Nicki Minaj Opens Up About Being Influenced by Whitney Houston | WWHL

Nicki Minaj calls having Cyndi Lauper clear her master recording of Girls Just Want to Have Fun for Nicki’s song, Pink Friday Girls, a full-circle moment. She goes on to remember when everyone was giving her a hard time years ago for doing pop music, says she wanted to acknowledge her love for pop legends like Cyndi, and thinks it’s insane that Cyndi cleared the master recording for her. Plus, Nicki says she doesn’t think people understand how much Whitney Houston influenced her, adding that she knew her first album front to back.
