    Preview: Nicki Minaj Fires At Mariah Carey In ‘My Truth’ Special

    Written by TriniTrent | Filed under Mariah Carey,Nicki Minaj
    Nicki Minaj My Truth TheLavaLizard

    Nicki Minaj acts childish ‘Nicki Minaj: My Truth’.

    Ever since Nicki Minaj experienced a near nervous breakdown and verbally attacked Mariah Carey on the set of ‘American Idol’, she has been using the incident to attract attention to crumbling career. In fact, this preview of her ‘Nicki Minaj: My Truth’ provides a perfect example of her desperation.

    Set to air via E! on November 4th, ‘My Truth’ will force feed Minaj’s few fans with a heavy dose of propaganda as she promotes her upcoming ‘Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded – The Re-Up’. Despite failing to yield a hit, the set is still on track for release on November 19th.

    “Ain’t nobody gonna run me off that motherfuckin’ show, playboy,” Minaj declared in her message to Carey in ‘My Truth’. Ironically, nobody ran to stores to purchase copies of Minaj’s ‘Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded’, which has yet to sell 700K in the US since being released in April.

    Watch the preview of Minaj’s ‘My Truth’ below:

    Keys: mariah carey, nicki minaj, preview

    • bre

      I tried to like her, I really did. But now I’m just irritated with her. Madonna or Eminem was never this pressed with their feud with Mariah. Either Nicki was real hurt by whatever Mariah said/did, or she’s wringing this feud dry to help her get more sales for her Re-Up album. Everyone else moved on already, so why can’t she? She’s only making herself look more foolish (if that’s even possible).

      • objectively_speaking

        Took the words right out of my mouth..

      • ML

        Hm…Eminem threatened to release voicemails with Mariah on it.He threatened to release pics. He claimed that he “went” on her stomach after they were done. He wrote diss records and performed with a blow up doll Mariah in concert…sounds pressed to me.

      • shadenika.

        the fact people still ask the questions about the feud so she answers.

      • ML

        I don’t get how comparing Nicki addressing the fact that no one is going to run her off the stage is wringing a feud dry vs setting the record straight (this seems to be filmed after the incident…was E! not going to ask her the question?). It was Mariah who spoke with Barbra Walters and took out adds and interviews milking the sympathy card for her new album.

        • BOB

          er mariah has no album out dummy!!! nicki does ha

      • John

        she pressed!!

    • theman

      That clown shouldn’t be there anyway…

    • Yeah.

      Lol why is she STILL talking about this?! You notice how a lot of people were calling Mariah attention seeking for bumping up her security yet Minaj is the one going off in an unprofessional manner, writing childish tweets and firing shots in documentaries. Now, tell me who’s the one that’s being an attention seeker?! Mariah simply issued a statement to Barbara and moved the fuck on!

    • DC3BKM

      Since when is Nicki’s career crumbling? Last time I checked she had a sold out show at the O2 in London and she was on Forbes highest paid rappers list. So remind me again how that is considered crumbling? Let’s not lie just to defend Mimi now Trent.

      • ML

        People just like to take shots. Trini trent will stay addressing her “low” album sales meanwhile she ranks top 12 in sales for the entire year (#1 by a rapper with Drake close behind). Numbers don’t lie but she is at a point in her career where it is easy to attack and bring her down.

      • MC

        Since her last album failed to sell 1/2 her 1st album. Since she has to re-release her second album because it flopped. Since her deal with Pepsi is now given to Beyonce. She definitely isn’t winning, because she has to resort to a reality TV after only 3 years in the biz. No one here is lying. #Fact that her second album has yet to reach 700,000 copies and sell 1.5 in the world. #Fact that she has released 3-4 singles in the last month for her re-loaded album and #fact that none of them charted.

        • ksw

          Her pepsi deal wasn’t given to Beyonce. Beyonce always had a pepsi deal.

        • MC

          I know Beyonce had the deal since 2003, but when was the last time Beyonce made a commercial/active endorsement for Pepsi? A lot time ago, that’s because Nicki was meant to be the face of Pepsi, but now they are shooting a commercial/endorsement with Beyonce.

    • shadenika.

      the fact that “running off the stage” is not about Mariah in general, but ANYBODY.. such as people constantly trying to get to her spot in the upcoming female rap generation & she hasn’t used this feud or talked about it any more than she’s being asked, and “crumbling career” you do realize that she’s the most successful female rapper of all time in the SHORTEST time being mainstream correct? and because her album hasn’t surpassed 700K in the US it’s a flop? yet its sold over a million worldwide.. when you look at how long rihanna’s took to go to a million are you insinuating rihanna is a flop? and because she has re-released her sophmore album with a DVD and more tracks she’s now a flop? you people are legit ridiculous.
      This “nervous breakdown” is from the fact that Mariah was coming at her due to her own jealousy, but it’s fine seen as you forgot those little details. it’s just a re-release but yet Media people like you still want to bring her down.. amazing.

      • Mickie

        “she’s the most successful female rapper of all time”

        Uhh, Missy Elliott, Lauryn Hill and Lil Kim were way more successful than her. The only thing Nicki has them beat in is sales of singles, which is because we’re in an era of digital purchases.

        • theman4u

          and if somehow she does pass them she still has to deal with salt n pepa

        • pineapple

          people seem to forget that Salt-n-Pepa is the only female rap act with a QUINTUPLE PLATINUM album. so Nicki needs to sell FIVE MILLION COPIES before she can be “the most successful female rapper of all time” FYI

          people keep forgetting this shit!

        • karen

          and only cos nicki releases pop singles for the children nursery rhymes
          and everyone knows the children are the ones who buy singles well there mums
          what adult would go on i tunes and by “twinkle twinkle little star” ha ha FAIL

        • BOB

          Exactly Fugess sold 17million worldwide
          misseducation sold 19million worldwide

          kim and missy also sold more than Nicki garbage fact!!

      • Yeah.

        Lmaoooo Nicki stans are always making up stats. One time I saw one of them say “she’s the first female rapper to chart in the UK”…..The tears were reaaaal

    • Joss

      What everyone expected when you bring to the show biggest bitch (Mariah) in show business and biggest clown (Nicki) in industry… :S

    • jj

      This is the same person who lied about working with Lauryn Hill, her sexuality, and her age. Nicki will do anything she can to TRY to get on top. And she’ll probably do anything she can to get something out of this beef with MC.

    • whatevs

      I don’t care for either of them, but the way Nicki try handle this feud make her look arrogant as hell.

    • Adrian

      When will Mr. Minaj quit? We are all WAY over the antics.

    • Adrian

      Yup. Mariah has kept it classy. Nicki is just what her label says…YOUNG money…new to all this. She doesnt know how to act.

      Meanwhile Mariah is still winning and collecting accolades.

    • the real xoxo

      I cant believe i used to like her a year ago! she really is awful!

    • ksw

      ‘Ironically, nobody ran to stores to purchase copies of Minaj’s ‘Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded’ LMBO!!!!

    • truthteller

      Nicki Minaj herself will be the downfall of her career. Everywhere I go I see extreme hate for her that I haven’t seen up until recently. But hey that’s one more overrated, undertalented “artist” gone from the industry. In a couple of years we’re gonna be saying “Minaj who?” And she’ll be releasing pussy pics to stay relevant.

      • BOB

        ha ha sooo funny and true karma is a bitch
        and i cant wait till she fails she disrespect kim mariah everyone shes a cunt!
        cant wait till her 15th mins of fame is up

    • the real xoxo

      “if you dont have anything nice to say, dont say anything at all” – Nicki Minaj.

    • Micky Click

      She Did The Same With Her Other One Talking About Lil’Kim She Lives Off Sympathy!

    • theman

      Barbara called Mariah. Know what you’re posting. Nicki was classless. She cannot compete with Mariah on any level. Lol Her camp better let her know you are nowhere near her league. She got smacked in the face with a major dose of reality LOL.

    • PankATL

      Nicki is such a contrived specimen. Like someone else noted, she will be the downfall of her career. Her steam is already running out. But that’s what happens when you’re a walking gimmick of no substance. You’re hot one minute then you’re an annoyance the next. She doesn’t know if she wants to be a hood chick or Taylor Swift.

    • missy

      why does she have to talk that? she sounds dumb.

    • John

      Flop!!!!

    • olly_tei

      Nicki is annoying..

      But so are the comments regarding her album sales in all her posts. Do we really need a reminder in every article? her album under performed… We get it… it still outsold 90% of the other artist who you post about. If you feel the need to shade her, could you please find something new to say? Cheers

    • Charles Foxtrot

      It’s called a sophomore slump. She’s experiencing one. And she’s a fool.

    • Alicia

      Rappers have a skill. A true, undeniable skill. Nicki has chosen to squander hers for a pop sensibilities. It’s her choice and it’s a bad one, because her fame won’t last. She seems to be confidant in her life choices so she can have it.

    • MmmHmm

      LMAO! SHE NEEDS TO QUIT! LOL I WAS ALSO EXPECTING A GIF *SIGH*

    • WonderLand19

      Its sad to see potential get contaminated by greed and power.

    • JustMe_Andria

      I’m no longer surprised by Nicki’s antics; she has become very predictable. All the stunts grew old after her meltdown. It’s time for her to call Iyanla.

    • pineapple

      at the end of the day, the powerful lyricist we saw on the “Monster” Remix was apparently just a one-time showing. no matter what…her artistry is not nearly what it used to be, and she JUST GOT HERE.

      Nicki Garbaj needs to take a nice long nap

    • StarXavi

      The reason she is so pressed is because she is insecure about her career and she knows shes got a limited warranty in this industry. Eminem and Madonna were never this pressed because they had talent and receipts to back it up!

    • BOB

      Lets face it Sicki #PlayTimeIsOver sweetie ;)
      no one cares about your multiple personality disorder no more

    • Samantha_y

      Man this bitch is getting annoying and quick!!

    • Anna

      Lil Kim tried to warn you all. But noody was listening or they were sayaing she was “hating”. Nicki Minaj needs to fall off the face of earth. I don’t have the time.

    • Anna

      Lil Kim tried to warn you all. But nobody was listening or they were saying she was “hating”. Nicki Minaj needs to fall off the face of earth. I don’t have the time.

    • Guess What

      This is what happens when you sleep your way into the industry & think you can “fill somebody ele’s shoes”. Nicki is definitely on the DECLINE. When you’re re-releasing a FLOP album nobody cared about in the first place. And as far as those “alleged” stories of her Forbes list. I can tell you first hand GAY MONEY & Universal pay the media a lot of money to write phony stories about her. It’s called “putting a spin on it”. When you have Ciara & Cassie for collabo’s you are desperate. All of Nicki’s features have been EPIC FLOPS. The moral of this story is Nicki is a gimmick, pathalogical liar, she’s very phony & evil & conniving. This whole “alleged” beef with Mimi is nothing but publicity stunts for a fake wannabe pop star who can’t do it. Mimi’s debut album alone is better than

    • Guess What

      anything Nicki will ever do. She’s failed the sophomore jinx already. The only person that will be buying the Re -FLOP is the other stunt Queen Baby. Her perfume sales are a joke also. One thing is for sure Nicki is trying to do anything & everything to stay RELAVENT because tbt, she is declining. This is the perfect KARMA for her fake ass for disrespecting all of the female rappers that came before her. Let’s see who’s “old & washed up” now.

      Side note : Nicki is NOT the most successful female rapper of all time when she is already FLOPPING in her “Prime”
      Stop believing all those fake stories they pay the media to say about the CLONE.

    • theman

      Album sales are more important than a cheap azz itunes single. Those matter most. She’s very full of herself. She definitely let the hype get to head. She doesn’t know how to find a balance between hiphop and pop. She just does either or.

    • Justin

      Why does she look WAY older than she actually is? Has anybody notice this?

    • bionic

      why do u always go after nicki minaj , i guess she cant do nothing right in your eyes . the same way no one is running to the stores to buy her so called failed album , no one care about mariah carey and her failed attempt to come back with a proper song ….

      • John

        The same goes for Nicki Flop of a album!!

      • suman

        “on one cares about mariah and her comeback??”
        i remember the last time(2004), everyone was saying this and she came like BAAAAM!
        by the way after the same time being in the industry as minaj is right now, mariah already sold over 50 million albums(not counting singles) , released some of the classic songs etc and that without the help of anything “digital”.
