AceShowbiz - Nicki Minaj was also among those who were accused of impersonating a British accent early in her career. The "Anaconda" raptress, however, admitted that she was indeed faking the accent because she loved it. She even openly discussed how she learned it, crediting Mel B (Melanie Brown) from Spice Girls and Hermione, a "Harry Potter" character played by Emma Watson in its movie series.
"There are so many, but one person was Scary Spice," Nicki, who was born in the Saint James district of Port of Spain and raised in the Queens borough of New York City, explained to The Guardian back in 2012. "I used to listen to her all the time and try to make the same faces she'd make when she was talking. Oh, and Hermione from 'Harry Potter'."
