Nicki Minaj throws down with Miley Cyrus on MTV VMAs stage: "This bitch had a lot to say about me"

Nicki Minaj throws down with Miley Cyrus on MTV VMAs stage: "This bitch had a lot to say about me"


Shade thrown! The MTV Video Music Awards took an awkward turn tonight whenNicki Minaj confronted Miley Cyrus on stage about some recent controversial comments.

While accepting her Best Hip-Hop Video award for 'Anaconda', Minaj called out Miley for publicly condemning her anger at being shut out of the Video of the Year category this year.

"Now back to this bitch that had a lot to say about me the other day in the press - Miley, what's good?" Minaj quipped as she ended her speech.

"We all do interviews, and we all know how they can be manipulated," Miley responded when she returned to the stage, adding: "Congratu-f**king-lations, Nicki."

As Miley attempted to move the ceremony along, the camera briefly cut back to Nicki mockingly pointing at the night's host.

The roots of their conflict date back to Taylor taking issue with Nicki seemingly singling out her 'Bad Blood' video for getting a nomination, while her own 'Anaconda' was snubbed.

The duo soon made up after speaking about their disagreement over the phone, only for Miley to dredge up the controversy in an interview last week.

"What I read sounded very Nicki Minaj, which, if you know Nicki Minaj is not too kind. It's not very polite," Miley told The New York Times.

"People forget that the choices that they make and how they treat people in life affect you in a really big way. If you do things with an open heart and you come at things with love, you would be heard and I would respect your statement. But I don't respect your statement because of the anger that came with it.

"And it's not anger like, 'Guys, I'm frustrated about some things that are a bigger issue'. You made it about you. Not to sound like a bitch, but that's like, 'Eh, I didn't get my VMA'..."

The on-stage row at tonight's MTV VMAs occurred literally minutes after Nicki and Taylor officially buried their feud by opening the ceremony together.

Miley Cyrus is hosting the 2015 MTV Video Music Awards tonight (August 30) from the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles.
