Nicki Minaj set to launch fashion and housewares collection

Rapper Nicki Minaj will launch her own line of fashions, housewares and accessories this holiday season.  In case you didn’t notice, Nicki Minaj marked her return to Twitter over the weekend tweeting, “I really didn’t plan on leaving barbz! =( just sorta happened…I learned a lot on my little sabbatical tho… so enlightening, so peaceful.” Her absence didn’t make headline news like it did when she completely deleted her Twitter account a while back, but she told fans, “I didn’t leave barbz, I was still here in spirit and u guys KNOW that so stop with the dramatics!!! LMAO. And Barbz should expect a lot more than tweets out of Nicki this year as she expanding beyond her popular Pink Friday scent and launching a new line of accessories, housewares and fashions. The planned parternship was revealed to the NY Post and spearheaded by Charles Koppelman, the former EMI, Steve Madden and Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia boss. While working on a similar deal for Adam Levine, Charles plans to launch a Nicki-headed collection with a retail giants like Target, K-Mart or Wal-Mart for the holiday season later this year. Looks like Barbz will soon have their choice of Pink Friday plates, pillows and pants to pick from.  Interesting…]]>
