"I am going on auditions, and I'm trying to find the right role with the right director and the right writers.
"I want to be part of something from the beginning stage this time, and I want the role to be custom-made for me."
"The thing is I have such a versatile personality. Some days I feel like I wanna do a Will Ferrell comedy; some days I feel like I wanna do more like a Set It Off-type of movie with some other young black actresses and like creating a movement with that.
"And sometimes I think, maybe I could do X-Men or something."
Do you think Onika can pull off X-Men and snatch the Storm role? or a comedy?
possibly a role in the new Justice League?
No. After all the acclaim she's been getting these days and going back to a "natural" look and feel, I think starring in X-Men could backfire and she'd be criticized for "taking on a crazy role" or a "comic book role" because, let's be real, Nicki looked like a cartoon for the first three to four years of her mainstream career.

Her natural look is a facet of her music career. Her acting career is completely separate from that.
