It's one of the finer things in life.
collecting an award for a video you didn't direct vs. collecting a grammy for material you've claimed to write albeit never solo
I see the logic

Nicki Minaj sits at her vanity. She inserts her blue contacts and brushes her long, straight, platinum blonde wig. Her skin glows white with foundation. She adjusts her breast implants in her tank top and squeezes her butt implants into a pair of tight jeans.
Then she picks up her phone to tweet that she was snubbed by the VMAs because the media favors white-friendly images and supports negative body images.

THE FACT THAT I MIGHT CONSIDER CHANGING MY SIG for this

and in 48 hours won't buy nicki's anaconda song. Despite having close to 500M views, it sold 1.4M in the united states.
They won't buy her album enough for it to sell over 1.289M in the states despite releasing 7 songs and growing and won't go to see her on tour enough to get sellout crowds.
Yet Taylor doesn't have the "twitter/tumblr" backing and manages to get videos with 1B, multiplatinum sales for those videos, sold out shows and sales over 1M without releasing 7 songs.
Why are people even thinking Taylor lost this battle/war?
It's beyond me...
To me i see a set up.
Beyonce included in the VOTY so that someone couldn't cry racism and have a point.
Except she still cried racism (passively) no guts to do it actively.
taylor swiftly reminds her and others how Nicki has feuded with legends and up and comers females and then taunted her about a possible when and using her as a charity case to come join her.
How on earth did Taylor lose this EPIC shade?
