Throughout her career, Nicki Minaj has been known to have a curvaceous body, big bosoms, and big derrière. However, there was a point when she realized she needed to undergo plastic surgery to lessen one major part of her body and it all began during one of the biggest events in fashion.
The rapper, who just released her new album "Pink Friday 2," appeared in the "Life in Looks" special by Vogue Magazine where she recalled some of the most iconic outfits she had worn over the past years.
At one moment, her Met Gala outfit by Burberry appeared and she shared a little backstory about it, saying it was at that time when she realized she needed to get a breast reduction surgery because her boobs were "spilling out."
"I just realized just this moment that actually there was something good that came out of this," she said.

"I said, 'You guys, listen, look these boobs are gonna be spilling out," she said.
