So, I love Nicki Minaj, but she looks more like a graphic design art project than a real person on the cover of this month’s BlackBook Magazine. Perhaps it’s an attempt at making a pop art reference, but Nicki looks more like a modern day comic book character to me. I do, however, have a soft spot for the baby blue eyeshadow and the bubblegum pink lipstick, as well as the growl this girl’s got going on. [Design Scene]
What do you all think of the musician’s cover shot for BlackBook Magazine?

Nicki Minaj does look a little crazy but i like it i feel like she can really pull it off.

I think the neon colors combined with the expression make the picture very overwhelming

I really like her style it’s out there but it’s hot.
guest
It looks a bit weird but she can rock it.
guest
That woman is full of win, everything she does.

Win.

Meh. I’m not crazy about this, or her in general, really… :/
guest
I think she tries too hard. Like GaGa, she relies on outrageous behavior and style to make up for her mediocre talent.
guest
@WhenHateIsTheOnlyOption@xanga - Mediocre talent? LMFAO.

I would love it if it wasn’t for the obviously fake green contacts.
guest
I like her teeth…
guest
not a fan of her in general, so fail
her ditzy chipmunk voice rapping style is rather annoying. rappers are suppose to be intimidating and I don’t think she is. I personally like rapping styles of trina, eve and lil kim where they roughly spit their words in your face whereas nicki is more omgomgduh lol
guest
I like it.
guest
It’s obnoxiously annoying. I’d feel embarrassed carrying this around.
guest
There’s too much about her that’s fake for me to find her attractive. Personally I’d like to see her drop the outrageous makeup every now and then.
guest
Nicki Minaj cannot fail, therefore, this is a win. An epic win. Just because it is Nicki and rocks everything. The end
guest
@P0RCELA1N_D0LL@xanga - I’m just wondering, have you heard most of her album? There are many tracks where she goes “hard”. Roman’s Revenge for an example. “Did it on em” is another example. All Lil Kim and Trina do (from what I’ve heard, I’ve never listened to them that much) is cuss every other word, but of course, I’m unfamiliar with their work, so I may be wrong.

Ugly..and scary.
guest
@kinseydanielle@xanga - I heard her other songs but I think she ruined the roman’s revenge song with the ending part where she tries to sound british.
guest
Her fro rocks.
guest
@P0RCELA1N_D0LL@xanga - I didn’t like that part either, I always cut it off before it comes on.. lol I was just asking though
guest
She looks like her normal self to me hehe. Never seen her look “normal”. And that’s bubble gum pink? Looks purple to me.
guest
@kinseydanielle@xanga - :)
I’m not into her style because I think she is copying my all time favorite rappers’ tongue twister style.

Of course she doesn’t look like a real person. Have you seen her album cover? She doesn’t seem to care much for natural beauty. She likes bright, plastic, crazy shit. That is just Nicki.
guest
Frankly, I think it’s awesome.
guest
it’s nicki minaj, so automatic fail.

I can’t tell if I like it or not
guest

guest

guest
Only thing I like about this cover is her hair.
guest
WIN <3 love nicki minaj xoxoxoxooxoxox
& rihanna to
guest
Looks like the makeup in every single issue of Seventeen Magazine. Blech.
guest
What’s going on with her eyebrows…?
guest
I think she’s annoying…she is so hyped up, she has only been in hit songs…doesnt have any number 1′s of her own.
guest
FAILURE! the word is FAILURE! There is no such noun as fail!
guest
Nicki looks absolutely stunning, as always! Even if she does sometimes look a little extra animated, I think it only enhances her image.

@bAbiiExxPiNay@xanga - @BethyRose@xanga - Agreed 100%
guest
i love it.
guest
That’s just her persona. It’s not just a look she’s going for on this…it’s naturally how she is. I love it.
guest
i love it, shes my fav.
guest
She’s the only person I know who can rock a psychopath look.
guest
If she didn’t do this ‘ish, would you even remember her name? Exactly.
