Nicki Minaj recently opened up to Vogue about her lengthy career leading up to her highly anticipated Pink Friday 2 album dropping next month.
During the conversation, Nicki spoke about learning to love her body after wishing she had a "bigger butt." Nicki explained, "I just looked at a video that I posted on Instagram when I was 25, and I would fucking pay to look like that right now. But today I can say that I’m at peace with who I am and how I look."
Nicki then spoke about making a conscious effort to prioritize her son's health, stating, "I have to say this as a Black woman, though. I’ve made certain choices for my son, to not give him sweets and candy and juices, because of illnesses like diabetes that run in our community."
In light of the wave of body positivity in the culture, Nicki stated, "I’m not in favor of body positivity if it means unhealthy bodies. That’s bull. It’s not believable, so let’s stop pretending."
Nicki added, "Recently I had to get a breast reduction, and actually I love it. I used to want a bigger butt, and now I look back and realize how silly that was. So—love your curves, and love your non-curves. There’s nothing wrong with any of it."
