Nicki Minaj posed with a couple of seriously cute puppies in the November issue of GQ magazine, in which she talked about the meaning behind her "Anaconda" music video.

“I don’t know what there is to really talk about. I’m being serious. I just see the video as being a normal video. 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 said.

The rapper explained that her 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.”

Then she admitted that the video is also about power and control.

“I’m chopping up the banana. Did you realize that? At first I’m being sexual with the banana, and then it’s like, ‘Ha-ha, no.’ ” she said.

When asked how the #Drake scene immediately follows the kitchen scene, she said:

“Yeah, that was important for us to show in the kitchen scene, because 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.”

The “Bang Bang” singer also opened up about changing her image.

“I always thought that by the time I put out a third album, I would want to come back to natural hair and natural makeup," she said. "I thought, I will shock the world again and just be more toned down. I thought that would be more shocking than to keep on doing exactly what they had already seen.”
