Nicki Minaj has flaunted sensual outfits with confidence several times, but she says she has felt "shy" about them sometimes.
The 31-year-old, who recently donned an all-black ensemble at the 2014 American Music Awards, opened up about it in an interview, reports eonline.com.
"Yes and people don't know that. I feel shy a lot of times actually. I just push myself to go for it," she said.
Talking about her forthcoming album "The Pinkprint", which is set to release Dec 15, Minaj said: "I'm so excited. I'm so proud of it. It really shows a lot of growth. I know that my fans are really going to appreciate the subject matter on a lot of the songs".
