Nicki Minaj didn鈥檛 win any awards at Sunday鈥檚 Grammy awards, but her odd performance is sure to garner some second-day analysis today, especially among Catholics.

聽

Minaj, who was nominated for Best New Artist, came to the red carpet with a man dressed as a pope. She later performed her song 鈥楻oman Holiday,鈥� with heavy references to the Catholic Church throughout it. The song started with her in a confessional screeching to a priest. There were scenes from an exorcism and dancers around her gyrating in religious robes.

聽

She levitated at one point while the dancers formed into a hooded choir and sang a few lines from the Christmas song 鈥淥 Come All Ye Faithful.鈥澛�
