Nicki Minaj Channels African Tribal Queen For Complex

Yesterday Complex unveiled the first cover-star for their April/May Issue (Checkout the Justin Bieber cover here). Now the magazine has revealed their second cover-star and it happens to be ‘Starships‘ rapper Nicki Minaj, clad in a Ralph Lauren top.

Sporting traditional African tribal makeup and donning an angel bleached white wig, with bangs, the 29-year-old is featured on two different covers for the Special 10th Anniversary Edition — one serious and one not-so-serious — lensed by Christian Anwander.

Nicki reveals to the magazine where she sees herself in the next 10 years.

“In 2022, I’ll definitely be married and I’ll definitely have my two children… OK, I might have three, but I do want at least one boy… No, no, no. I don’t think I even need a girl. I need a boy though”, Nicki shares with magazine.

Nicki Minaj Rocks Cotton Candy Hair For Allure

Avant-garde rapper Nicki Minaj is all about the big fake hair on the cover of the April issue of Allure magazine.

Showing a bit a cleavage, the ‘Starships’ rapper dons a larger-than-life cotton candy wig, with matching pink lips, on the Michael Thompson-shot cover.

The 29-year-old reveals to the magazine of a chat she had with Jay-Z about world domination.

“I never thought about music as just being the end-all, be-all. I always looked at it like a business, something that I could create an empire out of. So that’s why I’m only about to put out my second album and I’m already thinking about this. I had a little conversation with Jay-Z at the Victoria’s Secret fashion show. He said, ‘Congratulations on all your success.’ And I was like, ‘Yeah, I’m coming for you. I’m coming for your spot, Mr. Mogul’”, Nicki shares with Allure.
