Nicki Minaj has revealed that she has no plans to tone down the explicit content in her songs. The rapper insisted that she will not compromise her lyrics after achieving mainstream success, which has included obtaining a younger fan base. "Why do people ask me to lose swear words? Do people ask Eminem to lose swear words," Minaj said to The Guardian . "Do they ask Lil Wayne to lose swear words? I did an interview the other day and when I saw it back I'm like, 'Why the hell did she make the interview all about some goddamned kids?' "It was crazy. Five-year-old children shouldn't be the subject of a Nicki Minaj interview." She added: "Don't you think it's strange, though? I used to see Eminem in concert and people were bringing their little brother or whatever. Rex Features / Jon Beretta "Nobody stops them and says, 'Would you stop swearing, Eminem, for loads of money?' I don't get it, I don't get it. "On

News: Nicki Minaj Addresses Plastic Surgery, False Teeth Accusations Monday, Apr 30, 2012 10:30AM Written by Cyrus Langhorne Young Money star Nicki Minaj may be the biggest eye candy in hip-hop these days, however, the platinum-selling rapper recently showed off a disinterest in addressing plastic surgery-related questions. In an interview with The Guardian , her interviewer reveals Minaj showed no interest in discussing speculated body enhancement topics. Underneath the pneumatic bosom and bottom (rumoured to be surgically enhanced, which she denies), the gold bangles, the screaming pink and green make-up, there's a rather delicate beauty - lovely big features in a small face. She refuses to talk about her body these days and looks aghast if it's suggested anything might have been worked on. "Your teeth are beautiful," I say. "Thank you," she says. "Are they natural?" She gives me a ferocious stare "Are your teeth natural?" she replie

People News Apr 30, 2012, 5:01 GMT Nicki Minaj Nicki Minaj thinks she has 'bigger balls' than boys do. The 'Starships' singer - who is renowned for her raunchy lyrics about sex - claims she will no longer refer to female genitalia in her songs because she can use alternative words, but will continue to swear because male rappers such as Eminem do. She said: 'Am I determined to out-curse the boys? Yes. Definitely. That's why I say stuff like, 'D**k in your face', because I don't even wanna refer to female genitalia. 'I just feel I have bigger balls than the boys. I used to see Eninem in concert and people were bringing their little brother or whatever. Nobody stops them and say, 'Would you stop swearing Eminem, for loads of money?' I don't get it.

At the time, Minaj said of her lyrics, I don't want children cursing. I'm very strict on my nieces and my little brother. They have to listen to clean versions of music.

Rapper Nicki Minaj has urged parents to protect their children from the explicit lyrics on her albums. The Super Bass hitmaker's records include adult-only versions of her mainstream tracks, which are cleaned up for radio and TV use. And Minaj insists she would be horrified if parents weren't stopping their children from listening to the X-rated renditions of her famous songs. She tells Britain's The Guardian, "I don't want children cursing. I'm very strict on my nieces and my little brother. They have to listen to clean versions of music." But the outlandish star refuses to scrap swearing on her albums - insisting it's sexist to expect a female rapper to be clean-cut while her male peers continue to curse. She adds, "Why do people ask me to lose swear words? Do people ask Eminem to lose swear words? Do they ask Lil Wayne to lose swear words? Nobody stops them and says 'Would you stop swearing... for the children, please?'"

Rap sensation Nicki Minaj has lashed out at editors of a top US tabloid for suggesting she shut down her Twitter.com account after coming under fire for disparaging comments she had made about her father. The Super Bass hitmaker quit tweeting earlier this month after a fansite leaked a new track online, and she recently added that "a voice in my head" told her to delete the page. But a reporter at the New York Daily News questioned the real motives behind her dramatic Twitter exit and suggested that backlash from a recent interview she did with US news show Nightline - in which she confessed she "wanted to kill" her abusive dad Omar Miraj as a child - may have played a part in her decision. However, the hip-hop star, who returned to Twitter this week, has taken aim at the newspaper and branded the allegations "lies". In a series of posts on Friday, she writes, "Ha! The Daily News said I deleted my twitter after being criticized 4 saying I want2 kill m

(FameFlynet) Nicki Minaj 's new music video doesn't make a lot of sense, but no one's really going to care. Bikinis and jiggling pectorals for everyone! The Anthony Mandler-directed clip released Thursday evening is about as coherent as the song itself, a dizzying RedOne-produced club banger that makes up with catchiness what it lacks in originality. Of course Minaj riffs on the song's title, with computer-generated spacecrafts delivering a bikini-clad Nicki to a secluded beachfront where men with uncomfortably pillowy pecs greet her in some sort of tribal-lite ceremony. She's an alien... but she's a sexy alien. The video gets progressively trippier as it goes on, with kaleidoscopic effects rendering each of Nicki's thrusts and gyrations in candy-c

It was back in March when pictures from the set first made their way online , and now that the video is finally here, it was clearly worth the wait.

Nicki Minaj's video for her new single 'Starships' might be 'too saucy for TV'. The eccentric rapper and singer has revealed there has been a slight delay in getting it out because she wanted to do a re-edit, but claims the final result may be more explicit than television audiences can handle. She told Capital FM radio: 'It's officially done. There was just one tiny little thing I wanted to change but I know at the beginning of next week you guys will see it. It may be too saucy for TV.' Nicky recently claimed she had become pop culture because the music she is creating is 'popular' with many people. She said: 'I guess I am pop culture, just because what I'm doing seems to be popular. I don't ask girls to wear pink hair; they just do it. It's not about black or white; I think it's just a statement. It does not matter which colour you are, it's just a statement of being fearless.'

Were obsessed with Nicki Minaj s London wardrobe: the green wigs, Pink rubber catsuits and bondage harness skirts so were a bit surprised to find out her fashion icon is er, The Queen. I bet her closet is crazy, Id love to go through it. I bet the dresses would fit me too shes like a little, tiny ladybug, she told The Sun this week. Nicki, whos here to promote her Roman Reloaded album, says her Pink obsession is all down to growing up too poor for her mum and dad to be able to afford girly clothes for her. When I was younger I didnt have much financially, like we couldnt afford a lot of stuff and I remember seeing little girls rooms on TV and theyd all be Pink , she explains. I didnt have my own room, I shared with my brother, so I would have this daydream and imagine that one day I could have my own room and it would all be Pink , like Cinderellas. So I guess Pink takes me back to that time and it just feels euphoric when I wear it. I love it. No tongues with Madonna The singer,

People News Apr 24, 2012, 21:01 GMT Nicki Minaj Nicki Minaj has returned to twitter - but has lost her 11 million followers. The 'Superbass' hitmaker deleted her account just nine days ago after becoming angry with her tracks being leaked online, but has now returned to the social networking site under the same name @nickiminaj. All of her original tweets have been restored, but she has yet to tweet since she has returned. Nicki claimed earlier this week she did plan to return to the site at some point because she felt bad for her fans, who she calls Barbz. She said: 'Reinstate my account? I don't know yet.

Dear Barbz, your leader has returned. After a nine-day Twitter hiatus, Nicki Minaj has come back to the social networking site minus several million followers, however. It was April 15 when Nicki drove her legion of fans crazy by disappearing from the site on which she was among the most popular in the world. "A voice in my head told me to delete my Twitter and that's what I did," Minaj said during an interview in the U.K. "I had 11 million followers and I hope they will wait for me." At press time, Nicki had 125,000 followers after only a short time back, but it's a safe bet that number will grow exponentially within the coming days.
