Nicki Minaj’s Celebrity Hairstylist Speaks Out, After Firing

terrence-davidson-speaks-out-splits-from-nicki-minaj-the-jasmine-brand
Recently, surprising news hit that Nicki Minaj had to decided to say deuces to her glam squad and long-time hair stylist, Terrence Davidson.

While the details remain fuzzy, our partner, theJasmineBrand.com, chatted with the dearly departed, finding out what’s next for Minaj’s ex-hair-guru. Earlier this year, he released a statement confirming his departure:

“I would like to inform the media and supporters that I’ve decided to step away as hair stylist and wig creator for Nicki Minaj. It has been an amazing experience offering me a chance to express my creativity and exhibit my love for the art form of wig design. I have decided to part ways from Nicki Minaj because I would like to explore other opportunities within my own brand and re-energize my creativity through work in fashion editorial, beauty consultations, media personality, ‘how-to’ lectures and hair show development. I am very proud of the body of work built with Nicki Minaj and I appreciate the support over the years from fans who’ve expressed love for my craft. Look forward to seeing me larger than life in 2013.”

To date, neither Nicki nor Terrence have discussed what ended their business relationship. And while we couldn’t get him to spill the tea (hell, we tried!), we briefly chatted with him about how he continues to progress, professionally.

TJB: You’ve been pretty quiet since moving on from working with Nicki Minaj. Are you surprised that it’s such a big story in the press?

I’m not surprised.

TJB: Looking back, is there anything that you wish that you could have done differently, working with such a huge artist?

No, everything happens for a reason you live and you learn.

TJB: What’s the biggest lesson you’ve learned, in terms of creativity, by working with Nicki?

What the wash won’t do, the rinse will…. :)

TJB: So I hear, your schedule is just as busy as it was, while you were touring w/ her. What have you been up to these days?

I have partnered with Mizani, to transforms the lives of young children living with hair lost illnesses. The Wigs4Kids organization is making a big difference in their community, but we are looking to make it global.




I didn't know he was fired... I thought he "left"

He was probably fired for this mess

fabouluz 10th-Mar-2013 02:38 pm (UTC)
Yes
pickledprose 10th-Mar-2013 02:43 pm (UTC)
he probably wasn't being paid enough in the first place to stand there and look at her face so he retaliated with this

He was. He's a horrible stylist and his makeup is for drag queens. He needs to never be near a woman's face and hair ever again

Her hair has been looking better recently, I dont get why she pays to have hair with such awful roots though.
rainbowren 10th-Mar-2013 02:42 pm (UTC)
Well thank god she fired his ass, she looks great these days!

I need that dress in my life!
tragickingdomxo 10th-Mar-2013 04:01 pm (UTC)
I really like her new look, good job to whoever orchestrated this
crystalzelda 10th-Mar-2013 02:52 pm (UTC)
What the wash won’t do, the rinse will…. :)

Someone tell me what he means by this plz!
ponpiri 10th-Mar-2013 02:55 pm (UTC)
That's what I'm trying to figure out. He's clearly throwing shade but the only thing I have is he's saying she's fake (lol).
crystalzelda 10th-Mar-2013 02:58 pm (UTC)
Maybe what goes around comes around? Lol I have no clue! I can't read hairdressing shade.
smokesinatra 10th-Mar-2013 04:03 pm (UTC)
I took it to mean his departure was a good thing. like, wash = working hard with nicki even though they had issues, but the rinse (=leaving) is the actual solution to the problems he had with nicki. but idk, it's pretty open-ended
cossard 10th-Mar-2013 07:04 pm (UTC)
i thought it meant like she's not creative or talented but she has stylists who are to make her appear so to the public.
jello404 10th-Mar-2013 03:03 pm (UTC)
She's been looking amazing since she got rid of yo ass STFU you said you left before now you're just making yourself look extra bad.
ebertrules 10th-Mar-2013 03:04 pm (UTC)
She fired this guy months ago but in this month's black hair he was listed as her wig guy. not that i expect any level of research from blackhair tbh.
bangpoppop 10th-Mar-2013 03:26 pm (UTC)
I fucking love Freaks. I heard that shit last night and it's been stuck in my head since
iamsam4eva 10th-Mar-2013 03:32 pm (UTC)
Someone please explain Nicki Minaj to me. Her voice, her attitude, and her image make my skin crawl. How does she have a recording contract?
babyyouloveit 10th-Mar-2013 03:39 pm (UTC)
She was actually good back when she first was introduced.
skonka 10th-Mar-2013 03:54 pm (UTC)
check the hits and update your opinion.
iamsam4eva 10th-Mar-2013 04:01 pm (UTC)
i honestly can't listen to more than 10 seconds of her jarring voice. maybe it's a generational thing? i was blessed with MJ and Madonna as my pop icons... (that is, if nicki is considered pop.... or an icon).
tragickingdomxo 10th-Mar-2013 04:11 pm (UTC)
The market for a new female rapper was wide open and Cash Money wanted to make another zillion dollars putting out whatever they could, so hence Nicki Minaj.
markedglory 10th-Mar-2013 04:41 pm (UTC)
She messed with Wayne.
saltonmycuts 10th-Mar-2013 08:19 pm (UTC)
Listen to Pink Friday. It's actually a good cd now she's horrible and i agree with you. this clown shouldn't be on American idol either.
stussytribe 10th-Mar-2013 03:37 pm (UTC)
not him, her
tragickingdomxo 10th-Mar-2013 04:03 pm (UTC)
She needed to move on with her look and he's gotten enough notoriety to teach things like seminars etc. and make a ton of $$$ working that circuit. I wish I were vaguely associated with someone famous or a blogger like Gala Darling so I could charge $750 for a class that will probably be of no benefit of the people taking it except that they can say ~*I worked with someone famous*~
smokesinatra 10th-Mar-2013 04:07 pm (UTC)
that gala darling shit is absurd. can you imagine dropping that much dough only to get "I hung out with gala darling!" "literally who?" out of it
tragickingdomxo 10th-Mar-2013 04:16 pm (UTC)
It really is considering her blog (which was 90% stuff from other sources) is her only real credential and any other writing job she's had she's gotten fired from.
aqueous_drama 10th-Mar-2013 04:27 pm (UTC)
that ~radical self love~ tho...
msloserrific 10th-Mar-2013 06:53 pm (UTC)
i never thought I'd see GD on ONTD...and I am reading the Blogacademy post on GOMI right now. Ha!

I used to love her site back in the day, but it has gotten increasingly tragic...
galagooo 10th-Mar-2013 04:31 pm (UTC)
Her hair has been looking better lately. Still obvious wigs, but much better.
cabernet 10th-Mar-2013 04:49 pm (UTC)
He deserved to be fired. Her wigs have been a million times better since he's been gone. I can't believe it took her so fucking long
prophecypro 10th-Mar-2013 04:53 pm (UTC)
Must be the easiest and hardest job in the world at the same damn time
green__desire 10th-Mar-2013 04:55 pm (UTC)
fuck that asshole, i still want my money for stealing/butchering that look on the bottom right.
roguewave3 10th-Mar-2013 05:37 pm (UTC)
good because her hairline usually makes me ill
