i see your points but you're assuming nicki has no choice/is forced to be half naked in the video when in reality she has full control over her image
what you're doing is policing what a woman should/shouldn't do under the umbrella of saying she shouldn't be objectified, which is admirable but misguided and anti-feminist
nicki's a grown woman, and if she wants to be sexual in a song about sex, then she will be. selling sex is part of the entertainment industry and she knows this and takes advantage of it.
people watching may objectify her body, but she herself being in lingerie and doing her verse isn't objectification.
there's half naked men AND women in the video, btw
