While you (and I) were away, things continued to heat up between Nicki Minaj and Taylor Swift who (as we told you earlier), is seated comfy and snug as MTV VMA “Video of the Year” contender by which Nicki feels her “Anaconda” and bottom has earned and therefore, owed a spot.
Nicki asserts that (as per the powers that be) Taylor’s nom for “Bad Blood” over her “Anaconda” is culturally biased versus merited.
Things got heated….
…followed by a lil’ unfollowing and more:
I'm not always confident. Just tired. Black women influence pop culture so much but are rarely rewarded for it. https://t.co/2xOvJzBXJX

Their wrangle (which ended up including a couple of fans + involving Ryan Seacrest) was shut out by a deletion of her (Taylor Swift)’s own tweets in an effort to bow out gracefully while Nicki continued to speak her peace. Ryan eventually deleted his replies too.
Nothing I said had to do with Taylor. So what jabs? White media and their tactics. So sad. That's what they want. https://t.co/AfcwoyDvpg

Ryan posted a headline of Taylor saying she loves & supports me. But not me saying the same to her. Lol. Their headline says I took a "jab"?

I'm so glad u guys get to see how this stuff works. Taylor took her music off spotify and was applauded. We launched Tidal & were dragged.

Meanwhile however, Rihanna stepped in-in the middle of the big stink to put out there; a promo ad photo for her new perfume (“RiRi by Rihanna”) coming soon…
P.S. Though…
Wait a minute. Wait a minute. I’ma let you finish, but:
Perhaps a repeat of the same?
