Queen Nicki Minaj Speaks On Anxiety & Feeling More Confident Earlier On In Her Career.
Pink Queen Minaj opens up about feeling as if “it’s not natural” for people to “always feel like everyone’s critiquing them.”
“I think when you are a woman and you’re in the public eye all the time, if you’re not careful you can become less confident because you’re being constantly scrutinized,” said the Rap icon. “I just don’t think it’s natural. It’s not natural for a human being to just always feel like everyone’s critiquing them.”
“When I first came into the industry, I had this amazing sense of freedom because nobody gave a sh*t about what I was doing,” Minaj continued. “And then it goes from that to the complete, complete opposite. Where it’s like, if I blink my eye wrong, they’ll have a story made up about why I blinked my eye that way.”
Minaj also added that in order to maintain peace, she doesn’t check on social media or she removes apps from her phone, altogether. Of course, the superstar emcee is also basking in the glow of motherhood and boasted about how spending time with her son also grounds her in a career of chaos.
