On Nicki Minaj's latest album, Pink Friday 2: Roman Reloaded the bewigged rapstress shouts out Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour: When I'm sitting with Anna, I'm really sitting with Anna / Ain't a metaphor punchline, I'm really sitting with Anna / Front row at Oscar de la Renta, posture / Ain't a b*tch that could do it, not even my imposter And even more recently, fashion fanatic Kanye West boasted about his fashion exploits on his new track "Theraflu", from dinner with Anna Wintour to racing go karts with Anja Rubik:

Minaj even cribbed Kim's Hardcore LP cover in one of the images she used on her Sucka Free mixtape. For the most part, Minaj has kept quiet in response to Kim's repeated baiting of her in the press, but recently she reached her limit.
