Hip-Hop Watch High School Nicki Minaj Throw A Phone At A Classmate’s Head Even back then, Nicki wasn’t afraid to push the envelope. by Diane Cho 12/29/2014 Embedded from www.youtube.com. </noscript> </div> “Angry Phone Girl” or Nicki Minaj got her acting start early in the classrooms of New York City’s famous Fiorello H. LaGuardia High School. Way before pumping iron in her “Anaconda” video or releasing her emotional The Pinkprint short film, Minaj was a normal high school student looking for a way into the industry. This clip of a young Onika Tanya Maraj shows that even back then, she wasn’t afraid to push the envelope. So what if she got a little too into in a heated fight scene with a classmate and threw a phone at her head? That was a sign of a STAR in the making. This proud diva knew from the start that her high school acting days would help take her to the top. Diane Cho
