This Is What Nicki Minaj Looked Like Before Fame

Another celebrity has joined the Throwback Thursday club. This time, it was Nicki Minaj with what looks like an old high school senior portrait, and let me tell you, it is glorious. While Nicki has had her body positive moments, she's also obviously finding other ways to encourage others to live up to their aspirations. Captioning the Insta pic, "Chase your dreams," Nicki perfectly posted this throwback pic as an inspiration for all of us. And it seriously proves how anyone can accomplish far more than they ever expected.

But I've got to say, Nicki hasn't really changed at all. With the same gorgeous smile and perfect skin, she's pretty much still rockin' the same confidence she had way back when she took this pic. Baring hardly any makeup at all, it's clear that Nicki is a natural beauty and that her nails have always been on fleek. And that hair? Flawless. I don't think anyone can rock a red long-sleeve, gold earrings, and a corsage better than Nicki can. And for that reason, I think it's safe to say that she was already a boss even in her teen years.

At the end of the day, there's something so special about seeing celebs post their old photographs. Whether it's an embarrassing baby photo or a high school senior photo, it's pretty cool getting to see Hollywood before they became all glitz and glamour.

So thank you Nicki, for inspiring us to follow our dreams while sharing your old memories with us. Always keepin' it one hunnid.
