Nicki Minaj is featured on the cover the latest Elle magazine, but the photos aren't exactly glamorous. The YMCMB rapper went for a "makeunder" type look for the photo shoot.

"When I saw myself with barely any makeup at, it was such a… like, I'm so, so attached to my pink lipstick, it's hard," Minaj told Elle. "I feel that it's become a part of me. To go in front of the camera, without pink lips or big ol' crazy lashes— you know, nothing— I felt naked. It was scary! So this photo shoot was a real accomplishment in my eyes."
