Nicki Minaj Cries "Freedom" at American Music Awards

Nicki Minaj took a break from pretending to feud with Mariah Carey long enough to perform at the 2012 American Music Awards.

The eccentric singer - who won Favorite Rap/Hip-Hop Album for her album "Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded" - took to the stage last night and performed a track off that CD.

Watch her cry "Freedom" now and then check out her duet at the ceremony with Justin Bieber:
