Anacondas in KOREA??

Yeah, I know it's probably common knowledge that Anacondas are not found in Korea...
But have you seen this react video of Korean girls reacting to Nicki Minaj's Anaconda Music Video?

I guess as a general disclaimer I should include this:




The first thing I thought when I found out this video existed, was: "Whoa! They have Korean versions of '_______ react to ________'???"

If you know what I'm talking about then you probably know of The Fine Bros, which is where I usually see anyone reacting to anything.

I guess that shows my ignorance on my part, but still you gotta admit, even if the translations might've been a bit off (or according to this video's reddit page, a lot off) it was still very entertaining to watch.

I think that the responses that the girls give in the video are interesting, given the way that I see Korea as being a very conservative country when it comes to practically everything, especially "pop culture".

In the music videos that I've seen, (female) Korean idols in general don't show nearly as much skin or do nearly as provocative of a dance as Minaj does in Anaconda.

I could even list a few here:
Hyuna, even though I listed her, doesn't really fit into this list, because Red is about as close (in my opinion) as what you are going to get, if you wanted to make a music video that crosses over Nicki Minaj, Beyonce, J-lo, and even (the ever-so-trashy) Miley Cyrus.

At the same time, even though she's all about portraying herself as a (and I quote) "sex kitten," (and plus if you've ever seen her in the subgroup Trouble Maker, then you would totally understand what that's about) I think that it's really funny to see a really skinny Asian girl poppin' and droppin' like she got booty for days. (It's too bad that her booty is "flat and shapeless," unlike some people...)
Someone's got booty for days
That's all I really wanted to say about this topic, but I just wanted to bring it to your attention, because I found this interesting. And also because it's funny to see really innocent-looking Korean girls being portrayed as having dirty sailor mouths. :-))

On a completely related note

I really wanted to include this video as soon as I saw it, so here it is:

Make sure to check out more of BotanicSage's videos on his channel as well, because there are some  pretty awesome mixes and mashups over there!
Also, while researching for this post I happened upon this gem as well, which is also related!

And plus this is the reason why when I mentioned The Fine Bros, I didn't link it to anywhere as to not ruin the surprise lol.

SURPRISE!!

Here the links to the original videos though:

Side Note: When it comes to booty, as a girl who has gotten countless compliments from girls and boys alike about my beyonce-esque bottom, I find it offensive when people say: "Nicki Minaj's butt is impossible/not real/too big...etc." I mean, I bet if you were able to walk around in Newark, you'd be finding girls with booties much bigger than Nicki's, let alone Beyonce's or even Iggy Azalea's butt. Well that's the end of my mini-rant. Have a nice day and may the booty be with you.


I found this gif while listening to this song btw...

2014: In Retrospect - All About that Booty and then some...

Ahhh... The year of 2014.

 One could say that this year was the year of the booty. I'm only doing this because one of my friends suggested that I do an end-of-the-year-post on perhaps the BIGGEST year in the history of the universe. (If by big you mean the sizes of the booties that we've seen thus far)

The list could go on and on about all of the butts that we've seen twerking or sang about throughout the year.

Which would include those of:

Nicki Minaj (lol jk jk... I really meant this)

Jennifer Lopez (Of course can't forget about Iggy Azalea, I mean have you seen her butt? For a white girl she has a lot of insured assets ;) )

Meghan Trainor

Kim Kardashian (who can forget about how she almost broke the internet?? ~ both links might be considered NSFW)

And of course the honorable mentions of:

Jason Derulo

Taylor Swift


"Excuse me, pardon me, sorry getting through... Oh wow, why the moon is very full tonight!"

Today's artists with their coveted assets are kind of like goldfish, because they literally eat where they... well, you get the idea...

But, If you're like me besides, looking forward to the end of the year to watch the end-of-the-year-specials, like Dick Clark's Rockin' New Year's Eve (With Ryan Seacrest), you look forward to making your resolutions because we all try so hard to leave all the bad stuff that we did the previous year, in lieu of the new year that's coming (Even if we're probably all going to break our New Year's resolutions a couple of days after we make them). So, at this year's crossroads between 2014 and 2015, what will your New Year's resolutions be?

Mine without a doubt is to remain as happy as I always am, despite the ups and downs that I had encountered this year,

And it's also to get more sleep,

And to finally realize my dream of learning some new languages.

Here are the highlights of my year:

I started a blog!

I made it halfway, halfway through College!

I also got a new mascot!

She's a girl... by the way
And there's also this:

The best gift of all time (and 2014) from the best friend ever
I also hope to empower others in the future through the power of self-expression and ultimately booty-shaking :P (okay so maybe not so much the booty shaking, even if I do possess some assets of my own *wink, wink*)

I also hope to have more highlights next year...

I was going to write an entire post about how this year is undoubtedly going to go down in history (and in infamy) as the year that was ultimately taken over by one of the most weirdly coveted and hated body parts perhaps in the universe. But, if you're like me, then besides the sea of booties, you just want to enjoy the end of this year and welcome the new one like every other year.

So Happy New Year! For Next year and every other year that there is to come!

I'll leave you with some of the most inspiring videos of 2014, but always remember that we all have bright futures behind us.

Here's a look at 2014 on Google

Happy New Year Everybody

P.S: Adding Beyonce to the list of booties would be overkill, because with her every year is the year of the booty

P.P.S: Another Highlight to my year was seeing Carlton do the Carlton! But of course even he is sad to see this year go...
