She closed her eyes and imagined a world that genuinely loved her back.
Welcome to Gag City.
ALT Illustrated storybook style artwork showing Nicki Minaj standing as a towering figure in the center of a futuristic pink and purple Gag City. She wears a deep pink gown with a high slit, gold jewelry, and a sleek black bob while holding a microphone with her eyes closed in a peaceful, reflective pose. Surrounding her are glittering fantasy skyscrapers, crystal towers, onion domed buildings, elevated walkways, flying vehicles, and a pastel monorail weaving through the city. Multiple structures display the words “GAG” and “GAG CITY” in sparkling lettering. The scene is rendered in soft watercolor tones of pink, lavender, blue, and gold, resembling a page from an illustrated fantasy journal. A gold and black “@GAGCITYMUSEUM” watermark appears in the lower left corner.
