Last week Nicki Minaj was honored by Maddame Tussad’s wax museum with her very own wax figure that paid tribute to her hit song ‘Anaconda.’ Nicki was thrilled by acknowledgement of the museum and called the figure ‘iconic.’ The figure has been loved all around by fans and admirers of the rap queen, except for one, fellow rapper Azealia Banks. This doesn’t come as much of a shock as Banks seems to have criticism for everything and everyone these days.
Hit the jump for more.
Nicki Minaj’s wax figure is like a scene straight out of her ‘Anaconda’ video. The jungle themed exhibit features Nicki down on all fours with her famous booty up in the air. This caught the attention of Azealia Banks who had quite a few things to say about it.
Choosing her favorite platform of twitter, Banks went on a rant saying, “Wow, they finally give nicki minaj a wax figure and it’s a statue of her bent over on all fours…… White people yo….” she continued, “As much as that woman has accomplished, they had to put her on all fours… Why not standing up with a mic in her hand ???”
Banks continued her rant saying that if she were Nicki she would have demanded that the figure be re-done and claiming the museum “shaded” Minaj. Banks went on to compare Nicki Minaj to Martha Stewart. She said, “Martha Stewart’s most iconic moment was when she went to jail but they didn’t put her wax figure in a jail uniform… Come on y’all..”
The outspoken rapper ended her rant saying, “But if u like it I love it.”
Do you think Azealia Banks has a point about Nicki’s figure or is she reading too deep into it? Sound off in the comments. See the full twitter rant in the gallery.
