Reports are streaming in that a 6-foot-long anaconda that was a part of Nicki Minaj's upcoming MTV VMA performance set, has attacked one of the rapper's backup dancers. 

While rehearsing her hit "Anaconda" for the upcoming award show, the snake bit a female dancer in plain view of everyone in attendance. 

Although anacondas are non-venomous their fangs often transmit bacteria that can lead to infection. 

The snake was safely removed from the stage, but there's no word if the snakes will be totally taken out of Nicki's set.
