Celebrities Behaving Badly, Nicki Minaj | featured news

Headlines over the past week have been dominated by a fiery, often bitter fight, and we’re not just talking about Obama vs. Romney. We're talking about the nasty feud between “American Idol” judges Nicki Minaj and Mariah Carey. Behind-the-scenes audition video showed the young rapper ripping Carey with scathing remarks like "off with your head" and "I will knock you out.” The jaw-dropping outburst prompted Carey to tell Barbara Walters that Minaj went as far as to threaten to shoot her, which reportedly resulted in Carey hiring extra security.

Relax, "American Idol" fans! Everything is fine despite all the reports about judges Nicki Minaj and Mariah Carey feuding! Well, that's what the show's producers are saying on Friday after yet another day of reports of trouble between the two superstars.

Last month, Mariah Carey denied she was fighting with fellow "American Idol" judge Nicki Minaj, joking that they'd only been together two days and "a feud takes a little longer to happen." Well, it looks like it's been long enough - video has surfaced of Minaj cursing out the pop star on the "Idol" judges' panel.
