Nicki Minaj is making friends all over the place at the 2012 AMAs!

We're pretty accustomed to Nicki Minaj getting in brawls and "American Idol" cat fights with Mariah Carey, but you can imagine how psyched we were to see Barbz making nice all over the place at the 2012 American Music Awards. Not only did Nicki hug it out with Taylor Swift, she was also pictured getting chummy with '80s superstar Cyndi Lauper AND Christina Aguilera (hmmmm, talk about potential type A personality clash).

Earning AMAs for favorite rap/hip-hop artist and album for Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded, it only makes sense that Nicki would be in super friendly mood. Between her awards and performing by herself and with Justin Bieber on "Beauty And A Beat," our Lady Of Perpetual Wigs totally totally owned the show! In addition to posing with fellow winners and performers (Taylor won a best country AMA and performed, Christina performed twice, and Cyndi presented), Nicki looked GORG in a bright yellow gown which, can we just say, perfectly matched her platinum-blonde wig. Nicki may have strong style AND a personality to match, but we can see here that it's working in her favor!
