When the masses want manicure inspiration, they go straight to Saweetie’s Instagram feed. The rapper is not shy in the nail-art department, often opting for out-there designs including lava lamp graphics, 3D gummy bear charms, and long, sharp talon nail shapes. She’s gone for the latter once again with her latest manicure, a stiletto-shaped set in an orchid pink that’s covered in cherry-shaped gems with a few other red gems trailing down the (very, very long) length of each nail.
On January 30, the rapper posted a set of mirror selfies showing off the manicure, plus a close-up captioned, “new grabbaz.” Upon seeing it, Saweetie’s fans couldn’t tell if they were thrilled or scared or somewhere in-between — it was a mixed reaction, to say the least. “Them nails are da bomb I know dats right,” one commenter wrote on Instagram. “Those are some badass nails,” wrote another. “Saweetie always gone EAT ON THE NAILS!!!” another said.
A slew of heart, fire, and cherry emojis followed throughout her comments, but others were quick to point out how difficult it must be to… um, grab, with a set as long and sharp as hers. “Those are very long saweetie, can you do ANYTHING with those grabberzz???” one user asked. “Them might hurt bae,” another said. Someone even went so far as to call her “The Claw” in reference to that iconic scene from Toy Story.
