Nicki Minaj, born Onika Tanya Maraj on December 8, 1982 in Saint James, Trinidad and Tobago, is an American rapper, singer, songwriter, voice actress and TV personality. As mentioned, she was born in Trinidad and Tobago, but she moved to New York when she was five years old. Nicki started her career singing backup vocals for some New York rappers but she became famous when her debut album Pink Friday came out in 2010. This album rose to be number one on the U.S. Billboard 200 and has been certified Platinum by the RIAA. Nicki’s second album Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded has become one of the best selling albums of 2012, selling more than a million copies worlwide.

Nicki is currently on tour promoting her second studio album.

Although she has been long rumored to have done a lot of plastic surgery procedures, Nicki Minaj vigorously denies going under the knife. But, is she telling the truth?

Analyzing some of her pictures it seems like she has had gluteoplasty – butt implants inserted – which made her butt look much bigger and rounder than before. It is obvious that it is not caused by her gaining some extra weight because the rest of her body looks the same. She also seems to have had a boob job done, because when you look at her pictures before becoming famous her breasts seem smaller. Rumors are that she enhanced her nose, too. It used to be a bit wider and now it is thin and pointy.

Do you believe Nicki when she says she hasn’t gone under the knife? Tell us your opinion.
