Nicki Minaj Dumps Stylist, Makeup Artist to be Taken Seriously

*Nicki Minaj has graduated from whatever her stylists are attempting to do with her.

Unsatisfied with the recent looks, the singer/rapper fired her stylist, hairdresser and makeup artist all at the same time.

Nicki is desperate to be taken seriously as an artist, a source told the UKs The Sun.

Shes fired her long-standing hairdresser who has been responsible for some of her crazy hairstyles over the years. Shes also fired her stylist. Nicki feels that now shes done with American Idol she can finally be taken seriously and release a proper hip-hop album.

Maybe it was a coincidence or a calculated move, but the decision to get rid of everyone happened after rumors flared about her having plastic surgery.

If you havent noticed, her look was beginning to look a little toned down, as if she was trying to be less Barbie hmm.
