Well, the self titled “UK Baddie” has finally arrived with her debut song Boyz. Featuring the antivaxxer that “went to school with Marg-ret Thatch-or” herself, Nicki Minaj. And despite frequent allegations of blackfishing over the last year, Jesy Nelson has stuck to her guns and released her solo single and video to a largely critical response. Of course, when big pop moments like this happen, Twitter will always explode into a cacophony of opinion. Here are some of the best Twitter reactions to Boyz, the debut solo single and music video by notorious bad boy dater Jesy Nelson.

1. Where are the bad boys you speak of in your love life please Jesy?
