With “The PinkPrint” set to release on December 9th, Nicki Minaj covers Complex magazine with a sizzling photo spread and cover story. During her interview, she spoke briefly about her playful friendship with Drake and why it works so well.
The chemistry between Nicki and Drake on and off camera is clearly electric, and the playful sexual banter between the two is nothing new. Most recently, we saw this play out during the end of her “Anaconda” video where she gave Drake a lap dance. In the interview, Nicki gives some insight on her friendship with her fellow YMCMB member and what happened during that particular scene.
Read the excerpt from the interview
The video was equally jaw-dropping. You’re twerking and a lot of dudes were probably watching, getting excited—and then you have the banana-chopping scene. Pull them in, entice them, then….
[Laughs.] Absolutely. Abso-freaking-lutely. Then at the end, when Drake is trying to touch me and I’m slapping his hands away…. It was random and impromptu.
Drake—in the friend zone forever.
[Laughs.] Oh, no.
But the last scene with him sitting in the chair, his sad face in his hands….
It’s so cute. He’s such a dope actor. After he did that we just busted out laughing and we all were cracking up. He’s such a good sport. I love that he makes fun of himself and doesn’t take himself too seriously. That’s why my friendship with him works so well. That’s why I love him to death.
[WOR]
