A Fashion Statement or a Mockery to Religion


     Famous rapper Nicki Minaj lastest topic is her outfit to the 2012 grammy, shown above.  Through using disciplines such as fashion and religion this topic has had great influence upon America.  Most referred to this outfit as different and insightful.  In all honesty we must look closely and ask ourselves, is this making light of some else's religion.  Who are we to say it is ok to contradict an entire religion for one night at an awards show that has many followers.
     The theme of this outfit was creative but the message that this image is supposed to exude is unclear.  Was this a joke?  What was the underlying meaning?  Is this offensive?  This is something all of America must examine and at the same time question Nicki Minaj's purpose as an artist.  Artistry is an expression of self but is this truly a reflection of who Nicki Minaj is and what she stands for!

  1. I love how you imcorporated Kairos in your blog. I would have never thought to put Nicki Minaj in my blog but this was a very controversal outfit.
