NICKI MINAJ MUST have been having a nostalgic look through her old photos over the weekend.

Because yesterday, she took to Instagram to share this snap taken on the red carpet of the VMAs last August:

Standing in front of the MTV logo, Nicki’s hand is placed on the three-lined blue section that reads “Video Music Awards.”

The interesting thing about this otherwise unassuming photo is that it looks like Nicki has taken up a new job doing the letters and numbers on Channel 4′s Countdown.

And the internet has absolutely noticed the similarity over the last 24 hours, and gone to town on it:

“Vowel please Nicki”

Whoops!

We couldn't find this Tweet

The combination of the hand placement and the blue and white logo has people doing double takes

Whoops!

We couldn't find this Tweet

It’s a brave new direction for the usually strait-laced show

We’re OK with it.

Vowels/consonants… Nicki does them all

If this meme ever found its way back to Nicki, someone would have a lot of explaining on their hands.

We’ll take two from the top and four small numbers btw.
