It all started yesterday when the MTV Video Music Award Nominations were released. Of course, Twitter had a lot to say about these, with #VMA leading as a trending topic. But soon joining in the trending topics were more specific artists.... namely #TaylorSwift and #NickiMinaj.
Nicki Minaj vented on Twitter after her biggest hit "Anaconda" wasn't nominated for Video Of The Year. The video, which received 19.6 million clicks in its first 24 hours, set a music video record at the time. So, Minaj had a point when she thought she was snubbed. She tweeted:

What do you think of the debate? Are you #TeamNicki or #TeamTaylor?
