Last night while accepting the award for Best Hip-Hop Video at the MTV Video Music Awards, Nicki Minaj challenged the show’s host Miley Cyrus about the comments she made in an interview with The New York Times last week.
Miley was asked about Minaj’s Twitter spat with Taylor Swift in July over this year’s crop of nominees. “What I read sounded very Nicki Minaj, which, if you know Nicki Minaj is not too kind.”
Miley was quoted as saying; “It’s not very polite. I think there’s a way you speak to people with openness and love. You don’t have to start this pop star against pop star war… I know you can make it seem like, Oh I just don’t understand because I’m a white pop star. I know the statistics. I know what’s going on in the world. But to be honest, I don’t think MTV did that on purpose.”
Nicki asked her, “What’s good?” Miley responded to Nicki by blaming the media for twisting her words, we’re not sure if the whole situation was choreographed but it certainly was entertaining TV. Let’s be honest Nicki Minaj is a total badass and we would not want to be up against her! One of our highlights of the entire situation was Rebel Wilson, how funny is she in the back ground as Nicki’s hype woman?!
