Last night at midnight exactly Nicki Minaj released the somewhat highly anticipated (depends on who you're asking) music video for her single, "Anaconda." If you feel like you've heard that song before, it's because she sampled the famous "My anaconda don't want none unless you got buns hun." from Sir Mix-A-Lots song, "I Like Big Butts." The video is full of butts. So many butts. The video has been trending on twitter since it's debut and already has over 4 million views on youtube alone. If you dare watch it (seriously NOT safe for work), beware. But what might be even worse are the tweets celebrating the video for...well, we're not really sure what for.
Warning: these tweets aren't safe for brains.
Maybe this guy's being sarcastic.
After releasing #AnacondaVideoOnVevo, Nicki Minaj is the #1 role model to little girls and feminists everywhere! #datassthough

Pretty sure the Ice Bucket Challenge isn't meant for this.
I may have to go do the ice bucket challenge just to cool down after watching it. #AnacondaVideoOnVevo

Now cleanse your soul and "Shake if Off" with Taylor Swift's new music video.
