It refers to the gutius maximus (ass to the rest of you) of a young woman as booty.

one can only use the term 'booty' when describing a female?

we all got 'em.

p.s.
I think the point of the song went over your head (not being ashamed of being 'big', tho if shes 'big' im a pink elephant)...

Auto-tune is the bane of the music industry. It use to be fun for a short segment in a song but now entire songs are auto-tuned. Maybe this girl can sing or maybe she sounds like a howling banshee when she sings but we will never know because her voice was all auto-tuned to death.

I would say 75% or more of videos posted to DU give me this message. I am in the USA. Kinda strange imo...

I'll try to find the video somewhere else. If I do I'll edit and comment on it.

Strange, huh? I wonder if my ISP is doing some weird stuff with their routing. I'll have to look into it more...

You should contact them about that. Tell them all VEVO videos are blocked.
