Leaning against the rail of the balcony she was on, she gyrated her hips and mouthed to her verse on the Katy Perry song Swish Swish in an Instagram video.

The rapper’s outfit for the Instagram photos and video also featured a glinting pair of what tiny black high-waisted shorts that appeared to have been made out of leather.

A glistening pair of black stiletto boots stretched up past the Port Of Spain native’s knees, and for the photos – but not the video – she was sitting on a sleek white chair.

One of the photos saw her with her legs crossed as she gazed at something off-screen, the other with her legs spread apart as she stared directly at the camera.

The photo that’s shown Nicki legs akimbo was captioned: ‘Half pink /Half blonde all Summer ’17,’ and alongside the other one, she’s written: ‘Plz say da Barbie®’.

She’s captioned the video: ‘#SwishSwish,’ with a shades-wearing emoji sticking its tongue out before: ‘half pink half blonde all Summer 17’ and an emoji of a tongue.

Having dropped on May 19, Swish Swish had served as the third single off of Katy’s fifth and latest studio album Witness, which she released in its entirety on June
