gander of Nicki Minaj!
The Queen of Rap covers the December issue of Vogue Magazine.
Arriving as the countdown to the December 8 release of her new album ‘Pink Friday 2’ draws near, Onika’s regal spread sees her pose it up solo and alongside her toddler son, who she affectionately calls Papa Bear.
Beyond the Norman Jean Roy lensed shoot, the femcee opens up about her incoming LP, motherhood, and not endorsing “unhealthy” outlooks on “body positivity.”
Head pics and quotes:
Speaking on what fans can expect from ‘Pink Friday 2,’ Minaj said:
“When I look back at a lot of my music, I’m like, Oh, my God, where was the me in it? So for this album, I went back to the old game plan.”
On Her Image:
“I just looked at a video that I posted on Instagram when I was 25, and I would f*cking pay to look like that right now. But today I can say that I’m at peace with who I am and how I look.”
On Body Positivity & Health Awareness:
“I have to say this as a Black woman, though I’ve made certain choices for my son, to not give him sweets and candy and juices, because of illnesses like diabetes that run in our community. I’m not in favor of body positivity if it means unhealthy bodies. That’s bull. It’s not believable, so let’s stop pretending. Recently I had to get a breast reduction, and actually I love it. I used to want a bigger butt, and now I look back and realize how silly that was. So—love your curves, and love your non-curves. There’s nothing wrong with any of it.”
With that, what are…
She looks dead in the face but not deader than this era. Pink Flopday 2!!!
She’s trying to match the aesthetic of the current state of her career 🤭🤭🤭
She must be styling herself because none of these are giving VOGUE. And still no lead single for Thai “amazing” album she’s about to release? 🤭🤭🤭

Super freaky girl was the lead for this album DUD
The only way I see nikki being successful as she used to be if she made peace a song about peace and unity and the rap female community.
She looks good and have good advice. I’m really happy for her this era
Just say you had to deflate your BBL to avoid bursting “at the seams” on the delivery table AND have your implants removed to breastfeed (+ prevent Lyme disease). Hips look more proportionate now, so kudos on beating body dysmorphia. Just smile more…. yours is one of THE prettiest smiles in the industry. No need to be gangsta to rap. Ask Lauryn Hill.
Following cardi even down to the baby 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Cardi could never
Meg could never
Latto could never
City Girls could never
S*** Redd could never
Lola Broke could never
GloRilla could never
Lil Kim could never….
But yet Cardi did it first and of course the cabbage patch version of “Barbie” complained and cried because she wanted to be first and got looked over. Shut and sit down…you’re mad.
did what first even before Vogue came out and debunked yall nonsense i knew Nicki was the first black rapper to do a solo Vogue American issue cover.
That’s your problem , always concerned about the next chick. Congratulate your girl and keep it pushing the f*** y’all barbz be on
Pics are boring. Nicki isn’t a high fashion girl.
The same face in every pic, good for her but not every celeb needs to be in vogue.
It’s a shame she’s been so bad mind, all her wins are just meh.
Loving this era for Nicki. Such a beautiful woman and these pictures really highlight that🥹❤️
I’m not a huge fan of Nicki, but I congratulate her on her Vogue cover. Its a big deal. And what better magazine to launch an album with, than US Vogue.
She looks good.
