Nicki Minaj is 32-years-old today. And to kick things off, it was announced today that Nicki's “Saturday Night Live” appearance (hosted by James Franco) boosted the shows' ratings a significant amount. So much so, it became the 2nd highest rated “SNL” episode of the season, following the highly rated Chris Rock/Prince episode. Nice!

The "Anaconda" raptress (known to have fun playing her own made-up characters) participated in a few skits which involved her impersonating the “Flawless” Beyonce in a Hip Hop Nativity scene. She also impersonated Kim Kardashian West for the Weekend Update segment. Nicki’s head was photoshopped on Kim’s nude Paper magazine cover as Nicki tried to explain how the photo was taken out of context.

After her skit appearances, she hit the stage to perform three tracks from her upcoming The Pinkprint album (Dec. 15th),"Bed of Lies", "Only" and her most personal offering yet, "All Things Go".

For her “Bed of Lies” performance with Syklar Grey, the booty-ful raptress slipped into a red crop top and red high-waisted pants by Alexander Wang, which she paired with a fly pair of Giuseppe Zanotti booties.
