How scary does Nicki Minaj look in this video? I still don’t know about this song though; it almost seems like an acknowledgment of the Pussycat Dolls Don’t Cha. Just not as good obviously. Plus, I’m concerned about Battle of the Sexes? It’s not like Theatre of the Mind or Release Therapy didn’t have bad songs on it but have you seen that album cover? Somebody call a publicist.
