Nicki Minaj reigns victorious. 

According to TMZ, the "Anaconda" rapper dodged a $30 million lawsuit filed by her former hairstylist, who claims Minaj cut him out of a business deal. 

Terrence Davidson had his suit shot down after claims that he helped Minaj design her multi-colored wigs and agreed to go into business with her on a new line of iconic hairpieces.  

However, the judge sided with the YMCMB rapper saying anyone has the right to make wigs. The judge dropped another bomb saying there's nothing special about colored wigs. 

The final nail in the coffin was when the judge said any so-called deal Davidson made with Minaj was vague and nothing more than barber shop talk. 

News of the lawsuit first broke in February.    

"Nicki Minaj is reaping great success and financial bounty reward for Terrence's creative expertise, and he is entitled to participate in that," Davidson's attorney Christopher Chestnut told CNN. "Someone's got to stand up for the artist. We applaud the fact that she's making millions, but she's also got to pay bounty to those whose creative designs she's making millions off of." 

Davidson and his lawyer claim Minaj stole his wig designs and began selling duplicates online.  

Minaj issued a response to Davidson's claim back in May. In her response, she said Davidson is upset "because he lost his most famous client." She also shut down his claims that she prevented him from becoming a reality TV star. 

As she put it in the docs, "his self-described talents are insufficient to garner the same types of business opportunities he may have received when serving as Mrs. Maraj's hairstylist."
