    Mariah Carey “Emotionally Uncomfortable” Following Nicki Minaj Fight

    Written by TriniTrent | Filed under Mariah Carey,Nicki Minaj

    The ‘American Idol’ cast

    Unless you’ve been living under Wendy Williams’ wig, you have definitely heard about Mariah Carey and Nicki Minaj’s verbal showdown on the set of ‘American Idol’. However, additional details about their fight have surfaced and the information comes via Carey herself.

    Carey spoke exclusively to Barbara Walters of ‘The View’ about her war of words with Minaj and stated that she has been left “emotionally uncomfortable” following the shocking incident. The diva expressed that she became increasingly concerned for her own safety and even hired extra security after her team reported that they heard Minaj scream, “if I had a gun I would shoot that bitch.”

    Nigel Lythgoe of the ‘American Idol’ production team told TMZ, “the statement [that Minaj made a death threat] is absolute rubbish. It’s absolutely not true in any way, shape or form.” Regardless, Carey has confirmed that she will continue as a judge on the show, and when Minaj told her that they will probably fight again, Carey responded, “no, we will not.”

    Watch Walters’ share Carey’s comments on ‘The View’ below:

    Keys: american idol, mariah carey, nicki minaj

    • sam

      I think Mariah is being a drama Queen & is milking this for all media attention she can get. Mariah is smart, she knows she needs some media attention to stage a comeback.

      No one cares about her anymore because there’s nothing more for her to do. There’s no “struggle” to overcome…people are bored of her.

      • HaveASeat

        well i wish somebody paid me $18M for a few months work to show how boring & irrelevant i am. go play in traffic, lil boy.

    • Yuli

      Please Sam! In first place Nicki-clown shouldn’t be there judging singers when she basically can’t sing(or perform). Second, the video was very CLEAR, while Mariah remained calm, the other ghetto slut started to trash mariah. You CAN’T trash a legend, she doesn’t know who she was talking too, MARIAH has plenty of receipts, she has sold over 215 million records, Nicki is nothing

      • sam

        Nicki is below trash! But that doesn’t mean Mariah isn’t making herself look stupid. The idol rep even said the gun comment was a lie!

        • Shea Butter

          …how does she look stupid? because she told people she didn’t enjoy Nicki’s outburst and that it made her uncomfortable?? …i guess you’d prefer for Mariah to have just taken Nicki’s childish ass behavior and not said a word? Get real!

          Nicki showed her ass, but then again that is nothing new for her.

        • sam

          She looks stupid because she claimed Nicki threatened to shoot her…yet the Idol producer claimed it never happened.

    • …

      oh my goodness. nicki minaj has probably ended her own career. as a huge fan im going to miss her. r.i.p… :(

    • Polo

      its all really childish .and i love em both (more a carey fan) but i think she’s(mariah)made herself look quite “uhoh-ish” now because of the producer saying it was never said from nicki, this is going to be wild because they now have to pretend to like one another when the live shows begin

      • HaveASeat

        what do you expect his dumb ass to say?!? YES…..my other highly paid judge (who I’ve been receiving flack for b/c we only really hired her to attract more attention to the show) really is a mental case. if he admits that she said that, he’d be the dumbast ass in the room.

    • LOL

      LOOOOOOOOOOOL at “This b****h is shaking the table” Trent is too funny, I agree though Nicki looks childish.

    • http://www.RonaldMatters.com RONALDMATTERS.COM

      Sitting here at my job right now. If ANY ONE of my co-workers demeaned my existence multiple times and referred to me as “inadequate” I’d be going off too. Has nothing to do with a Nicki or a Mariah. That’s just standing up for myself when I’m being attacked.

      Mariah is a bully. Using her 200 million records sold and other accolades to taunt Nicki. Nicki stood up for herself.

      It may not be in a way WE agree with … but she did.

      • HaveASeat

        how do you know Mariah “bullied” her? were you there? if you were, can you please tell us what Mariah actually said to start this whole shit? like, what did she do/say to set Nicki off on a tirade? did she make Nicki feel bad b/c she’s able to say “as a singer……as a producer……as a songwriter”? if y’all can’t see how insecure Nicki comes across, idk what to tell you. like why is everyone so quick to assume that Mariah was TAUNTING her? like, really? which one comes across as a child? hmm? this is such bullshit. Mariah is a bully. y’all negroes slay me.

    • mary

      I’m on Mariah’s side. Mariah rules!!!

    • Jasanti

      All I have to say is…you can take the girl out the hood, but you can’t take the hood out the girl. NOW…if Mariah wants to play “Diva” and a wothink you can come at someone hood WITHOUT seeing the hood in that person you are confronting. Then you are not a Di you’res simply a woman that can sing your ads off. I don’t condone any of what Nicki did, but she is hood and will act accordingly when being confronted. I blame American Idol because they know the bitch is crazy. A diva like Aretha, Gladys, Whitney, Pattie, or even Monica would have took that challenge! Ijs….

    • Ariana

      Some people are just too ignorant. If someone is having a problem with you at work, you approach the person, talk to them and express your concern. You won’t act like a crazy clown typing your frustrations away on FB or calling out people’s names. Seriously, calling someone a bully just because someone is ranting on TT & being a damn mess is just ridiculous.

      Like I said before, this shows nothing but your level of education, specially for someone who’s in their 30s.
      POW.

    • Yeah.

      I agree with Ariana. Say for example you worked in a clothing store and you felt your co-worker was always taking shots at you and was calling you ‘inadequate’, would you flip out and make a scene in front of all the customers? NO. Everyone knows that in any situation where you’re having problems with a co-worker the mature thing to do is to speak to the person involved quietly. It’s bad enough that Nicki went off at her but then to trash her on Twitter? That’s so tacky! Mariah could have said something shady to Barbara about Nicki but she didn’t, she kept it cute and professional.
      Also, the reason the producer is denying Nicki said she would shoot Mariah is because he asked Nicki if she said it and Nicki said ‘no’. Obviously Nicki isn’t going to say ‘yeah, I said it’ so he’s denying it based on what Nicki said. I don’t think Mariah made it up cos she said several members of staff heard it and if she was lying she wouldn’t say other people heard it too cos she’d know (if she was lying) that those other people would deny it and make her look stupid. THINK about it!

    • Yeah.

      Btw Mariah said HER TEAM AND STAFF MEMBERS heard it. She didn’t say SHE heard it.

    • theman4u

      wow, now mariah is playing victim, smh. and please NO ONE heard Nicki say that not even mariah. She was giving it back to nicki so she isnt innocent in this either, she called Nicki out of her name

    • Sane

      Why Mariah decided to entertain this foolery anymore than she already had beats me…Thought Mariah presented herself more like a lady, she still did call Nicki a bitch…so she is at fault too…she would be a fool to stick around for next season even if they pay her triple of what she is getting now..No amount of money is worth trouble or damage she could get into later…bc this isn’t looking good!

      Nicki stay acting a fool…like what business does Mariah want with her? To say you’re emotionally uncomfortable on the show then turn around and do a interview regarding the dispute seems fishy to me…Of course Nicki is going to respond and that’s going to make things more uncomfortable

      As a HUGE Mariah fan, I’m not to happy with her…Mariah is much more than this!

    • Sane

      In other words…Mariah can have a seat, Nicki can have several

    • MmmHmm

      SOMEONE NEEDS TO FIRE NICKI FROM THE SHOW! WHEN WILL HER CRAZY CHILDISH ANTICS END?! 1ST ALL FEMALE RAP LEGENDS, LIL KIM, CHER, MARIAH, DA BRAT & NOW MORE CHILDISH TWEETS! SOMEONE NEEDS TO STOP HER!
