When it comes to her music, the Queen of Rap Nicki Minaj is used to being in the driver’s seat. But on Wednesday, James Corden took the wheel as he was joined by the rapper for “Carpool Karaoke” on 'The Late Late Show'
Minaj explained that she had “an amazing sense of freedom” when she first started because “nobody gave a fuck” about what she was doing. “It goes from that to the complete, complete opposite where if I blink my eye wrong, they’ll have a story made up about why I blinked my eye that way,” she said.
The Karaoke segment with Corden marks one of the first times in a long time that the rap star — who has rarely given interviews since giving birth to her son in late 2020 — has shared a more vulnerable side of herself on camera. “We talked for a long time about anxiety and how difficult it can be being Nicki Minaj,” Corden told reporters at a virtual press conference on Wednesday.
“Whenever I am off of social media and I take that shit off my phone, I have this enormous sense of peace. And then you realize what really matters… You’re like, ‘Who cares?’ ” Minaj said, later adding that having her son played a big role in that. “When I look at my son, I’m like just magically in love. He just makes me laugh, makes me smile, makes me happy. Like, he’s just so cute and cuddly.
