Nicki Minaj’s Sizzling 2016 Looks Have Fans Feeling Nostalgic
Fans took a trip down memory lane as Nicki Minaj’s sizzling 2016 throwback photos resurfaced during the viral “2016 challenge.”
Nicki Minaj may have deactivated her Instagram, but fans are making sure her presence never fades. Across fan pages, her most iconic photos continue to circulate, keeping her legacy very much alive. Most recently, a fan account reposted a collection of Nicki Minaj’s 2016 throwback photos as part of the viral “2016 challenge,” where users revisit standout moments from that year. Minaj’s snaps served as a reminder that she has held her queen status for over a decade.
Nicki Minaj ‘Had The Barbz Losing It’ In 2016
The repost featured 20 throwback snaps of Nicki Minaj from 2016, all highlighting Nicki Minaj’s platinum blonde era. The fanpage even referenced the hair in the caption, “Nicki Minaj in that platinum-blonde wig had the barbz losing it.”
The carousel opened with a mirror selfie taken in a dressing room using an iPhone 6s. Minaj wore a pink robe loosely tied over nude-toned briefs, with her cleavage peeking out through the opening. Her hair was parted down the middle and flowed freely down her back.
The next slide showed her in a fringe hairstyle, wearing a cleavage-baring black-and-white crop top paired with a matching midi skirt. She kept the fringe look for a stage appearance in South Africa, performing in a semi-sheer, nude, fringed jumpsuit.

The throwbacks continued with a selfie of the “Chun-Li” rapper in what appeared to be a pink bra, confidently flaunting her full curves.

The fan page earned nearly 4,000 likes for the repost, with nearly 100 comments from nostalgic fans. One fan wrote, “Miss my mother so much. 2016 Nicki was everything to me,” while a second fan added, “What a time to be alive.” Another simply commented, “Her 2016 era,” followed by multiple heart-eye emojis.
Another Iconic Throwback
On January 22, the same fan account shared another throwback of Nicki Minaj. In this photo, she was in a colorful Versace two-piece featuring a plunging long-sleeve top and skin-tight leggings. Her hair was black, pulled into a ponytail with a fringe framing her face.
Notably, Nicki Minaj posted a tweet years ago where she announced she was retiring and urged fans to “keep repping” her until the day she dies. While she never stepped away for too long, her fans clearly took the message to heart, posting throwbacks and whatever new pics they can find.
