mimi is scared of nicki minaj?
she is scared of this:
this is what she told barbara walters on the view this morning…
“American Idol” judge Mariah Carey says multiple people heard fellow judge Nicki Minaj say, “If I had a gun, I would shoot the b***h” after launching acurse-filled rant at Carey during an “Idol” audition, Barbara Walters said on “The View” today after interviewing Carey.
Carey told Walters, who conducted the interview this morning before the show, that she “doesn’t feel comfortable emotionally” but will continue with the show and has hired extra security.
Carey, 42, told Walters the altercation between the judges began when they disagreed on a contestant’s audition Tuesday in Charlotte, N.C.
The judges had a meeting with producers Wednesday to discuss the altercation. After the meeting, Minaj told Carey, “I love you but we might fight again,” to which Carey responded, “No, we will not,” Walters said.
Minaj’s representatives did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Fellow judge Keith Urban said he tried to stay neutral on Tuesday during the altercation in Charlotte.
“I was the UN,” the country singer told “Extra” Wednesday at the New York Film Festival premiere of “Paperboy.”
Urban’s wife, Nicole Kidman, chimed in, calling him “Switzerland.”
Urban, who is new to the judging table this year along with Minaj and Carey, loves working with such passionate people, he said.
“I love it, I got to say,” he said. “I love working with passionate people. I love artists. Everyone just sort of expressing themselves. It’s a very alive and very invigorating work environment. A lot of passion.”
Carey’s husband, Nick Cannon, also gave his two-cents about the fight, which included Minaj, 29, calling Carey, “her f**king highness.” Cannon believes the fighting is detracting from what the show is really about.
“When you think about what the show is actually about and represents, I feel like it’s taking away from the quality of what ‘Idol’ is all about. This is about people accomplishing their dreams, experts guiding these young people to do what they’ve done,” Cannon told “Access Hollywood” Wednesday.
But Cannon stood by his wife, who is heard responding to Minaj in the video although it isn’t clear.
“My wife is the strongest and classiest woman that I’ve ever met. If you watch the video, she just maintains her composure. I don’t think she’s moved by the theatrics and pageantry of it all. She signed up to do a job to help young people, this is like a sidebar. I hope that’s not what this show becomes, about the cat fights,” he said.
“The show is solely about a singing competition. That’s why America loves these shows, they want to see people reach a certain goal or win, and then to make it about something it’s not, [it] kind of shows that the producers and the network are losing their foot a little bit.”
Carey was unfazed by the altercation with Minaj, Cannon said.
“She called me and we were talking about the kids. At the end of the day, she’s a mom and that’s my wife,” he said. “We got diapers to change and kids to raise.”
wow.

They should release tracks about it already
The things some people do to boost ratings.
Mariah is known for being a bitch but she is a legend and they will not drop her. Nicki can pack and get ready to go back on the road because those white folks are not going to put up with that.
This whole ordeal was stupid on both ends..
Nicki Minaj has indeed become the cancer because ultimately it boils down to the fact that Mariah is a singer and this is a singing comp…Nicki was unnecessary to begin with. If they wanted to add another judge it could’ve been someone who actually has standing like Lady Gaga, Rihanna, Katy Perry etc. to represent the pop aspect of music…..since Keith is Country and Mariah is R&B.
Actually Marian is pop son with a sprinkle of R&B. She has a great voice though. Stellar. A Gladys Knight or Chaka Khan or some other old school diva would have made a great addition. AI really needs gravitas. Bi
It seriously I think the she Minaj/Carey thing is publicity for a show in decline. That’s why they hired Side Show Bob…oops I mean Minaj.
