Nicki Minaj is known for her killer curves and don't-mess-with-me attitude to boot.
But the amply curvy woman responsible for one of this summer's hottest tracks - the bootylicious Anaconda - seemingly doesn't see herself quite the same way everyone else does.
'I consider myself a skinny girl,' she tells Billboard magazine as she graces the cover looking every inch the beautifully curvaceous star that she is.
The remark about her own figure comes as she addresses the criticism Anaconda faced, with plenty of haters panning it for objectifying women with sizeable derrières and degrading those who don't.
'Everything we see that's labeled as beautiful is very skinny,' she explains. 'In the song, I kind of say, "F*** them skinny girls." But it's all love. I consider myself a skinny girl.'
She continues: 'I went overboard with the video to show that I'm not going to hide. And those big-booty dancers I have, they're not going to hide. Black girls should feel sexy, powerful and important too.'
While the accompanying video may not have been a hit with everyone, the song itself sure was, landing the 31-year-old her biggest hit to date.
