As earlier reported, Nicki Minaj isn’t entirely impressed with the nominations for the 2015 MTV Video Music Awards.
For, despite being up for three honors, the rapper – like her fans – is confused as to why her ‘Feeling Myself’ visual featuring Beyonce was shut out.
In true Onika fashion, she let her sentiments be known.
Her words, however, have courted a very public response from multi-nominated Taylor Swift.
See what went down after the jump…
The melee ensued when Minaj shared the following with her followers and Swift swooped in…
@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..
— Taylor Swift (@taylorswift13) July 21, 2015
…to which Nicki responded with…
Huh? U must not be reading my tweets. Didn’t say a word about u. I love u just as much. But u should speak on this. @taylorswift13
— NICKI MINAJ (@NICKIMINAJ) July 21, 2015
@taylorswift13 I’m still confused as to why u just tweeted me when I made it abundantly clear… pic.twitter.com/A5kJyi6fQC
— NICKI MINAJ (@NICKIMINAJ) July 21, 2015
Swift capped off the exchange with…
@NICKIMINAJ If I win, please come up with me!! You’re invited to any stage I’m ever on.
— Taylor Swift (@taylorswift13) July 21, 2015
Minaj, though, isn’t happy with the way the matter is beginning to be handled by the media…
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
— NICKI MINAJ (@NICKIMINAJ) July 21, 2015
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”?
— NICKI MINAJ (@NICKIMINAJ) July 21, 2015
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.
— NICKI MINAJ (@NICKIMINAJ) July 21, 2015
Developing…
Meek must not be dicking her down right. Girl shut up.
LMAO SHERRY PLS
Your Old Crusty Ass Would Kno About Not Getting D*** You Hating Ass Shriveled Up Nematode
Nicki desperate for attention since Queen Kim WASHED her atbthe BET Awards. 😐
Nicki p8ssy got scared when Taylor clocked the shade she was indirectly throwing at her. Nicki backtracking after being called out by white people’s GODDESS!
LMAO. if her album sales weren’t bad enough, wait until her next album drops.
Nicki done got herself in the wrong argument — Taylor is white people’s version of Beyonce. CHIIIIILE, watch Nicki get dragged and battered. Watch all her music flop from here on out.
the way taylor talked down on nicki by syaing that she can come on stage with her on any award show if she wins, made nicki look stupid. almost as if taylor is saying, u stank ass ho, come on stage when i win a n award so u know what it feels like to be winning.
p.s taylor is the O.G trendsetter behind the success fo super bass. after she sang that is heverywhere, white teenage nerds were buying that ish like crazy.
White media (Sherry), TF up.. ????
Taylor doesn’t do subliminals. She scalped Nicki’s head in one tweet.
Nicki needs Safaree back. She’s been off her game so badly that she cannot even stick by her diss.
Yaaaaas Taylor you better throw that light shade…let the Lil Kim knock off know she’s only allowed on stage if she’s sent for or invited! Kiiii
Fun Fact: Lil Kim is a previous Video of the Year VMA….Nicki clearly will neva!
*VMA Video of the Year WINNER
B**** don’t start with that lil flop kim s*** i’m here to drag today
????
G I R L
B Y E ????????????
But where lil kim chong VMA noms at tho?
B**** the awards are on the mantel next to her Grammy…while she on twitter begging for moonmen! Btw Nicki knows who to try…usually she goes for accomplishments and chart positions, but she can’t play that with Ms. Taylor who sales millions not streams millions!
You tried it when Lil’ Kim won a Grammy and a VMA for Video of the Year. Missy Elliott did too. What about darling Nicki???
Somewhere, Lil’ Kim is getting LIFE!
You feel right?!…you feel me *in New York voice*
The shadiest shade that Taylor can throw is put Lil’ Kim on the remix of her next single and make it go #1, giving Kim ANOTHER #1 single while Nicki has none.
Taylor Swift @taylorswift13 33m33 minutes ago
@NICKIMINAJ If I win, please come up with me!! You’re invited to any stage I’m ever
I would die if Taylor actually called her up to the stage after she wins…. Nicki’s sounding ungrateful. Both she and Bey were nominated for their fair share of awards. Honestly it should be Rihanna or Ciara nominated for video of the year. Nicki and Beys recent videos aren’t all that.
Nicki needs to shut up already. Her music is wack as hell! She should feel lucky she gets any recognition for the trash she releases.
I see no lies.
b**** your nappy p**** is whack. #beSeated
No Mariah vma,bet,grammy or any noms this year. is that why you madt?
Mariah doesn’t need awards nominations in 2015 when she is what Nicki will never be – a legend, an original, an influencer, a diva.
Her music isn’t whack now your going too far
CHAWWLLLLLL! THIS TEA IS GOOD AS SH*T! It feels like Dec. 13, 2013 alllllll over again!
Let me go reactivate twitter and get my life.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qf4lrGx55x0
Ok I live for that Spotify shade Onika. Nicki Minaj needs to apologies to Taylor Swift because she’s the biggest female pop musician right now you don’t want to be in her bad books anyways she’s the reason why you crossed over with Superbass.
I watched this go down on twitter and Nicki has a point about the Ryan post.
–
It’s like they’re trying to make it look like Taylor is a victim.
Exactly, they’re trying to protect Taylor’s “America’s Sweetheart Image”.
Wow Taylor had her together tho.
Wth is Rhianna so white
Oh that’s Rihanna? I thought it was some white woman
Taylor Swift is the biggest woman in pop right now she has the crown.
Niki is right i’m am not a fan. but if Taylor or Miley did that video it would be in the VOTY category
No, it wouldn’t. That video was complete trash and is being handled as such. Then again Onika is complete trash, but MTV still has enough pity to throw a random nomination her way.
Louis vs Zayne twitter fight was much better though.
Taylor Swift all of a sudden feels she is a bad bittch now lol. She knows she is the one that made those noms so if anyone says anything bad she feels some kind of way.
–
“Feeling Myself” should of gotten nominated and “All Hands On Deck” by Tinashe but these white award shows don’t care they only want to cater to there white queens i,e Taylor and V****.
Typical racist remark made by a bitter Black person for their mediocre fave. Stop stanning for trash and maybe you’ll see awards rewarded to your preferred artists. Mariah, Whitney, Aretha, Patti, Tina, Toni, and endless other Black women who were showered with awards, praise, and success by the “White Award shows” and the “White media.”
THANK YOU!!!!!! Always trying to throw the race card. LMAO.
Yes those black women were showed with praise by white media, However Mariah, Whitney, Aretha, Patti, Tina and Toni where all products of white media. Tommy Mottola created Mariah, Clive Davis created Whitney and he’s doing the same thing with JHud now. Nicki never directed anything at Taylor Swift, she just felt some kind of way because it applied to her. Now Nicki is the bad guy taking jabs at poor sweet Taylor Swift. ????
And Taylor swift didn’t have to insert herself. Maybe she felt guilty?
Like I always say: if the shoe fits
Nicki told no lies tho!! The media and industry is more catered to white artists/celebrities. Look how Ryan stated Nicki took a jab while saying Taylor loves and supports. Trying to make Nicki out to be the bad guy, when she is only stating her truth about this industry and never mentioned any names. While Taylor throws shade bringing herself into an argument that had nothing to do with her. If Taylor was a black girl, she would be no where as popular and successful as she is! She is beyond basic but she has the skin color and american girl next door personality to match. I don’t expect her to understand where Nicki is coming from. Taylor’s success is getting to her head!!!
Hey babydoll, this website has been a fckn mess.
Thank You!????
I see no lies !
Nicki needs to chill, she just won best female hip hop artist for the umpteenth time. Be thankful Nicki.
Hello love!
Slayonce! I miss you! How you been? I thunk I read on here you going to see Ms. Jackson! ? 🙂 . Guess what!!??! I’m going too!!!! 🙂
Two overrated and talentless girls
I would have liked what you said until I saw your screen name.
this is what these white awards show does . the Grammy rarely nominate black in the big category.Why Sam smith stay got all those nomination and John legend song all of me stuck in the RNB category. yet both were a smash.
Kanye said it . blacks don’t get nominated in the Umbrella category look how many Grammys Beyonce has yet she never won in the Umbrella category.
Taylor tried to throw shade with maybe one of the men took your slot” read but hurry up and came correct with her last statement.???????????? Nicki ready to drag a biitch. Its like black women in pop have to work 10x harder!
Nicki is a has been in the pop world do you honestly expect the VMA’s to acknowledge her? She better do like her spirit animal Gaga and drop a jazz album. Maybe she can drop a comedy album with bill Cosby
Nicki is still basically the only successful female rapper of this current generation. She is a household name and is currently topping the Hot 100 charts. You are delusional.
^Which “hot 100 chart” is Nicki topping boo? This trick has never topped that chart and it’s been over half a decade now. She’s a fake ass and her time is up.
Topping the charts where? She couldn’t even get a #1 with David Guetta. Pop doesn’t use her anymore, deal.
Crying
Unless their name is Thighyonce who has 100 writers, producers, and choreographers on call to prepare a next era for her while she pays every media agency to continue to hype her nonexistent throne.
Wah. Wah. Wah. Biitch shut the fukk up!
If Miley did Anaconda or feeling my self it would have been #1 for weeks and had 20 vma noms …..
Miley’s antics were shocking and new but even she became washed up after a few months. Nicki is old news and the video sucked and was nothing new from her. Don’t get me started on the songs. Did feeling myself even. Chart anywhere???
Yeah it peaked at #39 on the hot 100 and #1 on the hip hop charts. Which makes it a HIT!
Miley DID do an “Anaconda” with Can’t Stop and she was hated on by the media everywhere. GTFO with your racist a55.
Miley also did Wrecking Ball were she was actually naked and won VOTY.
Taylor deleted her tweet haha!
I never liked ‘feelin myself’… It’s a stupid a-ss song just like ‘partition,’ no substance whatsoever. It amazes me how ppl on social media support stupid sh!t but I detect no lies about what Nicki said regarding spotify and tidal.
Nicki is pathetic. Taylor 1989 album outsells her whole discography.
What do sales have to do with anything. If Kidz Bop 78 outsold, say, Lauryn Hill’s last album, would that make it better? You sound dumb.
Best believe if Onika had all the nominations she thinks she deserved,she wouldn’t feel the need to highlight the plight of African Americans in the Entertainment industry.I love how she (and many others) conveniently run back to their race cocoon when things don’t go their way.As for Taylor,she needs an new army of Brock Lesnar sized boyfriends to keep her busy from picking up on tweets that have little to nothing to do with her
Miley was already in a video called “feeling myself” and it sold more than the trash that featured beyond boring
That white media is about to destroy Nicki. Beyonce may be dumb but she isn’t that stupid to diss white media.
the only thing i agree with is how Nicki is exposing the media.
Nicki Garbaj should expose her swagger jacking, gimmicky, fraudulent ways first.
R.I.P. Nicki your career is over you don’t mess with TAYLOR.
I cannot wait!
Plastic minaj always playing the victim and starting drama like she didn’t throw shade first
Nicki bout to be blacklisted like Keri lol
Taylor really does think she’s the next beyonce , acting like a queen , but she needs to know acting this way thinking she’s the best thing since pizza needs to get a reality check . Her so called friends aren’t even A lists they’re using her just as much as she’s using them to seem popular . You can tell Taylor always wanted to be the queen B but couldn’t . She’s a basic B! Always arguing on Twitter with other celebs . Beyonce would never . How ever I would love to see her start on someone like beyonce or Adele and see her get her skinny ass dragged
The next Thighyonce? LMAO GIRL you tried it! Taylor Swift easily outsold Thighyonce’s overrated album in less time. Taylor has been far more successful in far less time and without resorting to walking over 4 other Black girls in the process to do so.
Everyone in the world besides bey haters and delusional swifties know that Taylor will never be on Beyonce’s level of talent, acclaim, influence, and longevity. Just because she is the most popular female artist right now doesnt mean she is gonna be selling 800k in three days, have songs peak in the top 3 of hot 100, selling out arenas and stadiums and be the one of the biggest artists in the world 18 years after her career start. She has the popularity but i doubt longevity…
She wasn’t complaining about white media when she made those basic pop songs like Starships
oop!
Wait at me actually agreeing with you for once, Mark/Bird.
YASSSS!!!!
Icky is losing it, Taylor is the reason why there’s even a Nicki. Recall Taylor making SuperBase popular? Nicki would of had flopping rap songs if it wasn’t for Taylor. She just a ccunt that respects no one, even people that helped her the most (SB, Taylor, Cha).

Good point! Super bass exploded after Taylor performed it
#taylormadeHA
I don’t buy it. She was salty about not being nominated and tried to turn it around into some lecture about black women not being rewarded for their contributions. Anaconda and Feeiing Myself are both trash and clearly not worthy for the award. She needs to stop
B**** Mariah has been trash for almost 10 years now.
Thighyonce’s music has been trash for the entirety of her plagiarized career, so don’t start b1tch. Where are her memorable songs? I’ll wait…
Taylor is the biggest hypocrite didn’t she just dis Katy in bad blood??
And she done NOTHING for Black women or women in music except beefed with them. From Kim to Mariah to Iggy. She done nothing to support other female rappers. Like Kim said, she want to be the ONLY one. The meltdown is clear.
.
AND the “white” media is just after clicks, just like you posing your fake big @ss on your cover for clicks.
Omg Onika is going to p*** the wrong people off, I don’t see longevity for her
With the quality of her “music,” longevity was never a goal. Her owners will just milk whatever cents she’s worth.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PuVwFOJ5x8A
Can somebody just lock Taylor Swift up in one closet until the VMAs are over. SMH her antics of her acting like she is surprised when she wins award is just over the top stupid and not only that her no rhythm ass trying to dance during the shows are ridiculous. Ughh…
Taylor is a basic b**** also, the most overrated act ever
No that would be Lana.
But how is Lana overrated if she’s a “flop” like you claim every day?
this heaux

Nicki has been getting dragged all day on Twitter. Meek better say something.
I’m glad Nicki is finally saying something. She NEVER gets her dues or respect she deserves and its because she’s a strong black woman who isn’t ashamed of her sexuality who came from rough upbringings. They wanna paint her as just some ghetto angry black girl while Taylor is America’s perfect sweetheart f*** that basic b****!!!!
No it’s because she’s a clown and sucks.
What dues? The drivel that comes out of her mouth deserves to be put on mute not on an award show. Taylor is also basic as f#ck, but at least her music has some class to it.
And gtfo with not being afraid of her sexuality. Being s*** and showing off your a55h0le are two completely different things.
Lmao @ TGJ holding my comments. Yall are so biased when it comes Icki and BeySnoozé.
You so right Nicki this white media will do anything to trash black artists is well known
Taylor just invited Nicki on stage when she wins. shortest beef ever
Taylor was just looking for new song writing material for her new album. Congrats Taylor, you will get your new #1 song courtesy of Necki Menaj.
LMAO she’s always trying to stand up for “ALL wimmmin!!!1” whenever she wins her EBT Award or whatever but the second someone beats her it’s “RACISM! SEXISM! I DONT GET ENOUGH CREDIT!!” Like girl, just shut the f*** up and go make another softcore pr0n, maybe you’ll make it next year since you’re so desperate for a damn Moonman.
And kii at the SJs on Twitter falling for her b*******. If a white artist was saying the EXACT s*** Onika just tweeted they would’ve gotten dragged to hell and back. Thank God the artists I listen to the most care more about their music and artistry than a fan-voted VMA.
I for one can’t believe any artist continues to pay MTV any amount of dust since they stopped airing music like 15 years ago.
Nicki Minaj should worry less about (the much more talented) Taylor Swift being nominated for better music and videos at the VMA’s and more on better her talent than relying on her plastic body parts, s**, pretending to be in love with Meek Mill and guest features to release six music singles without the Pink Print going platinum. She can’t blame race because Kendrick Lamar, J. Cole and Drake have no problem earning a platinum album certification. (Step your game up, Onika, and stop making excuses. Even Beyonce and Drake couldn’t help you achieve a platinum album.)
I’m offended because we have a REAL issue over in this nation. People are being killed and are going home with pay and Nicki is using it because she didn’t get a nom for a freaking moon man?! The same people are mad because “they don’t support black artistry” are the same ones that calls the BET Awards the EBT awards and don’t even show up to the Soul Train or Hip Hop awards. Kiss my BlACk @ss Icky!

Lmfao tell her
Nicki should be a REAL woman and not backpeddle like she wasn’t talk about Taylor. Nicki didn’t think that Taylor would clap back by addressing her directly. Nicki is a coward.
By the looks of twitter…Taylor swift is being dragged by the barbs, 2ne1’s blackjack and CL’s GZB.
–
Lmao Taylor chose the wrong day to stick her nose where it doesn’t belong.
So she is being dragged by a bunch of uneducated hood rats, ignorant SJW Asians that can’t load up Tumblr so decided to go on a Twitter crusade, and whatever the f*ck GZB stands for?
You do no south Korea is one of the countries with the fastest Internet right?
Taylor was being dragged for copying 2ne1s video “come back home”
Thats cute but the rest of Twitter is dragging Nicki and the media will likely join in too. Her career is done
shut the f-ck up,i know that your head is so far up swifties ass to realize that Nicki as people too, so don’t get this twisted.
I hope Nicki kick Taylor on her flat ass that stiff dancing ho she’s feeling herself a lil too much!
And hihi at her acting like she’s always been Urban and all about “art” when just, what, 3 years ago her dumbass was selling out for filth as soon as Ms. Taylor Swift made Super Bass a smash hit (like someone mentioned earlier). Had no problem clinging to the suburban middle class whites when they were eating up Starships. Welp. No wonder the GP said “NO” to The Pinkprint as it struggles to sell 900K worldwide while Onika is bundling tickets to her (literally) half-empty tour.
And yes, I understand systematic racism and the objectification of black women etc. Don’t come at me and call me a racist because if Garbaj wasn’t a hypocrite, I wouldn’t be typing all of this.
It’s funny because she was clowning the BET awards when she won & now she’s in her feelings over this. When has Nicki ever spoken about these issues, yet she will now mention it to justify her not being nominated. She needs to get over herself. Neither of those trash videos deserves recognition anywhere
Waiting on the barbz to clock @Slayriah @Mark111 and @Rosie these h*** are talking real reckless right now.
The Barbz are too busy getting their Elementary School diploma to get in an argument with people that know how to use logic.
Don’t bring the race card b**** Your album will sell if you release a quality project
If black people are oppressed in the music industry explain the success of the following artists
1.Lauryn Hill/The Fugees
2.Outkast
3.50 Cents
4.TLC
5.Janet Jackson
6.Prince
7.Michael Jackson still moved units when he was black
So please dont race bait when the artists above me and countless others i haven’t listed have sold millions after delivering a stellar project.Even during Jim Crow Era Fats Domino was a very succesful artist because he released great tunes.
So expect so expect “pinkdom come” “reasonable pink” or whatever trash album onika releases to flop even harder than the pinkprint not because she is technically black but because she will not deliver a worthy project and deserves to flop.
There is no race card to be played. Even today, Black artists are completely dominating the Billboard charts. Currently, the charts are vastly over represented by Black artists.
If the VMAs were racist then how does Nicki explain the nominations for Kendrick and Beyonce? Fettt Wap? Im not here for her using relevant social justice issues to heal the wounds on her ego. I don’t use Taylor but she gathered Nicki real quick. The reason Taylor was applauded for Spotify and Nicki was dragged for Tidal is because they were arrogant enough to believe their star power would be enough to get people to pay $20 a month. The reason WB got a VOTY nom last year was because people talked about it for months. Anaconda and Feelin Myself were cute for 2 and a half weeks before no one cared anymore. Yall gave this talentless plastic joke titles like Queen of Hip-Hop and it’s deluded her mind to the point where she doesnt realize her star power and relevancy is fading fast. She is a flop now and no one’s checking for her. Race has nothing to do with, stop blaming your fading career on race.
Nicki..GTFOHWTBS…. .When you have pumped your body full of fossil fuels and tar, you’re going to come like that. What an insecure little……your music sucks! Your image is disgusting!!!
F**** the skinny bítches, you say?
Well, fck the thot-bodied, ran through, nasty ass population of women that you are the QUEEN of!!!!
Lol she read the shïīît out of her. I mean Nocki was clearly talking about Taylor subliminally and, just like Lil Kim, Miss Taylor doesn’t do subs.. Why can’t Nicki just ever be a real bīítch and talk straight up. She wack. Typical Queens bird
Dont know why they support these tacky racist and rigged award shows….
You’re racist and tacky!
She stans for Ciara… you can’t expect too much
Two words: White America. No matter how you choose to look at it, White has continually shined a lot more bright. Such a shame. Would’ve hoped we’d have made a lot more progress by now.
There can NEVER be any progress of you constantly keep blaming EVERYTHING on race. Geez.
Two words: White America. No matter how you choose to look at it, White has continually shined a lot more bright. Such a shame. Would’ve hoped we’d made a lot more progress by now.
How was this NOT directed towards Taylor? Is Taylor skinny? Was Taylor nominated? I rest my case.
Y’all saying Nicki is getting dragged on Twitter that’s a lie cause everyone is Nicki side go on tumblr Taylor swift is getting black lash people are finally seeing the white devil she really is sorry Nicki haters Nicki won this battle and not Taylor next time Taylor should mind her business obviously she felt guilty lol
This is why I hate stans lmao always acting like immature lil b******! This site is the only place with bias ass people talking so much nonsense about Nicki because they dislike her. It’s pathetic! ALL over Twitter people were saying Nicki was right and Taylor was wrong… But nonetheless you’s need to really grow tf up and learn to talk sense and notice real s***, whether you like an artist or not!
shfkfn @ her stans thinking Taylor started it WHEN
•NONE of the other VOTY nominees feature “skinny white women”
•there are two other black artists nominated, and 4 of the 5 nominated videos have POC artists (Bruno Mars included) so kii at her crying racism
•Onika’s pressed ass was literally fav’ing Taylor shade on Twitter.
And then when Taylor called her out and @ her dumb b**** had the nerve to backtrack. Stupid ass h**. Thank God her career is finished outside of the US. Maybe this will finish it for good there too.
She wasn’t complaining when she was receiving noms for her basic pop songs.
‘
She wasn’t complaining when Igor didn’t win the EBT awards even though Igor slayed her that year.
‘
She wasn’t complaining when she gets an invite to go to the Soul Train Awards and refuses to show up
‘
Girl sit your basic tattered plastic as$ down somewhere
Onika is kinda right about white media they dragged Tidal but applauded Taylor when she took out her stuff of spotify that s*** was really whack.
But girl you didn’t complain winning pop awards etc don’t be a hypocrite.
I see no lies Queen, Fucken White media disrespecting us. We aren’t given credit for all the shitt that we do, its white people first then black people… no no no no no Someone needed to gather them all.
Shut the F*** up. You sound ignorant as hell.
Bet Tyrese Shame video gets no nods next year and thats a well crafted mini movie music video.
If you look at the full list of nominations, she’s down for best female video and best hip hop video. Its not like she’s been ignored. It’s just arrogance on her part that she thinks her video is good enough for best of the year. …And Beyoncé is nominated for best of the year, so Minaj can’t really play the race card.
NICKI MINAJ ✔@NICKIMINAJ
If your video celebrates women with very slim bodies, you will be nominated for vid of the year
It obviously was about Taylor swift. Taylor’s video had loads of skinny girls in the video, which she is nominated for…don’t know why’d she’d be coming for. taylor swift!
She Would not give a f*** about this if she was nominated. why is she crying anyway doesn’t she have 2 or 3 noms? She’s such a FLOP crybaby
Bad Blood
