Is Nicki Minaj going through an identity crisis? | IOL Entertainment

INTERNATIONAL RAPPER NICKI MINAJ HAS LEFT HER FANS VERY CONFUSED AFTER AN EXCERPT OF HER ELLE MAGAZINE INTERVIEW WHERE SHE CLAIMS IT'S "OKAY TO KEEP YOUR LEGS CLOSED" WAS SHARED ON SOCIAL MEDIA.

Her comments came as a shock to the Barbz and her casual fans, as the 'Only' hitmaker built her career on being sex-positive and empowering women to do whatever they want with their bodies.

During the interview she also made reference to "modern-day prostitutes: She said: "I didn't realise how many girls were modern-day prostitutes ... Whether you’re a stripper, or whether you’re an Instagram girl —these girls are so beautiful and they have so much to offer."

Adding that her selling sex appeal is different from selling sex.


News of Minaj's newfound "know your worth" ideology comes days after the release of her promo single "Rich Sex" on Monday — which includes lyrics such as "A-a-ass out, p***y fat, point me to a rich n**ga".

Minaj also feels that she may have contributed to the influx of girls who "sell" sex appeal online.

The contradictory nature of her music and the interview set Twitterverse on fire, and many questioned if Minaj is going through an identity crisis.





Twitter user @SoualiganAmazon made a thread breaking down the problematic nature of the "Chun Li" hitmakers statements, emphasising that Minaj has centred her career around the male gaze when it came to sex-related things.

^Nicki has ALWAYS had an identity crisis. I think she has deeper issues from her childhood than we think. I myself personally think she was molested/raped by her father when she was younger. I think the Jelani situation and Remy blowing it up more, made her be reminded even more and started breaking down herself.

They say most pedophiles themselves were molested/raped. It happened with R-Kelly even. If it happened to her brother which is likely there is a strong chance it happened to Nicki herself by her father or a family member.

This is her breaking down and i don't think its just looking for attention or simply being a bytch. She even was at the BET Awards years ago talking about almost dying(suicide) and the audience laughed. But i think she was being serious.

She's baiting Cardi. The funny thing is that all Cardi has to do is tweet "support sex workers" or something like that and she'll win this debate outright on social media.

Nicki spent her career rapping about everything Cardi is rapping about. Now that she's nearly 40 she wants to...do what exactly? Clean up her image? Doesn't seem like it based on the videos and album cover. So what's the point of this, besides attempting to bait Cardi to send subs.
