Nicki Minaj throws shade at VMAs, Taylor Swift.

It's that time of year again, when MTV rewards artists that appeal to the younger demographic. Oversexed, synthesized artists are up for awards, and those whose 15 minutes of fame are over, act all butthurt when they are not nominated for the coveted Video of the Year award.
Such is the case for Nicki Minaj, who took to Twitter to call out the VMAs on their bullsh*t:
"If I was a different "kind" of artist, Anaconda would be nominated for best choreo and vid of the year as well. Ellen did her own anaconda video and did the #choreo lol. Remember her doing that kick 😩. Even mtv did a post on the choreo @MTV remember? 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? If your video celebrates women with very slim bodies, you will be nominated for vid of the year."
Oh how the mighty have fallen.

My Two Cents:

If Nicki Minaj wasn't nominated for the coveted trophy, it's because her music is appalling. You can't even call what she does 'music.' It's more like she's talking in a bratty voice while dry-humping the floor or the back up dancers.

What has happened to music? True artists put out music because they love it. They don't keep up with the trends. They do their own thing. This is why I have nothing but respect for indie artists. They love music. They believe in their lyrics. They couldn't give two sh*ts about pleasing the music suits.
As for Nicki Minaj's "Anaconda" video, I watched it. It was absolutely horrific. It was 3 minutes of my life that I will never get back, and for the life of me, I cannot understand why people like that song.
As for body-shaming those that are thinner than you, Nicki, you need to grow up. You weren't nominated because you are OVER. People are sick of your voice and your attitude. You are nothing but a brat.

That's all I have to say about that. Let me know your thoughts in the comments below.

The tiny home movement has been sweeping the country for the past several years. People yearn for the simplicity of living in a tiny home, and with the way the economy is, it is no wonder the movement has grown so immensely. When it comes to tiny homes, you have the mobile tiny homes, where you can take your home anywhere you want to go. You have Yurts, which are incredible tiny homes to put down your roots in. One type of tiny home that is growing in popularity is a Bodega home. The Bodega is a very nice tiny home. The thing that makes the Bodega different than other tiny homes is that it isn't mobile. So if you plan on living in a Bodega home, make sure you have land to build it on. Your Bodega may cost you anywhere from $15,000 to $25,000 to build. On some Bodega homes, you are able to expand the space for an extra bedroom or home office. Bodega homes can be as small as 65sq feet, and as large as 800sq feet.

We as viewers followed Chef Ramsay as he ventured from restaurant to restaurant trying to save the failing businesses and repair broken relationships. The series aired for 7 seasons before ending in 2014. Since Gordon Ramsay ended 'Kitchen Nightmares,' many fans wonder which restaurants have stood the test of time, and which ones did not. As of right now, the restaurant closure rate stands at a shocking 69%. The restaurants that are still in operation stands at 31%. Most of the restaurants featured earlier in the series have since closed.
