Quote of the Day: Nicki Minaj on Men, Dating, and Sex
Nicki Minaj tells you once and for all about her dating life.

"If you ask anyone who knew me five years ago, they'll tell you that I've always been reserved about men. I write about sex because sex is natural, but being promiscuous to me has never been cool, and I don't ever pretend around my male peers that [it is] cool. Since I've come into this game, I've gotten nothing but respect from every man I've worked with, and I pride myself on that. If I were to have sex with someone in the industry, you would have to know that I made the first move. My reputation, in that way, precedes me, and I love that.
