Ariana Grande and Nicki Minaj's 'Side to Side' video makes gyms seem fun
Watch Next

If Ariana Grande wrote a song called "Side to Side" as an excuse to whip her ponytail back and forth, that's okay.

There's plenty of that in the new video, co-starring Nicki Minaj, at the combination gym and club of your nightmares and/or fantasies, just like their VMA performance. Ariana Grande just really hates childhood obesity!

They're joined by a bunch of buff, breathing mannequins, naturally, and the sauna apparently makes you shimmer, not sweat. Perfect.
