Reports TMZ:

We spoke with a rep for BET who wouldn’t specify exactly why the network has banned the video — simply saying BET will not be broadcasting it.

But sources at the company tell us, the ban was put in place because the video’s just too explicit for TV.

The song lyrics alone are bad enough — repeating the phrase “stupid h*e” dozens of times — but the video itself is damn raunchy too, showing several nearly naked female figures. Normally this is where we’d post the video … but in this case, just Google it.

It’s pretty great — especially if you like Nicki’s butt in a thong.

And now…press play to see why they banned it.

Reports Rolling Stone:

According to her manager Cortez Bryant’s recent interview with The New York Times, the singer’s designer dreams are already nearing fruition.

Minaj hopes to “negotiate a deal with a fashion house, so [she] can sell her own line of clothes,” said Bryant, calling it a major priority for the performer. In a stragetic shift within the singer’s managerial setup: last year, Bryant was brought on board, along with other key industry players, to help position Minaj prominently within the style sphere. A spate of front-row Fashion Week appearances, key fashion covers, and her H&M and Versace performance and televised Victoria’s Secret gig suggests 2011′s publicity blitz worked its magic. In 2012, she raises the stakes and will be taking over for Lady Gaga as MAC’s Viva Glam Ambassador.

Reports Karen Civil:

Nicki Minaj is bringing in 2012 with a new title, the ‘most followed rapper on Twitter.’

As of January 4, 2012 Nicki had 8,162,527 followers allowing her to beat out Eminem who previously held the position. Em currently has 8,149,123 stans on the social network.

Reports Necole Bitchie:

A proud Scaff Beezy tweeted photos of his new Matte Red car earlier this month with the caption:

‘S/O to my New Bent…Matte Red Only 1 In USA! Continental GT…”Even tho I hate it dey force me to 2get da new bent’.

$200-250g is a hefty amount of change to spend on a whip. And although it could be assumed that Nicki laced her boo with the ride since she could be considered the breadwinner in the relationship, Safari makes it clear that he has his own dough. He wrote on his facebook:

I got ova 600k in insured jewels. …I think I can afford to buy a Bentley I shoulda bought a Civic. LOL all good.

I see said the blind man. And now…

Says Mattel:

“Barbie is obviously a pop culture icon. She’s been in the spotlight for over 50 years, and strikes that chord with girls of all ages in terms of being representative of the times. And Nicki is a big part of pop culture and also huge within the fashion industry, as well as a big Barbie fan,” says Stefani Yocky, a Barbie spokeswoman. “It’s really exciting for us that she’s been so generous to allow us to create this one-of-a-kind doll to support such an important cause.”

Reports This is 50:

The war of words was sparked when one of Cher’s followers messaged her asking if she had heard a song by Nicki that was dissing her. “@cher did you know that b*tch @NICKIMINAJ dissed you in her song DIDITONEM,” asked the fan.

The lyrics in question are from Minaj’s song “Did It On ‘Em” in which she raps, “If you could turn back time–Cher/You used to be here but now you gone–Nair.” The song wasn’t a Cher diss and it’s highly likely Cher has never listened to it, but she replied back to the fan by writing, “Ive seen lots of people come & go! No biggie!”

That was all Team Minaj needed to see before they launched an attack on the singer. Nicki’s friend/hype man Scaff Beezy responded quickly. “Yo @cher listen to the words b4 you say dumb sh*t on twitter,” he wrote. “Do you know what a rap metaphore is??? TM is a cult you dont want it with!!”

One she realized she wasn’t being dissed in the song Cher apologized. “U R right ! Someone said I was dissed..I’ve been dissed b4,but instead of finding out I just got defensive ! I should know better.”

The argument should have ended there, but it didn’t as people continued to insult Cher who finally got fed up. “Gimme a fkn break! Said I was dumb!” she wrote before deleting her tweets. Nicki got wind of what was going on and messaged Cher, writing “@Cher #stopit5.”

Meanwhile, Scaff Beezy continued to rant. See below.

Reports Freddy O:

Lil’ Wayne is known for keeping it real and he did just that in a recent interview with Vibe magazine. He told the popular mag, “I’m not satisfied with anything she’s done”. The statement really surprised me because Nicki has already accomplished so much and the short span that she has been out. Look inside for more details on what else he said about the femcee.

“I believe she can do a whole lot more, and I believe she will do a whole lot more,” explained Weezy. “It’s not shocking, and it’s not surprising. It’s quite fitting. But other than that, it’s nowhere near the end.”
