AceShowbiz - Nicki Minaj got warm welcome ahead of her first appearance in Helsinki on July 3-4. The organizers of Summer Up Festival, a site in which Nicki would perform, put 1,000 life-sized cutouts of the "Anaconda" hitmaker in front of the Helsinki Cathedral on Wednesday, June 10.
The life-sized cutouts were taken from the butt-centric artwork of her "Anaconda" single. The stunt was intended to promote the European music festival to garner global attention. Fans were encouraged to take the cutouts home. Some of them took more than one cutout home. However, the organizers also hoped that the concertgoers would bring the cutouts to the show. 100 lucky fans also found 2-day tickets for the festival behind the cutouts.
Fans couldn't resist taking photographs with the "Superbass" songtress' cutouts. Some of them struck a similar pose to Minaj in the cutouts. Some just proudly took the cutouts home. They took to Twitter and Instagram to post the pictures with hashtag "#MyNicki."
