By Latina Staff | 05/03/2013 - 09:42 | 0 Comments
Thought the drama between Mariah Carey and Nicki Minaj was over? Think again. The American Idol judges started taking jabs at each other again this week. During Wednesday night's show, Mimi made a backhanded comment towards Nicki while critiquing one of the contestants and said, "Again, back to the Billboard Hot 100, No. 1 song, which you just performed -- which is difficult to get; not everybody has that."
The rapper took to her Twitter to blast Carey and even alluded to the rumors that Jennifer Lopez was asked to replace her on the show. "All dem #1s but JLo phone ringin? Lol. I guess having a personality, being a secure woman, and giving genuine critique still trumps that," she tweeted. Ouch. These ladies sure know how to keep a feud going! Here's a history of their Idol-sized drama...
A Precursor to the Drama?
In February 2010, Mariah Carey recruited Nicki Minaj, who was just starting to make her mark in the music industry, to appear on one of the tracks on the part-Venezuelan singer’s Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel. The pair even appeared together in the video for the aptly titled single, “Up Out of My Face,” which was directed by Carey’s husband Nick Cannon.
