The nominees for the MTV Video Music Awards were announced yesterday. A lot of artists were happy with their nominations. But one artist felt that she was snubbed by the awards.
Nicki Minaj took to twitter to vent her anger at not being nominated for video of the year for her single Anaconda.
If I was a different "kind" of artist, Anaconda would be nominated for best choreo and vid of the year as well. 😊😊😊

U couldn't go on social media w/o seeing ppl doing the cover art, choreo, outfits for Halloween...an impact like that & no VOTY nomination?

As the tweets continued, she seemed to be targeting a particular artist:
When the "other" girls drop a video that breaks records and impacts culture they get that nomination. 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊

After a while, Taylor Swift seemed to have enough of the twiiter targeting and responded to Nicki.
@NICKIMINAJ I've done nothing but love & support you. It's unlike you to pit women against each other. Maybe one of the men took your slot..

Huh? U must not be reading my tweets. Didn't say a word about u. I love u just as much. But u should speak on this. @taylorswift13

@NICKIMINAJ If I win, please come up with me!! You're invited to any stage I'm ever on.

It seems there might be some trouble in music circles just from the nominations. I wonder what will actually happen at the VMAs!
