Nicki Minaj showed the world what The Pinkprint is going to look like with a striking performance of “Bed of Lies” at the American Music Awards. The artist, known for her theatrics, kept the high dudgeon to a minimum, standing by a piano as Skylar Grey played.
It was a performance whose dominance came from just how willing Minaj was to let the song be the star. Watch up top.
