Which Was Worse: Nicki Minaj’s Grammys “Blasphemy” Or M.I.A.’s Super Bowl Flip-Off?

In case you missed it, Nicki Minaj’s long-winded performance Sunday at the Grammys was an Exorcist-themed sh*t show. The song itself, “Roman’s Holiday,” probably won’t be a hit, but Nicki’s main goal was to provoke and instigate. Which she did very well.

She even got the predictably out-of-touch Catholic League to wonder, “Is Nicki Minaj Possessed?”Now, Jebus knows we’re no fans of the Catholic Church but Nicki’s attempt to use Catholic imagery to be edgy has been done before, and better, by her Super Bowl co-star Madonna. Ms. Minaj should’ve stuck to what she does best: giving us buttloads of freaky-deeky sex appeal.

But do its transgressions surpass M.I.A.’s Super Bowl flip-off to America (below)? That move was criticized by both Nicki, who said  she was “disappointed,” and Madge, who called the move childish and “irrelevant.”

Sp, which stunt was the dumber publicity ploy? Give us your opinion (and not the finger, please) in the comments!
