Nicki Minaj's former hairstylist has sued her for stealing his wig designs and selling it.

Terrence Davidson, who made wigs for the 'Starships' singer, has claimed that her representatives had discussed launching a reality TV show or creating a new wig line with him, but later he was ignored, Sky News reported.

In the lawsuit, he has accused Minaj of cheating and harming his business by selling branded wigs for massive profits on her website, without including him.

He has also claimed that his "fresh, hip, and unique wigs" were a large part of the physical transformation that helped catapult her to superstardom.

The 'Super Bass' singer has joined the judging panel on American Idol.
