Hey DanceOn, it's Kid Fury, here to talk to you about the
latest Nicki Minaj video, "Starships." Now, after making
her fans wait for however many months, which is probably a
lot longer in Barbie years, Nicki finally dropped off the
video for her pretty successful single,
"Starships."
Not entirely sure where she was going with it.
I personally felt like she was channeling a little bit of
Sailor Moon mixed with Jem and the Holograms and a dash of
Power Rangers in space.
So some starship drops Nicki off on the
beaches of Hawaii somewhere.
Because, you know, starships don't fly through the ghetto.
So I don't know how she gets to the trap when she be's
there, but that's not the point.
She's sporting a very tight, very revealing pink bikini.
And she's got the lace front glued on tight.
And she just rolling around in the water and the sand being
sexy and things of that nature.
Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson is in the video.
Well, it's probably like five guys that look like The Rock
but, regardless, a bunch of beefy Hawaiian guys beating on
their chests, they're all sweaty, wearing
g-strings and stuff.
So that was interesting.
Of course, there's lots of different bright colors and
dancers jumping through splashes of Kool-Aid,
chocolate milk, I don't know what--
paint-- what that stuff is.
There's also a strange metallic box that Nicki sits
on top of that a lot of silly people are probably going to
affiliate with the Illuminati so they can continue this
rumor that Nicki Minaj eats children.
I don't know.
Dance-wise I didn't really catch that much choreography.
There was a little bit of hula dancing in the end and back
flips and crawling around in dirt.
Nicki mostly did a few jigs.
Stuff like--
Overall it's a cute video.
I think the focus here was mostly Nicki's butt.
It really didn't go in the direction I expected it to.
If the song went, (SINGING) butt cheeks
were meant to grind.
Green wigs are down my spine.
Then it would have mad a little bit more sense to me.
Because Nicki's got a whole lot of
packin' in the back end.
And she's definitely showing it off in this video.
Anyway, cute video Nicki.
Now jump out your hoopty, hoopty, hoop
and go pay your rent.
With love.
