Taylor Swift Calls Out Nicki Minaj for Dissing Her MTV VMA Nomination

She’s right that the “Anaconda” music video was wildly popular, racking up more than 500 million views on YouTube, but as with the Oscars and other awards, VMA nominations aren’t determined by popularity. Minaj picked up nods for Best Female Video and Best Hip-Hop Video (Anaconda) and Best Collaboration for her Bang Bang hit with Jessie J and Ariana Grande. “Remember her doing the kick”.

“You couldn’t go on social media without seeing people doing the cover art, choreo, outfits for Halloween”, she tweeted. “Did “Feeling Myself” miss the deadline?”

In addition, the Queens representative suggested when other “girls” break records with their videos they get nominations. Additionally, “Feeling Myself“, her three-minute buddy comedy with Beyoncé, didn’t receive any nominations. “One fan writes, “@NICKIMINAJ @MTV BETTA ANSWER RN!!!

“

If your video celebrates women with very slim bodies, you will be nominated for vid of the year”,

she tweeted, referring to T.Swift’s “Bad Blood” video, which features famous friends Selena Gomez, Gigi Hadid, Karlie Kloss, Zendaya and more. I’ll be on that stage to collect my awards for vid of the year.

Minaj concluded her shade-throwing rant with, “Ok love u guys I have to get ready”.

The MTV Video Music Awards nominations were announced today and there were some pretty strong reactions to the ones that made the cut. X in the box.

She also took to Instagram to post a amusing meme – a collage of photos with her and Beyonce not looking too pleased – with the statement, “The beyhive and barbz looking at each other after seeing feeling myself not being nominated like #VMAs”.
