Rap-Up.com || Nicki Minaj Takes Over High School as Principal for the Day

Being sent to the principal’s office is normally not a good thing—except if Nicki Minaj is your principal. The “Super Bass” rapper surprised over 400 students by taking over Collins Academy High School in Chicago as “Principal for the Day.” Her visit was one of many rewards for the students and teachers who won the Get MotivatED Challenge to improve daily attendance rates.

The LaGuardia High School graduate, beaming in a patterned yellow jumpsuit and short blonde wig, presented three students with $10,000 college scholarships, helped teach a freshman English class, and joined MTV’s Sway Calloway for an assembly to honor the students’ and teachers’ accomplishments.

“I am a young, female mogul before I am an artist. As a business woman there isn’t a single day where I don’t use my education or acquire new knowledge to ensure my success,” Nicki told the students. “Regardless of where you are today, with education you can take yourself where you want to be. That’s why I am working with the Get Schooled Foundation. They are finding innovative and exciting ways to bring that message to schools like the Collins Academy.”

PLEASE!!!! That was NOT Nicki’s money she was presenting, she only PRESENTED the money, so Stans calm down!! That was MTV’s money. She looks like 45 years old in those pics, and that school is an Alternative School, not a regular school. 400 students. So she’s doing nothing BIG!!!

I have been following these vdieos for a while now as well & I have to agree with you. Hip-Hop has always been a competitive genre whether if its good natured beefing or if it gets serious. You would think Lil Kim would have learned going through the B.I.G vs Pac saga & both of them resulting in death & then her doing a year in prison from her own beef with Foxy. What this has shown me is 2 things. That Lil Kim cannot handle beef if she is considered the weaker of the 2 & she is a poor student in the lessons of life. She has refused to learn from her past. And to add insult to injury is that when BIG & Pac was beefing BIG was quiet & calm one. He shot subliminals at Pac but he kept it civil. Pac was the loud mouth threating to kill him & his crew (including Lil Kim). Kim is acting like Pac & nicki is acting Like BIG. So either BIG was a bad mentor, orshe was a poor student
