In addition to educating other pop stars (and the public) on issues of race, sexism and media bias, Minaj cares a lot about projecting a positive image for her fans, many of whom are young women. She scatters important messages for women throughout her public appearances, whether on stage, in interviews or during her stint as a judge for American Idol. One of her biggest talking points is the importance of education and she has been known to implore her audiences to stay in school and focus on that before anything else. She is also keen to emphasise the value of female friendship and is quick to promote or celebrate other women's achievements. Critics who question her influence on young girls because she sings about sex and wears tight clothes overlook the fact that she is actually modelling an excellent attitude for young women: build your own career and enjoy yourself doing it.
Brydie is an Australian writer and performer living in London and she complains exactly the same amount about the weather as every other Australian living in London. Yes, that is her natural lip colour, no, she will not be taking any further questions at this time.
