Nicki Minaj Twerks In "Anaconda" Music Video
“Anaconda” – a new take on Sir Mix-A-Lot’s legendary “Baby Got Back” – is all about showcasing Minaj’s butt, as evidenced by the single’s much talked about cover art. And the music video, which was released on Wednesday, Aug. 20, has wracked up over 21 million views in less than two days.

Minaj and an array of female dancers twerk throughout the video and show off their butts – sometimes wearing clothes that have ‘BUTT’ on them in large lettering – in a jungle setting. When Minaj isn’t flexing her behind for the camera, she’s playing suggestively with bananas or giving her frequent collaborator, Drake, a lap dance. In a Twitter Q&A with fans, Minaj admitted that the lapdance was completely choreographed, and was performed drunk.
