Nicki Minaj can celebrate more than just a new year; the Young Money emcee can now boast that she’s a platinum selling artist.

The RIAA has confirmed that The Barbie’s debut album Pink Friday has been certified platinum with 1 million copies sold.

As previously reported, Pink Friday was certified gold in December with over 500,000 units sold.

Minaj’s album sales have surpassed Kanye’s My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy, and Jay-Z’s Greatest Hits which were all released on the same day.
