Although "Anaconda" has garnered two amazing nominations, the video truly deserves a Video of the Year nomination if you ask me. While she was snubbed by the VMAs this year for the Video of the Year nomination (and took to Twitter to speak out about it), "Anaconda" is still nominated for Best Video of the Year and Best Hip Hop Video.Īs Minaj herself pointed out, "Anaconda" literally broke world records, and the lack of acknowledgement for a video that celebrates black female bodies is arguably an act of racial prejudice. In fact, Nicki Minaj is arguably one of the most body positive celebrities of the moment. Although many were quick to critique Nicki Minaj's "Anaconda" music video for skinny shaming, I personally believe it is the most body positive music video nominated at the 2015 Video Music Awards.
