Just after 11:30 pm, the crowds started to cheer as Minaj made her way through the mobs of fans to the nightclub. Known for making a statement wherever she goes, the American Idol judge was a pure stunner when she entered the Las Vegas hot spot dressed head-to-toe in gold.

The risk-taking fashion forward artist turned heads while wearing a tight gold dress, gold sparkly platforms, gold accessories and a blonde wig as she flaunted her petite frame down the red carpet.

While on the red carpet, Minaj stated that her New Year’s resolution was “I’m not buying anymore shoes” and that in 2013 she looks forward mostly to “My clothing line and working on my third album.”

She also talked about why she came to Sin City to celebrate by saying “Vegas is symbolic of New Year’s Eve … its just an exciting place to be for New Year’s Eve.”

When asked what it was like to shoot American Idol, she replied with “Lots of fun.”

She also discussed plans for her new singles from the album The Re-Up, “I think I’m actually going to shoot a new video for one of the songs on The Re-Up in a couple weeks, so I’m really excited. It might be “I’m Legit” or “High School” but I’m not sure yet.”
