Nicki Minaj thinks she's nothing like Lady Gaga

  • April 10, 2012

Nicki Minaj doesn't think she's anything like wig-wielding, RedOne-produced, Laurieann Gibson-col­lab­or­at­ing, costume-carrying, alter-ego-creating Lady Gaga.

"Offends me? No. Irks me? Yes. First of all I’m a rapper," she told ABC's Nightline about being compared to the popstar.

"Wigs? Every female in this game wears wigs. Over the top costumes? Nah… Try again. It’s getting tired now to me," she sighed.

"Gaga’s a fantastic artist," she conceded. "She’s paved her way. She’s opened her own lane, but I feel like I have my own lane and we never cross… Ever!"
