Nicki Minaj has expressed her frustration over the double standards women in showbiz are forced to face. 

In her upcoming documentary My Time Now, the rapper revealed that she is often perceived in a negative light simply because she is assertive and self-assured.

"When I am assertive, I'm a bitch. When a man is assertive, he's a boss. He bossed up. No negative connotation behind 'bossed up'," she explained.

"But lots of negative connotation behind being a bitch. Donald Trump can say, 'You're fired'. Let Martha Stewart run her company the same way and be the same way. [People will say] 'F**king old evil bitch!' But Donald Trump, he gets to hang out with young bitches and have 50 different wives and just be cool. 'Oh, Donald, we love you, Donald Trump!'" 

Minaj also confessed that she struggles to deal with the pressure to please everyone.

"When you're a girl, you have to be everything. You have to be dope at what you do but you have to be super sweet and you have to be sexy and you have to be this, you have to be that, and you have to be nice," she said.

"It's like, 'I can't be all those things at once. I'm a human being'."
