Nicki Minaj's Leading Men

Drake, Lil Wayne, Nas and more co-starred in music videos.

Nas - In her signature blonde locks and pink lipstick, Nicki poured out her heart to Nas in the video for her hit single “By My Side.” Nas spoiled The Head-Barbz-In-Charge who played his main squeeze in the visuals. He even put a ring on it. But the highlight came when Nas and Nicki shared an intimate tongue–down towards the end of their love story.(Photo: Cash Money Records, Universal Republic)
Chris Brown - Although Nas was certainly the leading man in "Right By My Side," Chris Brown also played a significant role in the video since he was featured on the track.

Michael Jai White - Back in 2010 when Nicki released her second album, Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded her song "Your Love" was a major hit. The Kung Fu-inspired video featured Nicki in full Asian-themed wardrobe and actor Michael Jai White, who fights a masked female warrior and ends up symbolically killing her only to discover it was Nicki all along.(Photo: Cash Money Records, Universal Motown)
Lil Wayne - Nicki got frisky with her boss Lil Wayne in the "High School" music video. Tunechi and Nicki steamed things up with a sexy boudoir scene, which features lots of touching, rubbing, and a few kisses to Weezy’s abs from Nicki. The pair almost shared a lip-lock as well, but opted for an illusion instead.(Photo: Cash Money Records)Drake - As noted earlier Drake has played Nicki’s leading man more than once before. In the visuals for her Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded track "Moment 4 Life," featuring Drake, Drizzy made true on his lyrics on "Miss Me" about marrying Nicki. Drake, dapper in a black suit and bowtie and a pink-haired Nicki had just enough time to watch the fireworks before Nicki's fairy god-mother ended her moment in true Cinderella style.(Photo: Cash Money Records)
