VOTE: Who Won The Nicki Minaj vs Taylor Swift Fight?

Two of our favs are fighting and we need help deciding who won.
Award show season always seems to bring out the worst and weirdest in people. For the last few years, race and gender have been the topics of discussion any time there has been a perceived snub from "the industry".
Typically, artists stay silent on these issues (don't bite the hand that feeds and all that) but Nicki broke that cardinal rule when she started going in on MTV, Ryan Seacrest (an actual friend of hers) and every other cog in the machine.
Last night, rapper Nicki Minaj was making some apt commentary about how predictable MTV is.
If your video celebrates women with very slim bodies, you will be nominated for vid of the year

And then Taylor jumped in.
@NICKIMINAJ I've done nothing but love & support you. It's unlike you to pit women against each other. Maybe one of the men took your slot..

We love when Taylor stands up for herself but perhaps she was being overly sensitive here. Nobody @'d her.
So then Nicki responded to Taylor's insertion.
@taylorswift13 I'm still confused as to why u just tweeted me when I made it abundantly clear... pic.twitter.com/A5kJyi6fQC

I'm so glad u guys get to see how this stuff works. Taylor took her music off spotify and was applauded. We launched Tidal & were dragged.

Don't get ahead of yourself, TIDAL was still wack, Nicki.
Afterwards, Taylor responded in a kind of 'love thy enemies' way.
@NICKIMINAJ If I win, please come up with me!! You're invited to any stage I'm ever on.

Both sides are tricky. With as much influence as Taylor seems to have over the industry, should she use her power to uplift her fellow artists like Nicki instead of making Nicki's commentary about her? Or was Nicki being shady and subtweeting Taylor?
