NICKI MINAJ & WILL.I.AM. PERFORM "CHECK IT OUT" ON DAVID LETTERMAN

Slightly better than her disasterous VMA performance, but she still has a long way to go before she can have the stage presence of say a Lil Kim or Missy Elliott. I feel she always brings it with the fashion, which I thought when you put on your war makeup or wear a wacky costume, it's supposed to bring you out of your shell. Well that's what I hear from my drag queen friends. Nicky seems to pride herself on being fashionably cute, but when it's time to step out of the studio and perform, it always turns out to be lackluster.
