If people
were asked to describe Nicki Minaj in three words, they could be
forgiven for not using the adjectives 'classy', 'demure' and
'sophisticated'.
But
that's exactly what she is in a brand new photoshoot for L'uomo Vogue -
the Italian, men's version of the iconic fashion bible.
The
provocative chart star's latest look was a stark contrast to her normal
appearance of skin-tight trousers and cleavage-enhancing tops.

In
one image she can be seen wearing a fringed, black dress with fishnet
stockings and lace-up boots with a sharp bowl haircut.
In another she poses in a crisp, white shirt with a man's tie unraveling across her chest.
For the cover itself she reverts to a more classic, buttoned-up approach while smoking a cigarette.

was reported that Nicki gained her first number one single in the U.K
with the song, making it her most successful appearance on a single to
date.
In England, she was never been able to garner the top spot on the charts and was consistently stuck in second place until now.
