It's only the second show of her tour but Nicki already has fans hooked.

Earlier this month Nicki Minaj took off on her new Pink Friday 2 Tour. The series of shows come in support of the album of the same name which she dropped last year. It's already Nicki's highest-selling tour to date and has the chance to land among the biggest tours of 2024 when all is said and done. Even though it's just two shows into its massive run, she's already making nightly news with the performances. After playing her first stop in Oakland last week, the tour hit Denver over the weekend.

For the Denver show, she brought out a look that ride-or-die Barbz will be familiar with. Very early in her career, Nicki was sporting the now iconic black wig with pink extensions. Some of her earliest hits and appearances on other artists' songs saw her donning the instantly recognizable look. That's why so many of her fans were delighted to see her turn back the clock and pull out the look during just the second show on her tour. It immediately invited some comparisons to Taylor Swift's Eras Tour. Swift has re-imagined numerous looks from earlier in her career for various stops on the Eras tour so far. Check out the pictures of Nicki's throwback wig during her Denver show below.
