Minaj explained, "I guess I am pop culture just because what I'm doing seems to be popular. When people want to do what you're doing, it's kind of popular. I don't ask girls to wear pink hair; they just do it. It's not about black or white; I think it's just a statement. It doesn't matter which colour you are; it's just a statement of being fearless."
Nicki then went on to respond to comments that people have been making about her trying to be like Lady Gaga. She added, "That's just who I am. I was a theatre major; I studied theatre.” Nicki Minaj was recently praised by former X Factor contestant Cher Lloyd for being the only relevant female rapper. Nicki Minaj was recently confirmed to be playing this year’s V Festival.
