Nicki Minaj Goes Full-On Barbie For Lil Wayne's Album Release Party

The stars came out in full force to celebrate Lil Wayne's Tha Carter VI album release party at Boulevard3 in Los Angeles Sunday night.

Dropped at midnight, just hours after the 2011 MTV Video Music Awards ended, Lil Wayne finally got to celebrate his much-delayed record with a huge soiree full of his friends, collaborators and biggest supporters.

Tons of pals like Drake, Keri Hilson, Ciara, Jessie J and Flo Rida showed up, but it was definitely Nicki Minaj who stole the show.

The "Super Bass" singer thanked Lil Wayne during her Best Hip Hop Video award acceptance speech, calling him "the best rapper alive," so it was no surprise that she came out for his party in full force. She traded her Harajuku-like MTV outfit for a more demure (for her) neon pink skintight dress, cartoon leggings, and wristfuls of bold chunky bangles.

It wouldn't be a party if Nicki didn't show up and take over with an eye-catching (and head-scratching) garb. See what the rest of the stars looked like in the video below.

Seth Rogen was at Lil Wayne's party too! Bizarre, right? So were Rob Kardashian and Jersey Shore kids Ronnie Magro-Ortiz, Sammi Giancola and Deena Cortese.

We had no idea Seth was such a Weezy fan, but Ronnie couldn't stop fist pumping during Lil Wayne's VMA closing performance, so we totally get why Ronnie was there. Plus he must've been insanely excited! Oh, the perks of being a Jersey Shore star.
