Nicki Minaj – I Never Had Surgery On My Face…

She’s been accused of having had a nose job, among other surgeries. But Nicki Minaj has shot back at critics, crediting makeup for her contoured appearance.

The 30-year-old singer denied ever having a scalpel touch her face during an interview Thursday on Extra, but she made no mention about her purported ‘booty’ implants. ‘I never had surgery on my face,’ said the American Idol judge. ‘When people see my makeup they think all types of crazy things that I’m doing to my skin, but it’s makeup.’

While chatting about her latest lipstick collaboration with MAC, the Pink Friday singer said she’s toned down her look this year. ‘It’s a bit more grown and sexy and like… less is more,’ said Nicki. When asked if she’s ever had a ‘non-glam’ day, the Trinidadian-born singer answered ‘of course,’ stating that she looks like ‘hell’ on those days.

‘You don’t want to see it, a scarf on my head, sweatpants, UGGS, T-shirt,’

Nicki was also asked whether she believed she would win a sing-off with her fellow American Idol judge Mariah Carey. The star declared that she would come out on top – but not due to her vocal chops. ‘Oh, I wouldn’t sing,’ she said. ‘I would just stand there and flash my boobs.’

Second the best: The singer’s first lipstick for the brand was what she has described as a ‘classic pink,’ but she says her newest shade is more grown-up.
