Nicki Minaj was one of the major artists who got snubbed by the Grammy committee recently. Despite the fact that she released her successful sophomore album, Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded, as well as a string of hit singles, including "Starships," last year, the Young Moneyrapper will not be winning any Grammy Awards this year.

"I think the Grammys had a different reason, that I do not want to discuss…and that's just between me and them," she told the AP recently. "But I respect their organization and I'll get a Grammy eventually. I'm not worried about it."
So, what was the reason? Was it because they didn't enjoy Roman Reloaded? Was it because Nicki spent more time on the set of American Idol than she did in the studio? Was it because they're still mad at Nicki for performing a fake exorcism on the Grammy stage last year?

There are human beings who are inspired by me, who I love dearly. And that's what my career is based on."
