Singer Nicki Minaj's days are long filled with studio time, fragrance creation, as well as filming TV and movie spots, and the rapper admits building her "queendom" can be overwhelming at times.

"I don't even know how I make my schedule work it really is just mind over matter.
Like, you've really gotta will yourself to do it, because sometimes I feel so overwhelmed, like I'm not gonna get this done," Minaj told Access Hollywood.

"I just have a desire to be that kind of woman that I look up to when I was young.
That kind of woman like the Oprahs and the Madonnas," she said.

"Those are the women that I look at and I'm like, 'If you can do what you do, I can do this,' because what I'm doing is such a small fraction of what their days must be like", she added.
