Nicki Minaj has a big … ego and Taylor Swift is not shaking this one off.
Despite picking up three MTV Video Music Awards nominations, the Queens-born rapper isn't happy about her bootylicious "Anaconda" video being snubbed from a couple of key categories.
"If I was a different 'kind' of artist, 'Anaconda' would be nominated for best choreo and vid of the year as well," she tweeted to her 19.6 million followers Tuesday shortly after MTV released this year's list of nominees.

'Anaconda' broke the Vevo record for most views with 19.6 million clicks in the first day of its release.

But it was her comment that "If your video celebrates women with very slim bodies, you will be nominated for vid of the year," that made Swift feel attacked.
The "Blank Space singer quickly responded, "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."
Minaj seemed to be confused by Swift's comments responding back "Huh? U must not be reading my tweets. Didn't say a word about u. But u should speak on this."
"I'm still confused as to why u just tweeted me when I made it abundantly clear...," she added.

"Ellen did her own anaconda video and did the #choreo lol," she added about Ellen DeGeneres parody. "Remember her doing the kick. Even mtv did a post on the choreo @MTV remember?"
Minja's rant continued, "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 nominations?"
