Everything Nicki Does In TOW
thanks for the tea Aatthew 
Forget Cameron Diaz, Leslie Mann, and Kate Upton, this is biggest reason you should be excited to see The Other Woman this weekend: Nicki Minaj makes her acting debut. In the revenge comedy, Minaj plays Lydia, an "opinionated and sharp and brutally honest" assistant to Diaz's lawyer character, Carly. And, while we won't give away what happens in the film, we will say that Minaj's first foray into Hollywood is everything a fan of hers could hope for and more.

Moments later, Lydia walks into Carly's office asking what's wrong. Carly explains that Mark is married. Her response? "And you don't think you can take her?" Carly doesn't want to homewreck, but Lydia thinks married men would be perfect for her because it's like they have a hobby to keep them busy sometimes. When her boss isn't receptive, Lydia dishes quality advice:

Her scenes grow more infrequent from here. The next time we see Lydia, she pokes her head into Carly's office as she's planning her revenge against Mark with the help of his wife Kate (Mann), and his other mistress Amber (Upton).
