Nicki Minaj Celebrates Her Birthday in Turks and Caicos

Nicki Minaj celebrated her 34th birthday yesterday (Dec. 8) in Turks and Caicos. As a result, the Queens rapper posted a special birthday photo to Instagram.

You can view the photo above. The Pinkprint artist looks pretty comfortable chillin’ on a beach chair in her red swimsuit. Nicki captioned the picture, “Lord, I thank you for another year of life. #TurksAndCaicos Birthday vibes. Thanks for the ?u guys. Right back atcha?.”

In music-related news, Minaj just dropped a snippet of a new collaboration with Fetty called “Like a Star.” Fetty comes in first with his trademark warbling flow on the chorus. All of a sudden the instrumental shifts, and Nicki enters, spitting, “Throw the confetti/I’m wild petty/Tell ya homes go and drain my spaghetti/And don’t gas ’em without Getty/Kitty on jet ski/Panties and a wet tee/Give ’em that water ride.”

Nicki also recently dropped a new mobile game called Nicki Minaj: The Empire. Along with the video game, she also dropped a new track called “Ain’t Gone Do It.” 

Minaj also had plans for an ABC show, but in mid-October she called in to The Breakfast Club and said she had to postpone it. “It’s postponed because a lot of things were happening in the same time,” she says. “Creatively we wanted to make some changes with the pilot. We’re taking our time. Everyone involved wants it to be perfect … There were other things that needed to be figure out first.”
