Nicki Minaj is currently compiling her fantasy list of people in Hollywood with whom she’d like to work. Speaking with Entertainment Weekly, the Harajuku Barbie explained that with her background in acting, she’d love to appear on the silver screen alongside Will Smith and with Tim Burton in the director’s chair.

“I want to work with Will Smith, because he’s a very successful rapper turned actor and therefore a role model,” she said. “And Tim Burton because I love his crazy imagination. He comes up with these characters that are just so fascinating and the costumes and just creates these whole worlds.”

She also said that she never intended to be a rapper and that acting was her first priority. “I went to school to be an actress. I never expected to be a rapper. It just fell in my lap,” she continued. “So I would like to get an acting gig. I hope that when I am done with the tour I can go back and do some acting. That is my long-term goal.”
