Beyonce may have walked away from the VMAs with the Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award and a 16-minute performance under her belt, but Nicki Minaj had a few career highs of her own. After delighting the audience with her performance of “Anaconda,” Minaj went on to join Ariana Grande and Jessie J for “Bang Bang,” and Usher for “She Came To Give It To You.”
The sentimental moment came after the show, though, in Minaj’s dressing room. “If Beyonce didn’t walk into your dressing room and give you a diamond ‘FLAWLESS’ necklace, then there’s no way you could be having a better week than me,” Minaj wrote. “Lol. Awwwww thank u QUEEN. ur just a precious gem. I could never thank you enough for your influence on powerful women all around the world. #WeFlawless.”
Earlier this month, in the middle of the night, Beyonce and Minaj dropped a remix to “Flawless,” which lit up the Internet. We flawless, indeed.
