Nicki Minaj Rocks Hammerstein Ballroom With Help From Rihanna,Lloyd Banks, Kanye And More For Hot97 Thanksgiving Concert

Rap newcomer NICKI MINAJ served up a Thanksgiving treat for fans on Thursday night (25Nov10) when she brought her superstar pals RIHANNA, DRAKE and KANYE WEST out onstage in New York.

The Your Love hitmaker headlined Hot 97 radio's holiday concert with fellow rapper Fabolous, who entertained the packed crowd with a mix of songs old and new, including guest appearances by Lloyd Banks and Juelz Santana for the G-Unit star's catchy Beamer, Benz or Bentley.

The rapper continued to give back to her devotees and was joined by Drake for Moment 4 Life, fuelling rumours of a love affair by warmly embracing and kissing her Young Money Records labelmate as the track came to an end.

But she immediately killed any tabloid gossip of a romance between her and Drake, telling the crowd, "I still got my lipstick on! I know you New York, don't be startin' something!"

And Minaj saved her biggest surprise for last, sending fans into a screaming fit as West ran into the spotlight for their underground smash Monster. The Stronger star was repaying the favour for Minaj, who had joined West for his late night set in New York two nights earlier.

After the song, she told the audience, "See what I do for you New York? Only for my hometown!"

Minaj closed the show by signing T-shirts and throwing them out into the crowd. The rapper also took to her Twitter.com blog after event to thank all of her guests, writing, "Best nite of my life! Thank u busta, keyshia, rihanna, drake, kanye, hot97, New York & New Jersey!!!! Mmmuuuuaaaahhhh!!!!!!"
