We all know that Kim Kardashian is the queen when it comes to “breaking the internet” with scandalous photos, selfies and magazine covers. She is the Kween when it comes to being pretty “extra” to gain publicity. And, what’s more iconic than her Paper Magazine cover where she went “bare ass” and showed the entire world her goods? I mean, the title of the article was literally “break the internet,” which, she definitely did.
But, one music diva is coming for Kim’s crown when it comes to breaking the internet with Paper Magazine covers and that woman is Nicki Minaj. The female rapper from Jamaica, Queens has made a name for herself in the industry for being cut-throat and a “take no sh*t” woman in the industry. Her lyrics and her flow have made her one of the top female rappers of her time (and even breaking records of those who spit before her). Now, Nicki is coming for Kim’s “scandal” crown by introducing her own risque magazine cover for Paper Magazine and all I can say is – damn.

Yeah girl, she went there. Ever heard of a “Ménage à trois?” Well, for all of you who don’t know, it’s French for “a household of three” and has been translated many times as a threesome. Nicki decided to go for a magazine cover that used her iconic name “Minaj” and represented three different versions of her own self. Can you say amazing? I seriously can’t get over it. It’s wild. And, she looks incredible in all three “photos.”
Paper Magazine even issued a statement on why they chose Nicki Minaj.

Besides me totally fan-girling at my fellow Queens gal (represent!), Twitter was clearly obsessed with this cover.
“Minaj a trois” paper cover is flames ?
