Ludacris: I Love Nicki Minaj!

Nicki Minaj and a pal shop the evening away while out together on Friday (February 10) in Beverly Hills, Calif.

After shopping, the 29-year-old entertainer hopped in her car, but gave a quick pose for a photographer before zipping away.

Rapper Ludacris recently gave Nicki some nice compliments!

“I’m looking forward to seeing Nicki Minaj. I love her,” he said to MTV News about the 2012 Grammy Awards. “I’m glad I got a chance to work with her. I’m extremely proud of her. She’s just scratching the surface of what she’s capable of. So Nicki: keep doing your thing, girl.”
