Wig-wearing femcee Nicki Minaj doesn't sport any height-defying coifs in her new 'Super Bass' video, but we counted four total -- a half-pink-and-blonde hairpiece, a swampy green mop, a wavy pink shag cut and a glow-in-the-dark (via blacklight) Barbarella 'do.

The fifth single off her 'Pink Friday' debut, 'Super Bass' was offered as a bonus track off the deluxe edition of the album, and received a small cult following after country singer Taylor Swift rapped it on a radio show.

In the Sanaa Hamri-directed clip, Minaj channels both her Barbie personality when riding a motor-icicle and her British-accent alter-ego Roman Zolanski during a champagne pink pool party. Minaj also turns off the lights for one of her signature lap dances -- made infamous during her recent tour with Lil Wayne. The uber-catchy "boom, badoom, boom, boom" chorus makes 'Super Bass' the most pop-friendly Minaj song released to radio yet.

Minaj wrapped up her opening gig on Weezy's I Am Still Music tour last weekend and will be joining Britney Spears this summer on the Femme Fatale tour. It kicks off June 17 in Sacramento, Calif.
