Nicki Minaj says that she doesn't have any time to play games with anyone in Hollywood, often comparing it to her days as a youth in Queens.
She tells the June issue of Teen Vogue in which she covers,
“People treat this business like it’s high school. It can absolutely feel like one big popularity contest, and you know what? I can’t be bothered."
She continues, “I can’t allow myself to play ridiculous games with grown adults in the industry. I can’t be nice to someone just because they’re hot right now. I can’t do it.”
She says that she will not buy into the negative comments from people who criticize her.
“I used to read the bad things people said about me. Then I asked myself, Why am I reading that when I have millions of people saying great things?” says Minaj. ”You cannot give negativity power.”
