0 53rd Annual Grammy Awards: Nicki Minaj in Givenchy Haute Couture Fall 2007

Nicki Minaj in Givency Haute Couture Fall 2007, 53rd Annual Grammy Awards Red Carpet

You just knew Miss Nicki Minaj was NOT showing up to the 2011 Grammy Awards in SAFE head-to-tow sequined gown...instead, she showed up in an Cheetah animal print "bubble dress", with matching leggings, boots, and "Cotton Candy"-looking hair so big I feel bad for whoever will be seating behind her...they AIN'T going to see a THANG!

From the Runway: Givenchy Haute Couture Fall 2007

The ensemble is from Givenchy Haute Couture Fall 2007 by Designer Riccardo Tisci. Yes, this look is almost four years old--but PLEASE DO NOT call it "Vintage" or I will CUT YOU!!!! I'm sure her stylist went deep--well only four years deep--into the Givenchy Haute Couture Archives--or Style.com Photo Look Boot Site and realized that Cheetah print was SCREAMING "Nicki! Order Me!!!" Also, I'm sure no one ordered it back in the day...so it just sat there lonely and looking for someone as Style Loca as Nicki to come rescue her from Archive Oblivion.

Do we like? Or is she an animal we wanna put back in her cage?

And more important, do we wanna grab a bite from her Cotton Candy-looking hair?
