Nicki Minaj nude calendar: Rapper showcases her famous assets for 2015

Nicki Minaj has given fans an early Christmas present that will guarantee a very happy new year.

The bootylicious Young Money rapper has stripped down to her birthday suit for her soon-to-be-released 2015 calendar.

The wall candy, which gives Kim Kardashian's #breaktheinternet stunt a run for its money, shows the Minaj showing off her assets in an array of seductive poses.

All the scantily clad behaviour is to promote her new album, The Pinkprint, and the calendar, which is available on Minaj's web store, is already selling like hot cakes.

"You can only get the LARGE calendars in my web store with the album," Minaj said on Instagram. "The Best Buy deluxe edition calendars are sold out online but you can get them in stores on Monday."

January kicks off with Minaj soaking in a tub of milk, while she uses a pole and the American flag to wish the US happy birthday in July. Fast forward to August and she marks the first-year anniversary of Anaconda's release with that iconic cover image.

She celebrates Thanksgiving in nothing but a with a Native American headpiece and ends the year warming her famous curves beside an open fire.

The Pinkprint LP as well as a range of Minaj paraphernalia including sweatshirts, T-shirts and large posters are all available now.
