The American Idol promotional machine is cranking into overdrive ahead of the show’s return next week.
Duelling divas Mariah Carey and Nicki Minaj are the topic of the lips of many following their much publicised fall-out last Winter – and their subsequent jabs at each other since.
With all of the show’s judges sitting together for FOX’s Winter TCA Tour yesterday in Los Angeles, Entertainment Tonight caught up with 42 year old Carey – quizzing her squarely on the drama and her approach to working with Minaj moving forward.
Check out Mimi’s interview with new ET anchor Rocsi Diaz (of 106 & Park notability) below…

American Idol season 12 debuts next week with a two-night opener, beginning January 16th.
I’m stuck on annoying Rocsi Diaz being present in the vid
GRANDMARIAH SHOULD STAY HOME AND POP PUT MORE BABIES…
😀
Flop show….slow news day huh Sam?????
The only career Mariah has these days is trashing/shading Nicki. Charming right?
(OMG OMG OMG!!! scream to the TOP of my lung like the true B**** i am chile) AAAAAAHHHHHHHH AAAAAHHHHH AAHH AHHHHHHAAAA AAAHHHHH!!!! THANK YOU SAM!!!! MANNA FROM HEAVEN!!! I’M FINNA SLAY LIKE A MUTHA FUCKA chile!!! (Gets Crystal Gail wig out!! adjust bra, put on stelettoes, puts on fake eyelashes(looong ones) porkchop grease on Drake puckered lips and put on my Victoria Secret panties and brah…with angel wings hooked on my back. Tyra Banks runway walks thru post to slay chile)
Mariah has just diluted her diva status by scamming people to believe it is real. Very juvenile and lame.
Yes, Mooriah has put herself in the same standard as Nicki Minaj, Ciara and KeSha…all thrashes. Nice…
Obviously you care, and she cant sell records anymore? Clearly you are delusional. She still selling records that are 20 years old. Have another _/
b**** eat 5 d**** up til you hiccup!! its icki’ss fault u W****!!! (bats eyelashes)
But yet Mariah is the Highest Paid judge on the show. have a _/
who cares, she can’t sell records anymore and she should retire.
Mariah looks like she just swallowed a bucket of KFC yesterday!
Hahahhaahahahahaha
Obviously you care, and she cant sell records anymore? Clearly you are delusional. She still selling records that are 20 years old. Have another _/.
@Phuleeeze and b**** you caint sell p**** nomo homo!! Mariahs a queen of singin icki’s a queen of hell!! (flexes shoulders to flap wings attached to my back)
Gaga, dont get read, stick to the whitewash rivers & lakes that u used to! U will not come for ciara!
And Rocsi sounds so loud & ghetto ! SMH
Mariah has always thrown shade publicly towards other artists she does not like. Nothing new. I don’t see the reason for people attacking her when she was just being herself. Mariah still sells lots of records and is the best selling artist of the 90s. Since Whitney is dead I would say she is the best living commercial female vocalist. Patti and Aretha can outsing her but they are not as commercial and marketable as Mimi. Beyonce and Rihanna can currently outsell Mariah but they are not as talented vocally as Mariah.
Lame..it is all staged..only Sam believe this is real. Grow up..
Tragedy…they should have scrapped this show last year. Next?
Milking the same old s*** from the same old diva to save her career.
Obviously the drama is real dummy, and Mariah’s career aint went no where, you see you still talking about her, aint you??
Mariah gives bad name to her ‘diva’. I mean a judge on flop show?????
hahahhaahahahahahahahahaa…diva my ass.. LOL
yo momma gives a bad name to procreation…look what she created…YOU!!! S****!! (stops JUUUUST long enuf to ass clap in yo face…then continue twisting down the runway(post))
whatever b**** it dont’ change to fact that icik a s****, u h**! (ssw-WIIINGS Crystal Gail wig and keeps shashaying in my Victoria Secret panties and bra)
American Idol is relevant only for MoMoo’s career. RIP
🙁
Shut up…Gaga’s struggling to fill up seats in the USA.
Google it.. LOL
And gaga is soooooo 2010.
Madonna is the best selling female artist of all time.
ofcourse we’ll believe YOU over what the pros just reported
LOL 🙂
We love X-factor better…
all of these shows are s*** – no iconic artist/legend has ever come out of these talent shows and they never will.
The voice beat X factor US in ratings, hon xo
really tired of seeing this whole fiasco everywhere. if you ask me mariah carey is too much of a legend to even have let this thing get to this point. she should have be more classy and ignored it from the jump and chose not talk about it at all and nicki would have looked like a c*** the entire way. now they both look like high school girls going at it…
i guess it’s better to be ‘the queen of shade’ or a ‘diva’ than just being too damn old and experienced and not having time for b*******..
as much as i cant stand nicki nowadays and she is a fool for blowing up like she did, mariah did start it with her ‘shade’ and ‘diva attitude’ like grow up, you’re really not 12 like you think.. you didnt want another female, but they got another female, why not just deal with it and make your dollars..
this s*** shoulda been left in 2012 tbh., they both need a seat somewhere
Queen Mariah tried to let it go then that B**** made a childish rap song about it. thats why her carrer is DEAD!!! AFTER ONLY 2 YEARS!!! LOLOLOLOL chile
Who cares? Trying to revive a flop show with bullish*t between an a** and Mariah. Just end the f*ckery that is this show.
lol @ and a**.
The a** is mariah! LOL
LOLOLOL @ an a**
bleached a***
Death chile
Lol mariah is funny she can shade you but can’t say s*** in your face or when s*** goes down you calling the cops? Mooriah you need a seat! First Jenifer lopez doesn’t exist now nicki? Girl you pressed bitter and insecure
Like Nicki doesn’t throw shade.Y’all Nicki fans are so biased.
Yaaaaasss b**** they, iz!
Mariah never called the cops. It’s for publicity to make Nicki look bad, I mean but Nicki should like this because she portrays herself as a bad girl so MC is actually playing into the image she portrays in her music and videos. Nicki started this so MC will finish it like a pro and will win in the process.
I don’t understand why the Barbz have their panties in a bunch, all that tough talk in your music and now you resort to twitter to talk s***. Do it like a boss and go on a media blitz you rookie, don’t get mad cuz you’re outsmarted.
B**** u betta let those uglyass barbz know chile. Icki looks stoopid
Nicki needs to spend less time disrespecting Mariah and more time promoting flop re-loaded
@Mariah its certified platinum
where is memoirs of an angel food cake? has it pushed gold yet after 3 yrs?
nearly 800thousand copies sold in 9 mos >>>> 700k in 4 yrs !
Mariah is a scary b****! so p****! LOL
@PussyStankAwful gooooowrl u better off just attackn Queen Mariah personality bcus u know FUCKN WELL ITS DUMB TO COOMPARE RECORD SALE H**! ILL SMACK THE F*** OUTTA U!! HELL!!
@PSA (FAF)
YES ACTUALLY IT HAS GONE GOLD!!! DUMB F***!! JUST REMEMBER THAT WAS HER 12TH ALBUM AND STILL MANAGED TO PUSH THEM SALES!! U STAND FOR SOMEONE WHO CANT SELL A MILLION ON HER SECOND ALBUM!!! SO HAVE SEVERAL!!!
YEAH! And nicki’s a saint!! F*** OUTTA HERE FOOL!!
Just look @ the d*** b**** on the panel…she LOOKS every bit of the bitter broken s**** b**** she is. Just look at her!
you sleeeeeeeezy b****!!!!
Nail that fcking coffin please and lower to 7 foot below forever !!!!!!!!!
You’re calling yourself american FLOP as though you’re “READING” the show, yet u title ur name that, dedicating 16 characters to it….. ppl on this site are so bored w/ themselves smh!
And the only coffin she nailing is her own bc ppl look at her like she cant hold water ! She wont be back next yr !
I heard that icki wont b back next year too b****. I guess we acyually agree on a icki blog. Didnt c THAT comn chile
“Duelling divas Mariah Carey and Nicki Minaj ” PUH-LEASE since when Onika is a Diva…chile have a seat => _/
OKAAAAAYYYYY!!!! (twerks my p**** in my panties and bra)
I believe point blank period she was pissed when Idol approached another woman and hated that they didn’t think she was enough for the show.
I can’t take this s*** seriously though, her hiring her little security guards like Nicki is on top of a building lining up a shot. Too stupid.
NO H** YOU STOOPID FOR SIDING WITH THAT B**** ICKI YOU LOOOOOOSER!!! (walks away in my thongs)
“* walks away in my thongs*”
I was wondering what that smell is, hop off Nicki’s d*** and change your damn drawers. I see flies circling your cooch.
Nicki looks dope in the top pic but mariah looks old and like a mother of 5 who’s husband is a drunk bearded man No touch up today?
yo mammys ON dope! (bats eyelishes suductively while porkchop greased lips are puckered)

REPOST FROM LASTNIGHT!
___________________________________________
She doesn’t exist ? yet u hire extra security bc u scared? LMAOOOOOOOOO Yet she requested her to be on her song and video 4 yrs ago before ANYONE KNEW HER>>> SURE MARIAH ! Y’all writing paragraphs meanwhile u not banking 14mil or 2mil or 30,000 for your comments here! Not only that but you waste your time writing things that are not fact unlike Rhoe being dragged for her drug usage by her own fans, nicki has 2 platinum albums was #6 on 2012 yr end chart & dragged mariah for filth whos still talking about the lashing she received… Have I run out of reason for you to be pressed? y’all mad.. LMFAO whos the real joke ? QUEEN BETTER WERK!!!
you a SLEEEEEZY b**** get out on the corner!! (kenya moore twirls while fl-LINGING my Crystal Gayle wig in this h** face)
Both Mariah and Nicki are b******, but one doesnt pretend to be anything else.
Mariah is a legend, Nicki is a gimmicky fad.
Both are skunk..classless!
🙁
Gimmicks w/ money >>>>>>>>>>>>
when will u realize thats not bothersome nor a diss!
gimmicks get records sold!
yo momma

You just described your momma b****.

LOOOOOOOOOL!!! DONT DO IT!!! PLEASE DO NOT GO THERE CHILE!! LMFAO!!!!
@Monster Rebel HEY B**** BACK OFF!!! IIIIMM SLAYING IKCI SO SLAY SOMEONE ELSE!!! yea so like I was sayn icki cheap, slutty, no career and no sales?????
The only career Mariah has these days is trashing/shading Nicki. Charming.
🙁
Yup, she gets paid 18 mil just to do that 😉
LMFAO 18mil is s*** after 20 yrs in the game !
Nicki getting 14mil ! where that leave GrimRIah ?
@PussySoAcid B**** GETCHO ACID P**** OFF THIS BLOG!! H**!!
whats YOUR career h**!! popn p**** for foodstamps? (bends over in my Victoria Secret thongs for this h** to kiss my ass)
Nicki is only getting ten to twelve mil.
Mraiah 200,000,000 albums sold.Nicki 3.5 million sold.The End
CTFU damn.
Nicki has sold more than 3.5mil, though..
U tried 😉
And Mariahs sales are rounded up, if she had sold over 200mil, she would be tied w/ madonna, and half of them were in the ’90s with no digital age…
LMFAO y’all better cling to what y’all know…
PSA NOW YOU JUST SOUND STOOOOOOPID
#POW
DEAD
wish mahora could exchange places with WHITNEY HOUSTON
you should be ashamed to really say anything like that. that is just disrespectful to human life. you should rethink those types of words
LOOOL!!! So f****** lame!! Mahora?? HA! Try Again!!
Your life must be very miserable!!
why is my life miserable ?? cause i dont like mahora ?
guess what cause she is such a b**** so many people have lost their job or chances on a carreer cause she is afraid someone will do it better ..
and i am not saying kill mahora…but if i had the choice i would want Whitney Houston back and mahora gone 😉
I’m still gonna watch tho. F*** x factor. Lame judges like Britney and Demi don’t hold my interest.
When will you lose those 50 lbs you gained F******?
i’ll let mc get you if he even chooses to be bother chile
i hope this s*** actually boosts american idols sinking ass ratings. im tired of hearing about it!!
I am tired of hearing about both of them and the whole thing is too f****** stale for me to give a single f***.
Onika Maraj, please have respect for you superiors, specially if they are LEGENDS whose careers started around the same time your mother lost her virginity.
Honey, QUEEN CAROL is in her 50s
she dont even know who Mariah is! She listens to gospel and is from Trinidad!
this “feud” is old. but you people on here saying Mariah has no career and foolishness like that. saying she has no sales. yet when ever she is mentioned, we hear the sentence ” one of the best selling female artist of all time”. there is no need to further defend her resume.
i’ll ask what i read on beyonce, nikki etc post when people hate, why are you here? if you don’t like mariah, why press play to hear what ever she had to say? ya’ll act like she walking around talking about it, NO, she answered questions asked. on here crying like little babies because she has an opinion of NIkki…..just like ya’ll dont use her, she dont see nikki…..get over it and yourselves.
Read!
excited to see how this s*** plays out…
Yes the fued is fake and old but Idol starts soon thats why its coming back up so much.
Mariah is beautiful and a Legend, Nicki is a non factor, we know this
I love how Barbara and Rocsi are keeping it real and reporting Mariah is the best selling female artist of all time.. goes to show you that Madonnas sales are inflated by her company.. before 1991 you could get away with it, now u cant. Mariah has her receipts from soundscan, madonna dont
Madonna is the best selling female artist. Barbara and Rocsi are stupid old h*** who dont read much other than playing with their wooden d***** …
@FIXED
thank u!!!!!!!!!!!!! They don’t know facts!!!! THIS F** IS WHITE!!!!!
Seriously though Mariah needs to lose that weight, it’s just not working for her to be plus size. Jennifer Lopez would never, even after two kids, she still looks s***. Mariah needs to get it together.
Stop worrying about Mariah’s weight and go tell J-h** to take some vocal lessons
Of course JLo would never. It´s the only thing she can rely on: her body. Please go back to school
(pops p**** in yo face in my panties and bra)
Mimi will get the weight together for the live shows. I can tell shes been eating good since they wrapped filming on the principle nonlive shows
Why would you even compare her to J-lo? J-lo is a dancer so of course she keeps up with her body.
I love Mimi! She is a grand diva and such a b****, she has every right since she earned her stripes in the game. Nicki is looking like a foolish hoodrat c*** right now. She may be hot now but she will learn her place, you don’t step to a legend and think you will come out smelling like roses. Mariah has her PR game on lock while Nicki is looking like a violent gun toting clown in uniform. MC is the best selling of all time, give her the respect she’s earned. You still have to prove yourself rookie, give me at least 10 years in the game before you demand respect.
#youdontexisttome #thatswhatitis
a real diva doesnt need to do this…get real Lamb!!!!!
Nicki’s not looking like s***
& she demanded respect & got it
U MAD?! The security beefed up is evident she was pressed, stressed w/ no rest !
and the Barbs dragged the lambs old asses out their geriatric wheelchairs on Twitter…! #BOOM #TakeIt
Icki is looking like pure D s*** chile
You Barbz didn’t drag anything. All you fools did was just further prove how classless and ratchet you are.
Tiresome..it is all scripted to boost the ratings.
Mariah has all you Icki Garaj fans pressed. She started s*** and it backfired, and now Icki is getting all this bad press. This year will be the end of Icki’s career just wait and see. No one wants to work with an attitude having b**** with no talent.
Is that why she was read for filth on every blog/twitter of the Barbs ?
she need to keep i in her own corner dont nobody care about how many albums she sold as a SINGER
before she turned black and finally left her abusive husband who got her where she is today!
he OWNS that h**! LMFAO ! and her TALENT got her on that panel making 4mil from what your fat fave is making!
U better keep typing paragraphs and dissertations!
Your comment became invalid the second you mentioned Twitter.
BOTH ARE CLASSLESS BITCHESS..
RIP
YOU rip h**!! (adjusts my panties…starts shashaying tho post again chile)
Its obviously for ratings now because Idol is about to start.
Nicki isn’t prevalent to Mariah’s life and Mariah isn’t prevalent to Nicki’s life. What else is new though? 🙄
Big up to Rocsi doing her thang! I no longer give two shits about the subject anymore, or at all for that matter.
A REAL DIVA DOESN’T NEED TO GET INVOLVED BY DISSING OTHERS TO INCREASE POPULARITY..
JUST SAYING !!! 🙁
That’s not the definition of what a diva is. A real diva is a famous female opera singer; a female singer who has enjoyed great popular success. That describes Mariah.
Well go tell yo momma that
I AGREE!!! SO TELL ICKI TO STOP chile!! kicks steletto boot heel to the back )
And the stans are still fighting over this 😆 What’s left to say? Everything has already been said and done, so move the f*** on with your lives. Same s***, different day.
Mariah is trying WAY too hard for publicity ..
I mean B****, STOP! .. Act like pro for once!! It’s not 1995 anymore
All of this will not help your next album to sell .. Ugh
A 42 yrs old cow and acting like a 22 yrs old diva .. SHAME
h** just chlick your heels 3 times and goto hell!! c***!!
Not from an Xtina stan, puh-lease spare me.
I dont think Mariah is going on a trashing spree like everyone’s making it seem. I just thinks she’s telling her side. Nicki did it, now its mariah’s turn.
Nicki said what she said, put a lyric in a song ALL IN ONE WEEK!
Mariah been doing this for over a month, starting with Barbara on the View
so when Nicki curses that b**** out again, I will LAUGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!! Ki
rest b****
Dont forget Nicki also talked about it in her recent reality show. And lets not even mention whats she did on twitter. With that being said i guess you can say they’re equally shading one another.
The typical person posting under different names again just to hate. What´s new?
Wow, I never thought about that. smh Thats wack. Just comment and keep it moving.
It’s just pathetic how they feel the need to do that.
YAAASSSS B****** THE TRUTH IS HERE IN VICTORIA PANTIES(THONG) AND BRA WITH MY CRYSTAL GAYLE WIG AND THIGH HIGH RED STELETTO BOOTS TO SLAY ICKI AND HER STANS!!! (twirls twice and begin to twist/switch back up post/runway LOOKN to slay while lookn over my forehead suductively chile)
the barbz saying Mariah is “desperate for publicity so she disses people”
isnt that the pot calling the kettle black?
it seems that its okay for Nicki to disrespect people in almost every song but when someone else does it its wrong!
They’re nothing but hypocrites, it’s nothing new lol.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rfQpI6ZCMIs
Mariah is a washed up has been that’s why they reached out to Nicki they knew just having Mariah alone wouldn’t pull in any ratings they needed someone current and someone that will pull in the youth and we all know the youth live for Nicki right now but all that aside this stupid drama is being carried on for too long time for some new tea
More ignorance. They wouldn’t have Nicki alone, she doesn’t fit the billing. Mariah alone is enough to carry whatever. What can Nicki tell a real singer. Lol that’s laughable. Clowns are for entertainment. MC isn’t even really saying much. Stupid people….
If that were the case, Nicki would be the higher paid judge…but we all know that Mariah’s check is bigger than hers. In this business, it’s MONEY that talks and the money is saying that it’s MARIAH who is the most important name on the panel. Not flash in the pan Minaj.
I am dying at this shade. Mariah is giving me LIFE with her shade already this year. American Idol is gonna edit the diva to a T on Idol this yer. Theyre gonna edit the nonlive shows to make Nicki look extra crazy and Mariah look extra diva. I just know the producers are loving this s*** knowing theyre gonna eat good this year
First, it’s never going to be a happy moment when I see that INARTICULATE W**** Rocsi Diaz (remember the secret island flights she use to take to screw LISA RAYE’S husband?).
Second, I’m going to need MOOriah Carey to HAVE SEVERAL SEATS with this bulsh** at this point! And I am not a SiICKI Minaj fan but enough with these constant MC Drama Queen moments. This reminds me of her epic battles with various Divas thoughout the decades. LOL 🙂
***Ladies play nice or sit at the kiddie table with Roc & Roe
I mean I guess Mariah has got to the album sales somehow. Why not beef with Nikki! And is it just me or does she seem to have totally turned white?
This “feud” between them and their fans is ridiculous. I’m a fan of both but I don’t care for both of their involvement in this then and now. I mean these women are being paid millions yet this is what we keep coming back to. They are missing out on a huge opportunity. I still think that a collaboration between them could be huge and especially right now. Both of them need to get over that Hollywood s*** and come to together.
Well, I agree with what you wrote, but not with all of it. Regardless, it’s all excellent material. Thanks!
