FAB FAKE ME OUTS??? Did Nicki Minaj COPY
& PASTE A Designer's Look For Fashion Week?
During Fashion Week, Nicki made Fashion Week headlines
when she was photographed sitting next to Anna Wintour during the Carolina
Herrera Spring 2012 show. She wore a colorful rainbow, shoulder padded dress
completely covered in neon pom-poms. The fashion world went crazy about Nicki's
originality. BUT.. was it a blatant rip off of another designer Nicki was
previously working with?
According to reports, Nicki's colorful pom pom top
was a blatant copy of an up and coming designer, Jessica Rodgers, who has worked
with Teen Vogue, Lady Gaga, Katy Perry and others.
Rodgers says she sent Nicki Minaj's stylists pictures
of her designs so they could possibly collaborate, but they never responded.
After seeing photos of the YMCMB rapstress in (allegedly) her publicized
designs, all she could do was cry because she was so devastated. She
says:
“When I saw the photos, I was in
tears. I’ve worked very hard to make my dream of being a fashion designer come
true. I have built contacts with Teen Vogue, Gaga, Katy Perry, and Marina and
the Diamonds has worn my garments. [Now,] I feel like everything has crumbled
down…I am very upset by the fact that she was sitting next to Anna Wintour. I
admire Anna Wintour very much and I was hoping that one day she would see my
garments and it would be the first time that she would see Puff Balls used as i
use them.”
There's always three sides to every story. And Nicki
has yet to speak on this. So you decide. Who's to blame? Nicki? Her
stylists?

Minaj On Copycat Rumors: That Designer Is LYING! I Don't Even Know
Her!
Nicki Minaj and her styling team are striking back at
rumors that Nicki & her stylists stole one of her colorful Fashion Week
designs from a designer.
Designer Jessica Rodgers accused Nicki Minaj of
jacking a design Jessica showed her, and having her own top made in a very
similar way for NY Fashion Week 2011.
But now, Nicki's styling and image consultant, Joel
Dash, says Jessica is full of fashion
sh*t. And they have, in fact, never even met this Jessica person.
He says, "That whole
story about Nicki Minaj supposedly 'stealing ideas' or her styling team being in
contact with that unknown designer is a complete fabrication. It is false! This
is just a designer who wants attention. We have never been in contact with this
particular designer on behalf of Nicki or any other clients we currently work
with."
Joel revealed that the designer of Nicki's top in
question is actually a Japanese brand.
Nicki's top which is in question was
created by a Japanese brand called DOG, please contact them to verify that we
did not ask them to create this pieces specifically but rather saw it in their
lookbook and we simply requested this look for Nicki," Joel says
Joel went on
to say, "We are not sure who created the piece first, for all we know, she
copied DOG?"
SHADE is I have yet to see anything this
child wear that is ORIGINAL…Miss Nicki STOP IT NOW!
