I get that Nicki Minaj gets billed as the “black Barbie” or the Lady Gaga of female rappers, but the outfit she wore for VH1 Divas Salute the Troops is just whack. I love all of these colors separately, and to be honest, the colors in her tights and dress are a lot of fun, but this ensemble would work better if Nicki took it down a notch. I’m getting a total Willy Wonka candy vibe, and the poodle hair just isn’t doing it for me.

What do you think of Nicki’s outfit? Is it offensively overdone or does it suit her just right? See more images on Just Jared.
