(Cover) - EN Showbiz - Nicki Minaj thinks people who don't pressurise themselves usually "under-achieve".

The singer is happy to admit she expects a lot of herself. She sees no problem with that as she thinks it's probably why she has become a household name all over the world.

"Yes, I think that's probably the reason why I've been able to win. People who don't put themselves under pressure are usually under-achievers," she explained when asked if she likes to challenge herself.

Although some stars moan about life in the limelight, Nicki has no problem with it at all. She thinks people who dislike some aspects of fame should cast their minds back to what things were like before they made it.

"I've come to realise that there are no negative sides. Some people see paparazzi as negative and some see it as something they've always wanted," she told Look magazine. "These are things that I've always wanted. If I didn't have it, I'd want it." (C) Cover Media
