Nicki MinajI have to have the sensibility to keep Versace company in good shape because there are so many people working for it, and we need to have the company grow and also be relevant. So I work very hard for all that to happen, and I wish people would know me for that and be satisfied.
Nicki MinajI am not a girl that can ever be defined. I am not fly, I am levitation..I represent an entire generation!
Nicki MinajMy advice to women in general: Even if you're doing a nine-to-five job, treat yourself like a boss. Not arrogant, but be sure of what you want - and don't allow people to run anything for you without your knowledge.
Nicki MinajI'm bout that fast money, money ain't got no patience. But if them boys come run like you on probation.

Nicki MinajRoman’s a little gay boy who lives in me. And every time I talk he sort of just appears and I tell him, ‘Roman, you know, stop it, you’ve gone mad, I tell you, mad.’ He’s an outlet to say what I need to say but sometimes don’t want to.

Nicki MinajThere are sexual things that I do that aren’t for a man. I feel empowered sometimes by being sexy and being comfortable enough to be sexy on camera — a lot of woman [sic] struggle with that. But, there are some days that I don’t want anyone to see me. I’m just a regular girl. Some days, I’m super-strong; some days, I’m super-insecure. But, I don’t really identify with any particular label. I just speak my truth, and if people like it, they like it, and if they bash it, they bash it.
Nicki MinajWhen I grew up I saw females doing certain things, and I thought I had to do that exactly.

Nicki MinajWhen people see my makeup, they think all types of crazy things that I'm doing to my skin, but it's makeup. It's the weirdest thing.

Nicki MinajI've gotten tons of awards and I believe when it's my time to get a Grammy, I'll get a Grammy.
Nicki MinajI don't want to hear any drama [about me]. I don't want any negativity. I don't want to hear what's on the blog. I don't care what others say about me.
Nicki MinajPeople face difficulties, no matter who you are. I faced difficulties with a lot of things. I face opposition every day, but I didn't kill myself and now, thank God, I'm here.
