Hip Hop Artist and Fashion Icon Nicki Minaj

by John Henry

Hip hop artist and fashion icon Nicki Minaj’s popularity just keeps growing. This is due in no small part to her key role on American Idol. As a judge on the wildly popular show, Minaj has made her presence known in a variety of ways including well publicized friction with pop icon Mariah Carey.


While Minaj is emerging as one of the most recognized faces in the world, her path to stardom has not been an easy one. Minaj attended the famous La Guardia High School of Art and Music in New York City, and her career path exploded once she was introduced to rapper Lil Wayne. Yet, her personal life was full of a great deal of struggle and personal problems.


Nicki Minaj’s birth name is Onika Tanya Maraj and she was born in Trinidad and Tobago. At the age of 5, she moved to NYC. However, all was not idyllic in the Maraj household. Her father was a drug addict and, in fact, attempted at one point to kill the family. In what can only be called a true success story, Maraj rose to fame. In 2010, she won Best Hip-Hop Female at the BET Awards.


Today, Nicki is more than a music icon, as she is also becoming a trendsetter who is helping chart the course of fashion. Her high-profile presence on American Idol gives her a tremendous platform for showcasing different looks and styles. This platform has been further expanded by appearances in fashion magazines such as Elle. The fashion world hasn’t missed the fact that Nicki is able to employ a wide range of different looks and do so successfully. She is now looked to as a trendsetter and watched carefully by the fashion conscious.


You can be sure that the rising importance of sunglasses in the fashion world hasn’t been lost on the observant Minaj. Minaj is frequently seen wearing sunglasses. Her choices of designer sunglasses include those that use high end sunglasses lenses including polarized lenses. What are Polarized sunglasses? Polarized sunglasses are often used by celebrities who often experience long hours under bright lights. The reason that polarized lenses are so useful for celebrities is that these lenses are able to filter out harsh and bright lights. In this regard, polarized lenses are practically tailor made for celebrities such as Minaj.
