<p>One thing about the Barbz, they&#8217;re going to apply that PRESSURE behind <strong>Nicki Minaj</strong>! And that&#8217;s really the case ahead of the highly-anticipated &#8216;Pink Friday 2.&#8217; With days away from its release, Nicki put her fans on alert about landing in Gag City this Friday.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;As we begin to prepare for landing, please make sure your tray tables are put back up &; your seat belts are tightly fastened. The captain has activated the “no bathroom” sign. If you look out the window, you’ll begin to see the beauty…clear waters, pink dolphins…#GagCity #PF2&#8221;</p></blockquote>

<p>Not that the Barbz need a reminder because they&#8217;ve been sweating the calendar and showering Queen Barb with love online since she announced the release date. IKTR!</p>

<h3 style="text-align: center;"><strong>Barbz Share Their Take On What Nicki Minaj&#8217;s Gag City Looks Like</strong></h3>
<p>The Barbz cooked up some visuals with hints from the countdown post and some of Nicki&#8217;s recent projects, like her and Ice Spice&#8217;s &#8216;Barbie World.&#8217; Under Nicki&#8217;s X post, her fans engaged with the creative efforts. Some gave more of a kikikiki, while others kinda-sorta make sense.</p>

<p>One of the top replies to Nick&#8217;s post came from fan account @DuhhMinaj. It gained over 400 shares and showed dolphins flying in the sky with two planes. Our POV? A crystal city lit in pink and blue hues and surrounded by pink waters. The account wrote,<em> &#8220;The view is beautiful.&#8221; </em></p>

<p>The pink-on-pink visual had Nicki&#8217;s fans gagging in the comments. One user, @ThatSoShelli replied, <em>&#8220;landing on oncoming traffic is hxhdhsjaka,&#8221;</em> and the account playfully responded, <em>&#8220;gotta make it in time for the album drop.&#8221; </em></p>

<p>Some even went the extra mile and gave us a POV from inside Gag City.
