Nicki Minaj is a goddess on the cover of the November issue of GQ Magazine. Speaking to the magazine, Nicki admitted that “Anaconda” video is about female power and control;
“I think the video is about what girls do. Girls love being with other girls, and when you go back to us being younger, we would have slumber parties and we’d be dancing with our friends. 'She' - Nicki’s character in the video - “is just talking about two guys that she dated in the past and what they’re good at and what they bought her and what they said to her. It’s just cheeky, like a funny story.”
“I’m chopping up the banana. Did you realize that? It’s always about the female taking back the power, and if you want to be flirty and funny that’s fine, but always keeping the power and the control in everything.”
