Usually when we talk about Nicki Minaj, we talk about booty. But today is a different day. Over the weekend Nicki Minaj shared a "revealing" selfie thanking her stylists for her beguiling new look: A short bob, big cat-eyes, and black bra, which you can barely make out because ZOMG, BOOBS. It's a wonder I noticed the hair and eyeliner at all, the way her girls are taking over.
And one can't help notice, since they are staring out at you so very plaintively ("Look at us! Look at us!"), there is a wee bit of something illicit peeking out as well. I think you know what I'm talking about.
We see about a centimeter of La Minaj's areolas. Which means we're in nipple territory. Which means a violation of Instagram's no-nipple policy. Does this mean we can go full-throttle with the breastfeeding selfies now, Instagram? Because LOOK: Nicki Minaj's nipples are showing.
To tell you the truth, there's actually not much to make a fuss over here. It turns out, those little slivers of pigment are not terribly exciting. If anything they highlight how boobs are so much MORE than nipples, you know? Why is that part of the breast even that big of a deal?
In fact, some sites are even blurring out the "offending" parts. Why? There's hardly anything to blur! Are we afraid Minaj's lady parts are going to burn people's retinas? Because if we're talking about Minaj, retinal damage by nipple exposure is the LEAST of our concerns.
I'm just saying. All this brouhaha over to nip or not to nip is silly. For all the flap we make over them, why don't nipples have magical powers? Why are they not making the wearers fly or bend steel? Why aren't they also naturally glittery? See what I mean? They're so very ordinary.
So you know what I say to Nicki Minaj's trending so-called "nip slip"? Meh. Meh to you! Meh.
Do you think we make way too much out of seeing women's nipples?
