Following up her recent appearance in Yo Gotti’s "Rake It Up” video earlier this week, Nicki Minaj decides to make her return in front of the camera lens today, but this time in Katy Perry’s new video for “Swish Swish.”
Rather than getting provocative & showing off their “assets,” Katy decides to bring the title to life & deliver a basketball themed visual. The near 7-minute video takes on a cinematic feel with the “Sheeps” taking on the “Tigers” in what looks to be a celebrity basketball game with cameos coming from a wide array of people, including Molly Shannon, Terry Crews, Jenna Ushkowitz, and Gaten Materazo from Stranger Things, as well as NBA MVP Bill Walton and NFL commentator Rich Eisen. And if that’s not enough, there’s even appearances from Rob Gronkowski, Karl-Anthony Towns, & Joey Chestnut to give you an idea of how many people are actually in this star-studded clip. As for Nicki’s cameo, she can be seen rapping her respective verse center court with some back up dancers behind her.
The record itself can be found on Katy’s latest album Witness which droped back in June & debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 with 180k units in the first week. Check out the official video (above) and be sure to show your support on iTunes.
