Nicki Minaj appears in the buff for her new music video... with the aid of a flesh-coloured outfit

It's not surprising that she is showing some skin in her new music video.

But at first glance it appears that Nicki Minaj had gone naked in her new clip for Va Va Voom. 

The R&B artist is seen next to naked, and almost seems to be exposing a breast while dancing with a partner in the YouTube video sensation, which was released on Friday.

Next to naked: Nicki Minaj is Va Va Voom in her new music video in which she wears a flesh-coloured bra and bikini shorts

Nicki appears to be missing part of her outfit in the opening scene of the video.

She is wearing part of a white glittering dress on the right side of her body and a flesh-toned bra and bikini bottoms on the left, making it look like she's half naked.

That was surely Nicki's intention.

The fantasy scene opens with two white horses galloping down a magical stream, and then Nicki is seen grooving to the music with a studly man wearing a white cap and feather.

Inspired: Nicki's Va Va Voom music video is an erotic stylised version of the Snow White tale

Nicki is also seen wearing an elaborate headdress in the Snow White-inspired music video, and then with long red locks.

In another scene, the red-haired Nicki is preparing a sumptuous meal when a hunter breaks into the cottage and comes at her with a dagger-like weapon.

Nicki is then seen lying lifeless in a glass casket.

The bold R&B singer, 29, also shows her dark side dressed in a black flowing gown and large black head piece.

Va Va Voom is Nicki's hit single from her upcoming album that is due out November 19.

The entertainer is currently on her Pink Friday: Reloaded tour and her sexy and outrageous costumes live up to her reputation as shocker.

Wearing a skimpy black bustier, Nicki seemed to pop out while vigorously dancing and singing on stage in the UK last week.

Nicki's top shifted and her white flower nipple covers were exposed for all to see.

Although she didn't seem to notice as it happened, later on in the show she addressed the wardrobe mishap with good humour.

She joked: 'You guys have seen my boobs before. You won't tell anyone, will you?'
