Nicki scrubbed it off instead of piling it on for the April issue of ELLE Magazine and I likes what I sees. When asked what Nicki thought of her makeunder she said, “When I saw myself with barely any makeup at, it was such a… like, I’m so, so attached to my pink lipstick, it’s hard. I feel that it’s become a part of me. To go in front of the camera, without pink lips or big ol’ crazy lashes— you know, nothing— I felt naked. It was scary! So this photo shoot was a real accomplishment in my eyes.” Girl, you still have hair, lashes and contacts, what more do you REALLY need?!

It’s a shame she can be so ghetto. Great photo!
