To say Nicki Minaj loves playing dress up is an understatement; the rapper admits she gets a "high" from changing her look. Her eccentric style keeps her fans wondering what she's going to turn up in next, which is typically bold, playful and sometimes just plain out there.

"I get tired of things quickly," Minaj tells People in the magazine's Oct. 8 issue. "I love change when it comes to my look … I need a new fix. It's like a high to me — every time I change my hair, it's a high."

Still, Minaj, who just released her first fragrance, Pink Friday, last month, claims that while she's addicted to changing her hair color, style and wardrobe picks, she doesn't enjoy the time it takes to get styled. She prefers being busy and productive instead of succumbing to the process for an hour and a half, but the end result is worth it to her.

"[I love] when I go from zero to 10 and everybody sees 10 — even my stylists never know what I'm wearing," she shares. "I'll say, 'Bring me a whole bunch of clothes,' and I'll go in and put stuff together… I don't love sitting there and getting makeup done. But afterwards it’s like, 'Yay, we created a new doll today.'"
