Hot! or Hmm… Nicki Minaj’s New Toned Down Look

With a well-received judging gig on American Idol, and a new hairstylist to boot, it’s been practically impossible not to notice a recent change in Nicki Minaj’s appearance.

The once pink haired, over the top make-up wearing, costume donning rapstress many have grown accustomed to, seems to have ditched the “gimmick” for a dialed back beauty and style regimen.

At her MAC event in Beverly Hills, Nicki opted for a flirty white Alexander McQueen Textured Stretch-Knit Dress and Fendi Fendista pumps. Her makeup skewed soft and simple. Her wig was blonde with dark roots (presumably for a more natural effect).

The new look seems refreshing, but who can forget Nicki’s outlandish past?

While I am enjoying the more demure side of Nicki Minaj, there are folks who are a bit disappointed. It seems they miss her theatrics, and her over-the-top ensembles. They’re simply not on board with the new look.
