Nicki Minaj can’t fool me. She has a sexy even if cosmetically altered body with a round ass I’d love to get into, but I’m more into nice faces than nice bodies and all the caked-on makeup in the world can’t fool me into thinking she looks anything better than ghetto average.
She’s apparently going for the black, or brown, Barbie doll look. And, as far as pop culture’s fake fashion world goes, I guess it’s working for her. But when it comes to real physical beauty; the kind you’re born with as opposed to the kind you brush on; it’s counterproductive.
I’m not going to say her face necessarily looks like that of a transexual man because it doesn’t, but it looks more like one than most girls I see. That’s mainly because of the pointy nose and prominent jawbone, which contradict the cute femininity her marketed image suggests.
She’s not afraid to make a crazy face or widen her eyes to cartoonish proportions on camera, and those unguarded lapses go to her credit, but I’d like to see her go all-natural by washing off all that ridiculous make-up and ridding herself of all the phony accessories.
