Earlier this year Minaj took to social media to reveal that she was horrified to learn that her visual for the single ‘Anaconda’ hadn’t received a Video of the Year nomination despite the fact that it outperformed a number of the clips that were nominated.

Her theory? The media’s  habit of shunning sexuality when delivered by women of colour.

Now Miley Cyrus has stepped out to scold her for daring to make the observation.

    V**** is sort of right. Nicki’s argument made no sense as Beyonce was nominated in the same category.

    • danyboo August 27, 2015

      Right I agree and her body not even real at the end of the day so her case is not even relavent by Felicia

    • What now August 27, 2015

      Dat waz mi thought. Like b**** doesn’t Beyoncè have the same body without the ass shots and isn’t she in the exact category that u claim is being racist? Bye Felicia.

    • truth(nicki the reason A.I. is cancelled and Meek playn ha!!) August 28, 2015

      She read dat ho for FILTH HONEY!!!

  2. ughh.. August 27, 2015

    Miley you could’ve just sat this one out.. I was beginning to like you.. (sigh)

    • HailBeysus August 28, 2015

      Why, she came with an honest open and respectful opinion/comment on the subject. I agree with Miley 100%. Nicki is bitchy. It needed to be said.

    • truth(nicki the reason A.I. is cancelled and Meek playn ha!!) August 28, 2015

      Like she give a FU CK if yo BIITCH ASS like her or not. M*********!

        ‘mothafuckah’

    • AmbeRussell August 28, 2015

      When nicki retweeted an article staying why Miley won with wrecking ball an she was not nominated for andocanda, she invited Miley to respond. An she did and she knows and is aware of the inequalities black ppl face but saw how nicki used race to her advantage and made the issue about HERSELF. She knows nicki is selfish and can throw shots at ppl day and night and Miley isn’t here for the pitty party and being called out. Anyways, why does nicki wanna be known for andocanda and not a more progressive video that isn’t selling her body for YouTube views?

  3. KRow August 27, 2015

    I spot lies. Nicki is all about herself. She didn’t give a damn about black women treatment until her tacky video wasn’t nominated. She needs to have several seats.

    • KRow August 27, 2015

      I spot no lies*

  4. LIL’ KIM BIRTHED YO FAVES! August 27, 2015

    Preach it, Miley! Nicki Minaj has major karma coming her way. She is a bitter, nasty person. Kim warned everyone about that b**** years ago. Now the world is seeing Kim was 100% right.

    • BeyRihLiyah August 27, 2015

      Shut your bitter ass up you last 3 kim stans always recycle this tired ass video yall need to recycle kims pictures of krimlens old face so that the gp can be reminded of what kim looked like before the cheap apartment done plastic surgery

    • NickiM. August 27, 2015

      Nicki still gonna be Nicki the Queen of Rap … See with greatness u got to put up with a lot of hate , but this shall pass also

  5. BeyRihLiyah August 27, 2015

    Miley is a joke even though i kind of agree with her statement i cant take it serious because its coming from that cumm catcher miley

    • OMG Logic!!! August 27, 2015

      She’s catching hot Aussie and Kennedy cumm, so that’s gotta stand for something.

  6. Rosie August 27, 2015

    She is actually right, Onika just HAD to bring up race when Taylor called her out when it was obvious she was just mad she made this elaborate softcore pr0n, hoping it would make the song a #1 smash, hoping it would’ve been as iconic as Single Ladies or any of Robotney’s old videos, hoping it would turn The Pinkprint onto this massive era that sold millions worldwide only for nothing but a VEVO record that was snatched months later and for the video to be forgotten in two weeks.
    Of course, even ignoring all of that, Onika’s argument is still invalid due to 4/5 of the VOTY nominees have a POC as a lead or featured artist and her history of hating on black women (calling them ugly on social media/the lyrics about “nappy” hair).

    • WE FOUND RIHANNA August 27, 2015

      Lana’s Flop Rey Grammy? Or your fat musty ass getting a man which will happen 1st? Dead at ur composing an hour long sounding paragraph with self proclaimed facts on someone you don’t like or care for. Nicki doesn’t know you, you know her don’t f****** forget!

    • unfortunately no August 28, 2015

      That isn’t what happened at all. Nicki was venting on Twitter already talking about the double standards against women of colour and Taylor poked her nose in talking about “MUST BE A MAN WHO TOOK YOUR PLACE” …no one even MENTIONED Taylor. Some how she is allowed to chat s*** and still be treated like a fairy princess while everyone subscribes to the ‘angry black woman’ narrative when it comes to Nicki Minaj. Miley caping for Taylor is just another white woman who couldn’t see her own privilege if it twerked in front of her black culture stealing eyeballs.

      • AmbeRussell August 28, 2015

        But nicki used race in her favor. She has not help ANY black female rapper since she became established. She is quick to have any male rapper on her song, but no black female rapper and she is 3 albums and a rerelease deep in the industry. She would of had a point if she mentioned the lack of a rnb category, or lack of black females over all, BUT she didnt. It was “my video wasnt nominated bc I’m a black female and mtv doesn’t like my body” all while ignoring beyonce is nominated. Ignoring rihanna won 2 times. Ignoring only 6 white females won and 6 black females won and 1 with both (lady marmalade). See, that is an issue with me, she kept saying how black bodies can’t win, BUT bey and rihanna won with their black bodies. Also tlc, missy, and lauryn won being fully dressed making REAL music. Not tacky, try hard anaconda. Waterfalls, doo wop >>>>>>>>>anaconda

  7. Indie August 27, 2015

    Miley tells know lies! I hated Anaconda however I except that a lot of people liked it and thats fine, however MTV already gave Sir Mix A lot a tone of VMA’s for the original song and video, Anaconda is hit because it uses the entire sample and it’s just a ghetto twirk tune, there is nothing thought provoking, intelligent or original about it and there are plenty of better videos out, naked women shaking there ass is not an award winning concept i’m sorry!I’m not a Talor Swift fan but Bad Blood, wiped the floor with Anaconda put simply!

  8. Selenator *Same Old Love* is coming August 27, 2015

    I don’t like Mildred but she’s right. Beyonce is a curvy black woman who made a s*** video and was nominated. Nicki was on an ego trip and just used an issue because of convenience. Anaconda didn’t even have that big of an impact. It came as quick as it went. It didn’t last like Wrecking Ball did or Single Ladies.

  9. UR August 27, 2015

    It’s like you said – you’re a ‘white pop star’. You have no idea how hard it is trying to make it as a successful Black woman in any part of the world, let alone the western part of it. I don’t really know if I fully agree with Nicki’s statements regarding the VMAs this year but I can’t say that I completely disagree with them either.

  10. Molly August 27, 2015

    Speak on it MILEY!!!!

  11. Weezy Tha G.O.A.T August 27, 2015

    This trailer trash broad is right, not to mention Nicki only brings race into it when it benefits her. She was tweeting all this madness when the award shows were kissing her gigantic round ass.

    • Molly August 27, 2015

      EXACTLY!!!!

  12. Molly August 27, 2015

    Nicki played the race card because she knew that would get gullible ass black Twitter on her side.

  13. Theman August 27, 2015

    She’s correct. Nicki’s attitude sucks. Nicki was just angry that she didn’t get the nod. Women of color had nothing to do with it. That was a scapegoat to disguise her bitterness. Beyonce took her spot. But she won’t say nada about that.

  14. pat August 27, 2015

    Hate to agree with her but I have to.

  15. E Young August 27, 2015

    I have to agree with Miley Cyrus, Nicki Minaj was so quick to pull the race card that her argument did not make any sense. She made it about herself, like she is already nominated for three other awards… Like be grateful. There are so many artists who put in a lot of work in their videos who do not get credit. I’m a black male and I feel like many African Americans today like to pull the race card, because their own people will side with them, but not me. Nicki Minaj has a bad reputation for having a bad attitude toward the people she work with. I’m starting to see the little things lil Kim was saying about her. She has yet to prove people wrong about that. I like some of her music, but if she do more of embracing others, especially female rappers, she will have no problems.

  16. E Young August 27, 2015

    Although Miley Cyrus made good points, which I agree with. I don’t believe she should had commented on this issue, being so that she stole from black culture. This is pretty obvious.

  17. Molly August 27, 2015

    Where were all these people before Miley made this statement it took Miley too say this to see that Nicki was full of shittt? Chileee you girls gotta start having a mind of your own.

    • Monica Stan August 27, 2015

      The irony coming from the biggest ass kisser on the site.

      • Molly August 27, 2015

        You got me confused with @LakeErie

  18. Lake Erie August 27, 2015

    Lol Miley right though.

  19. Mark111 /.\ August 27, 2015

    I said the same thing weeks ago. Nicki was talking about body image as if she was born with that body she bought.

  20. jelly August 27, 2015

    Mily just had to stick her two flat titties into this already dead fight. Nicki was right to call the VMA’S out on their obvious racism, just because they nominated Beyonce the token black woman don’t meant s***. it’s not like she’s gonna win it anyway, but they could have at least nominated nicki, her song did have more of an impact then some of the songs that were nominated.

    • Molly August 27, 2015

      Beyoncé was honored with the MTV VMA Video Vanguard in 2014.

      Kanye will be honored with it this year.

      Nicki still claims MTV is racist. -MusicNews_Shade

      • Nicki is queen August 27, 2015

        Beyoncé already said white people dont look at her has a black artist not everyone is f*cking Beyoncé

      • S****** Blonde August 28, 2015

        @Nicki is queen
        So we don’t look at Beyoncè as a black artist….Lol, did she really say that?….All i know is that for me a light skinned black and a dark skinned black are the same, Beyoncè is as black as Lupita Nyongo for me, same race, different tones.

  21. Chapel August 27, 2015

    Miley’s statement makes her look just as ignorant as Nicki lol

  22. Nicki is queen August 27, 2015

    Half you guys don’t like Nicki period what’s the point of arguing with you. Y’all side with anybody against nicki. y’all fake hate her so bad. That’s how I know y’all dumb siding with the b*tch who had a post on Instagram about blacklivesmatter but caption it alllivesmatter Miley opinion is cancelled period she is the one using black culture as props for her music but keep praising her that’s white feminists for you.

  23. SMH August 27, 2015

    Bottom line, white folks need to stfu about black discrimination issues. Especially white skan.ks that steal from black culture for their own benefit. Miley, put whatever coc.k you’ve been sucking on back in your mouth and have several stadiums full of seats.

  24. SMH August 27, 2015

    …and wth would this cumbucket know about ‘respect’? Lol

  25. Oscar August 27, 2015

    I mean it’s true…

  26. NickisHalloweenCostume2013 August 27, 2015

    some of y’all are so stupid, don’t understand that Beyonce’s just the token black woman of the entertainment industry? they just hand her everything so that black people can get off of their backs and they don’t have to actually look for or acknowledge other black artists

  27. UR August 27, 2015

    So, according to Miley, Nicki should have expressed her displeasure towards this year’s VMAs with ‘love’ instead of ‘anger’. That’s cute. If I were to accuse people of racism, it’d definitely not come with a sprinkle of ‘love’ on top. That’d just feel ridiculous.

  28. #JACKIE August 27, 2015

    Nicki is a w**** and has been annoying all year. F*** that h**.

  29. bb August 27, 2015

    it amazes me that people don’t get that Nicki was talkng about Iggy beng nominated last yr and not Taylor.
    Ofcourse Miley will deny racism bc she is southern….
    Nicki should have just come out and said Iggy’s name.

    • OMG Logic!!! August 27, 2015

      It amazes me that there are people as dumb as you around. Nicki was throwing a tantrum because she wasn’t nominated. END. OF. STORY. Dismissed.

  30. WE FOUND RIHANNA August 27, 2015

    Beyoncé being nominated doesn’t mean that MTV or the VMA’s isn’t racist. Beyonce is the token black artist of the industry, she get and been getting nominated off her name alone and sometimes 2-3 times in one category. Nicki’s main point that I agree with is if motherfuckin Taylor or Miley would’ve wrote, performed, & filmed a video for Anaconda it would’ve been nominated. How does Wrecking Ball & Bad Blood both break VEVO record along with Anaconda and the black artist who broke it as well don’t get nominated regardless of how it sounded, the VMA’s are for videos & its impact on pop culture.

  31. deon August 27, 2015

    Get that h** Miley, disrespecting Lil Kim ass trick!!! Copy Cat ass!!

  32. unfortunately no August 28, 2015

    You lot are embarrassing. How can you even cosign what Miley is saying. How can you actually sit there and read about a white woman telling a black woman how she should talk about and react to racism lmao and you sit there agreeing like a dumb nodding dog.

    Miley is so patronising in this interview and you know it’s only coming from the place where she is still holding on to the fact that she was called out about her own cultural appropriation a few years ago. She never even really responded but wants to get loud about this? She can f*** off and read a book tbqh.
