Nicki Minaj's twerking video backstage at Drake’s gig

The Trinidadian rapper was waiting backstage at a Drake gig in Paris while his hit One Dance was playing – and she decided to do a bit of whining and twerking.

But while the 34-year-old was proud of her moves and her ‘stink face’, her fans were less kind about her ability to do these ‘Jamaican’ movies.

Nicki captioned the video: ‘All Jamaican girls used to make that stink face when they whining in the club.

‘When u bout to go on stage to the most incredible Paris audience of all time. Wow #NickiInPARIS #BoyMeetsWorldTour [sic].’

But bitchy fans weren’t impressed, with one writing: ‘Rihanna should teach your Yankee a** how to whine.’

‘All that a** and can’t whine lol’, added another, while a third snidely told her: ‘Give it up you can’t twerk boo,’ before a fourth wrote: ‘But Jamaican Girls Can Actually DANCE  She Can’t Dance For SHIT  .’

She was also totally off with the beat, according to another unimpressed Instagrammer, who wrote: ‘Like…what beat is she hearing? Lol how is she from Trinidad and swagger jack all the jamaicans but still dances off beat?’

The analysis of Nicki’s dancing continued, with one fan lengthily commenting: ‘She barely can pop that one side. She can only twerk in the front where we can’t see her ass cause she knows she’s stiff & her fake ass doesn’t shake lol she should’ve went to dr. Miami .’

And another critic on Twitter simply asked her to ‘stop’.

Lol someone please stop nicki Minaj from twerking. Wth is THAT

But one fan was clearly blown away by her moves – and, well, her – posting: ‘How does she have time to do this? Shit Nicki get back to work n stop being naughty. Lol.’

No doubt this criticism will become more fuel for Nicki’s rap nemesis Remy Ma, who’s in the habit of writing diss tracks about the ‘dumb’ pint-sized superstar.
