Bringing her unique ways to the publication’s latest installment, Nicki Minaj pretties up the cover of the February/March 2012 issue of Wonderland
The “Stupid Hoes” hitmaker sports her colorful pink coif on the Matt Irwin shot front page while chatting about her adoration for Barbie and life in the UK.
Highlights from Miss Minaj’s interview are as follows.
On the UK:
“I was born in London in my past life, no one can tell me different. I probably was like a queen in London, I was probably the people’s queen that fought for lives … and I probably started off as a maid and then was just, like, really revolutionary and moved all my [Barbies] into the big queen mansion.”
On her real life and stage persona:
“Oh they’re definitely two completely different people. Obviously what I would wear at home is not what I would wear up on stage and I think, when I’m at home it’s a way more introspective character and I think the person people see on stage is anything but. I watch a lot of Judge Judy. And I watch a lot of Forensic Files. And I cook – I cook spaghetti really, really good; I cook macaroni and cheese really, really good; I cook chicken really, really good.”
On being obsessed with Barbie:
“I feel like Barbie is great because it doesn’t only focus on beauty – you have Barbies that work, they have tons of different jobs now. And they come in different shades, which I love, and different hairstyles. So I think that they’ve gotten to the point where they’re making girls feel like it’s OK not to look like or be like the traditional Barbie. Now in terms of a body image, even male action figure dolls are cut up more than the average man – it’s just how people make dolls!”
