Taylor Swift’s White Privilege Leads to Bad Blood on Twitter with Nicki Minaj
KQED Arts ^ | July 22, 2015 | Emmanuel Hapsis

The VMA nominations were announced this week. Who cares? you might be thinking. MTV doesn’t even play music videos anymore. Both valid points, but the awards still mean something to the artists. This became clear when Nicki Minaj took to Twitter to voice her confusion over “Anaconda” not being nominated for Video of the Year, despite breaking YouTube records and causing an international stir.

NICKI MINAJ ✔ ‎@NICKIMINAJ If your video celebrates women with very slim bodies, you will be nominated for vid of the year 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊

Taylor Swift ✔ ‎@taylorswift13 @NICKIMINAJ I've done nothing but love & support you. It's unlike you to pit women against each other. Maybe one of the men took your slot..

Nicki Mange confuses pornography with talent. Just like that Kardashian blimp.

I understand Taylor has already apologized for daring to exercise her privilege.

It’s even worse. She’s white, blond, and pretty.

She would be hugely successful no matter what she did. Tell me I’m wrong.

her confusion over “Anaconda” not being nominated for Video of the Year

I saw the video. I'm thoroughly unimpressed. A stripper act set to music, big deal.

Anaconda is ghetto slang for penis. Nicki Manaj is a hoe.

I think if Nicky had done this version it would have been nominated.

Taylor Swift actually has some talent...that’s her privilege.

The world is full of skinny, blond white girls... it still takes talent.

That Anaconda vid is a little disturbing IMO.

Perhaps I’m a sicko, but that was funny.
