Subtle style? Nicki Minaj appeared to be dressed in an understated style as she arrived at the Christie's Green Auction but the view from the back hit a bum note


We are used to seeing her step out in figure hugging leotards, colour-clashing corsets and mismatching ensembles so when Nicki Minaj arrived at an event in New York last night it appeared she had opted to play it safe with a plain all-black black outfit.

But upon closer inspection it became clear she was dressed in one of her more bizarre and highly-unflattering ensembles to date.

The 26-year-old rapper arrived at the Green Auction event held at the Rockefeller Centre in New York last night in a tight black leather cat suit with black leggings and heeled boots.


Nicki’s appearance from the front was quite understated for the American singing star – despite the blonde and green wig and bright pink lips – and the leotard showed off her tiny waist and her enviable cleavage to perfection.

But while the view from the front was aesthetically pleasing from the back it was a very different style story and the high legged leotard did nothing to flatter her plentiful derriere.

In fact it was apparent the leotard was extremely ill fitting around her bottom and her back.

But badly fitting clothing didn’t stop Nicki from taking to the stage to perform at the Christie’s Green Auction: Bid to Save The Earth event in New York.

The singer is no stranger to flaunting her fabulous curves in tight outfits and the night before she treated L’il Wayne and his fans to a lap dance as part of the rapper’s I Am Music tour at Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum.

Nicki was dressed in a white and pink futuristic lycra catsuit as she performed on stage before gyrating on top of a lucky man was sat in a chair and appeared to be enjoying the view.

Minaj, who is no stranger to stealing the spotlight is the latest star to be considered as an X Factor judge.

According to reports she has recently been in secret talks with Cowell.

Minaj met with the mega mogul recently in Los Angeles, where they discussed the possibility of the singer joining the panel.

'Simon thinks Nicki is fantastic. She's sassy, she looks great and she has bags of personality,' a source told the New York Post.

'Nicki has a large following and she fits well with the ethos of the show, which plans to usher in a new generation of musical talent.

'This isn't a done deal yet, but Nicki would be great for the show. She fits the ideal that 'X Factor' will be exciting, vibrant and different. And the show would also be great for her career."

Reps for Cowell have said the rumours are 'early speculation' while Minaj's have made no comment.
