Nicki Minaj has some NSFW words for 97.1 FM.
The rapper appeared opposite Funk Master Flex on that New York radio station this morning and addressed the beef she has with another station DJ, Peter Rosenberg, that led to her canceling her appearance at the Hot 97 Summer Jam on Sunday.
That last-minute decision stemmed from Rosenberg’s remarks to open the concert two days ago, when he introduced the first act by saying: “I know there are some chicks in here waiting to sing along with Starships later. I’m not talking to y’all now. F–k that bulls–t.”
Encouraged by Lil Wayne, who was on hand to

Sophia Grace Brownlee, a little girl far too young to be singing Nicki Minaj’s “Super Bass,” has done so online. And, inappropriateness aside, she nails the thing.
Right down to Minaj’s accent, the youngster shows off serious talent and looks pretty darn adorable in a princess outfit, backed up with her even littler sister.
While belting out lyrics like “Somebody please tell them who the eff I is.” Nice.
It’s hilarious, disturbing and musically impressive, all at the same time. Taylor Swift and Selena Gomez, you best step off. This “Super Bass” cover tops all:

Kelly Rowland must have been thinking: ‘what Nicki can do I can do better,’ as just days after the Pink Friday star suffered a nip slip on GMA’s Summer Concert Series, the former Destiny’s Child singer followed suit and (accidentally) let both of her breasts hanging out in public.
The “incident” took place at New Jersey’s Club 4Sixty6 on Sunday when Rowland was in the midst of delivering an impressive performance. While singing her single “Motivation,” her upper body dance moves caused her bra top to stretch upwards, exposing her nipular regions in front of everyone.

The singer, performing live on Good Morning America’s Summer Concert Series in New York City’s Central Park, saw her breast spill on out of her top.
Twice.
Reactions came fast and furious to the Nicki Minaj nipple slip, which aired live on the East Coast (lucky!!!!), but was edited out for other time zones.
The Parents Television Council blasted GMA, saying the whole thing could have been prevented with a five-second tape delay. Wishful thinking?
