Rihanna and Nicki Minaj reportedly completed the video for “Fly” since January of this year. For some reason or another, the video release was delayed. Nicki at one point stated that both she and Rihanna had a lot of active singles and she didn’t want Fly to get lost in the fray. Of course Rihanna was releasing single after single from her LOUD album and Nicki’s “Super Bass” video was going viral thanks in part to Selena Gomez and Taylor Swift. Naturally, a video was completed and released for Super Bass – while Fly waited patiently. But no worries, now that both ladies have simmered down – Fly can soar and get all the attention.
While Rihanna vacations in St. Tropez with her girlfriends(see photos below) Nicki is wrapping up her tour with Britney Spears. No word if Rihanna will return in time to attend the MTV VMAs but the Fly will premiere nonetheless during the pre-show of Sunday night’s MTV VMAs.
