Nicki Minaj Receives ‘Teacher Of The Year’ Award

Published: Monday 19th Dec 2011 by David

Maths.

English.

Science.

Rap?

While the latter might not be a subject you or anyone you know may have taken at school, South Florida’s ‘Better Education Place‘  organization have caused some controversy by awarding Pop belle Nicki Minaj their ‘Teacher Of The Year Award‘,  in recognition of the influence they say she has on the state’s students.

Full story below…

Judged alongside actual teachers, Minaj and her mentor/fellow lyricist  Lil Wayne received the honorary degrees for  the following:

1.Ability to capture and maintain attention.

2. Ability to transform behavior ‘or make them do as you do‘.

3. Ability to move their audience or create interaction.

4.Ability to inspire, effective use of language, use of memory devices.

The organization’s CEO Melvin El explained:

They’re teaching them better — in many cases — than teachers in the classrooms. Of course they were waning on the content — they weren’t teaching the things that would make kids successful in life, but again, the point that my team was making is that they’re teaching kids in an abundant way.

Cheeky!

While we completely understand the idea behind giving both she Wayne this award, this is undoubtedly a slap to the faces of any real educators out there with an organic passion to inspire the students they genuinely want the best for.

However, the fact that remains that some things – like drive and ambition- just can’t be taught in the classroom and are two inspiring qualities that  have set both performers apart from most of their contemporaries time and time again.

After all, if what they were doing was easy- you’d be doing it too.

So what do you think?

Is she deserving of this award?

    So if this organisation comes across a hooker who is successfully teaching a lot of youngsters how to turn tricks on the street and make good money at it “in abundance”, will said hooker be awarded this prize?

    It seems like this organisation is using Nicki to gain some publicity.

    SMDH.

    WTFFFFFFFFFFFFFF??????? Like seriously??? I hope this is a joke.

  8. ojie king December 19, 2011

    I agree with I.D. It looks like a publicity ploy to be frank. Teacher of the Year?? If it was say, ” Most Inspirational Celebrity” or ” The Celebrity who preaches hard-work and dedication to young girls”, i will admit that she deserves that because any time i see her live performances she tells girls not be lazy and work hard, so i guess its the phrasing that matters in this case

    @I SLAY TOILET SEATS

    Sweetie, how old are you? Clearly not old enough to know better. You may be SEATED.

    Before anyone else mentions Kim’s name, you might wanna do some research.

    Kim has had her own College Credit course at Sryacuse University called ‘Queen B 101’. She’s one of only THREE rappers to ever have a college course based on THEM. The other 2 being Pac and Biggie. OOP!
    Congrats to Nicki tho.
    *files nails*

    @I SLAY SAM HATERS You ugly troll Lil Kim has her on college course at Syracuse University
    if that aint telling kids to stay in school then I don’t know what is. It surely not some random school handing out a random award to some hood rat for press. Next time do your research before you start typing out your ass!!

  13. RDK December 19, 2011

    gratz to nicki.

  14. Those That Cannot Do, Stan December 19, 2011

    You know you’re f***** when you’re attending a school that has to make such an obvious plug for attention.

  15. Boo December 19, 2011

    FUCKERY AT IT’S FINEST

  16. ChrisBBeliever2 December 19, 2011

    You shouldn’t have to stoop this low for attention. I rather go unknown.

  17. maria December 19, 2011

    they awarded her this? Wasn’t this fake b**** popping her fake ass in Big Sean video? Wasn’t this b**** dissing lil kim? Her whole album was about how “squeaky clean” her puss box is. She talks about d*cks.

    And she gets this award just for saying stay in school? Many artists and movie stars tell kids to stay in school.

    Fake hair, color eyes, fake ass, b******. What does this chick have this real on her body? If she was “happy” with herself she wouldn’t be completely fake body wise…. She wouldn’t “sell” out to get popular. She have clearly changed from her mix-tape days, I use to be a fan BUT her screaming over a backtrack on stage how completely turned me off.

    Her next album will be 100% pop and auto-tone “singing”.

  18. jill December 19, 2011

    She’s overrated…………………………………..I hope R&B and real Hip Hop comes back………Missy Elliot is in the studio with Timbaland…….. Album due in 2012……..Lil kim 2012…….Do I spell competition? Missy deserve this award not this b****…..

    I think lil kim was right when she said Nicki don’t want any other female rappers out……She wants it to be only her…….

    There’s this woman on youtube Brianna she’s a great rapper gives nicki a run for her money……

  19. john December 19, 2011

    I liked nicki before all this clown s*** started…….

  20. haterzstaypressed December 19, 2011

    @Maria and every Kim stan that has the audacity to talk about plastic surgery and Nicki being fake. Really? Do you want to go there? Shall we talk about Kim’s surgeries since 1995 or shall we ignore it? Nah you can’t because Kim has had so many surgeries and body modifications that she is unrecognizable. Fake blonde hair. fake blue/green/yellow eyes, fake ass, hips, tits, nose, chin, and cheek implants to boot. She f***** up her entire body – she bleached herself from a pretty brown girl to some crappy looking non natural skin tone. All because she wanted to look like Pamela Anderson or Anna Nicole Smith – she equates bombshell beauty with fake-titted white women.

    And you call Nicki fake?

    HAVE A F****** SEAT. DON’T DO IT BECAUSE IMPLYING THAT KIM IS “REAL” IS LAUGHABLE.

    With that said,

    I give credit to Nicki because she does tell little girls to stay in school and work hard. Other than that, I don’t believe she should have gotten this honor because lyrically her songs are X-Rated. At the same time she never claimed to be a role model. So whateves…
