Nicki Minaj isn't just one of the rap game's baddest emcees — she also just happens to be a complete style chameleon.

Over the years, we've watched as the Pink Friday rapper swerved her way through different genres, taking on bouncy club jams and hard-hitting hip-hop with ease. Accordingly, her fashion sense has followed suit, resulting in some pretty out there looks. From a rainbow assortment of wigs to animal print overload to, well, whatever it is she wore on the red carpet of the MTV Video Music Awards in 2011 (we're still trying to sort that one out ourselves!), one thing's for sure: You can't pin down the Harajuku Barbie. (That is, unless you're pinning one of her unique, lavish couture outfits onto her body.)

And so, in praise of Nicki Minaj's colorful, extravagant fashion sense (which just so happens to match her multifaceted personality), we've put together some of the most boldest, most eye-popping looks she's flaunted on stage, on the red carpet and beyond.
