Nicki Minaj Steamy Shot for V Magazine

Trinidad native Nicki Minaj looks wild and sexy in the latest issue of V Magazine! Check out some excerpts from Nicki Minaj V Magazine January 2011 interview:

“I just always want to do ‘me’, but ‘me’ changes every day…I would crumple up and die if I had to wake up and be the same person every day. I don’t silence those voices anymore. I just let them speak.”

“I’m an entertainer – I like to make people laugh,” The busy Barbie added. “Some will hate it and some will love it, but all will remember it. And that’s what I want: to be remembered.

Even if I’m saying something hard-core or controversial, there’s always a touch of humor, and if you don’t like it, it means I’m stirring things up inside of you.”

Nicki Minaj Covers King Magazine

She’s finishing up an uber-successful year, and it looks like Nicki Minaj is poised to begin 2011 with a big bang.

The "Young Money" rapper will appear on the cover of the March/April issue of King magazine, and she’s looking mighty fine in the photo spread.

Minaj told King she’s in the market for a man, and she has a specific type of guy that she’s looking for.

"I look for someone who is calm, someone who is strong enough to not have to win every argument, someone who allows a woman to be her crazy self and someone with a conscience not to feel less of a man. You know, someone who is able to honor his woman but also bring out the freak in his woman... just being super aggressive when the time is right."
