Nicki Minaj's Grammy performance of her new single, "Roman Holiday," drew cheers, but also some jeers, like those from the Catholic church.
The boisterous Young Money rapper pushed boundaries by showing up to the event in a red Versace nun's habit with a Pope impersonator. She then took things further with her performance, in which she proceeds to levitate over her dancers.
Catholic League president Bill Donohue slammed Minaj's performance, saying "Perhaps the most vulgar part was the sexual statement that showed a scantily clad female dancer stretching backwards while an altar boy knelt between her legs in prayer. None of this was by accident, and all of it was approved by the Recording Academy, which puts on the Grammys. Whether Minaj is possessed is surely an open question, but what is not in doubt is the irresponsibility of the Recording Academy. Never would they allow an artist to insult Judaism or Islam."
