As much as I HATE the Alejandro video, the imagery was not used so tastelessly. It was a) a tribute to Cabaret b) supposed to convey a message about LGBT equality (don't forget that LGBT people were also persecuted in Nazi Germany). She continued this with the pink triangle in BTW.
Nicki is using it as a symbol of power. Whether you're offended or not (I'm not personally offended by it since I'm very far removed from the issue), it's obviously very tasteless and just plain dumb to depict herself that way.
