Nicki Minaj Shoots 'Pound the Alarm' Video in Trinidad

Nicki Minaj spent her 4th of July back home in Trinidad shooting the video for “Pound the Alarm,” the new single off her sophomore album Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded. The Young Money diva, who announced Tyga as one of the supporting acts for her European arena tour in the fall, received a hero’s welcome as she paraded through the streets on a float. The blonde bombshell showed off her curves in a red bikini and feathery costume in the carnival-themed clip.

“Just wrapped an amazing video on an amazing island. #Trinidad #poundthealarm,” tweeted Nicki. “The heat in Trinidad is on another level. O-o The girls in the vid are drop dead gorgeous & I’m not just saying it cuz I’m from here!”
