With her debut album Pink Friday hitting stores next Monday, a blonde-haired Nicki Minaj paid a visit to “The Wendy Williams Show” to talk to the gossip queen and perform her hit “Right Thru Me.” With pink-frosted tips, a body-hugging latex outfit, and black-and-pink stockings, the Harajuku Barbie held it down with two backup dancers and singers before taking a seat to chat with the talk show hostess about her love life.

“No, I’m not in love, Wendy. I’m in love with my music. I’m in love with Pink Friday. I’m married to Benjamin Franklin. That’s all I care about!” said Nicki in her British accent. “That’s what I tell my Barbz and my Ken Barbz. Don’t chase these boys and all that stuff. Go to school, go to college, don’t depend on anybody, don’t keep having babies. Do your thing.”
