Whether Mariah Carey loyalists would like to admit or not, it’s easy to see just which of this year’s ‘American Idol‘ judges FOX believe will bring in ‘the numbers’ this season…and it isn’t her.
Indeed, perhaps in realizing the full reach and potential of her brand’s stock, the network have enlisted Nicki Minaj to do most- if not all- of the show’s promo this week, kicking off with a stint on ‘Leno‘ last night and ‘Ellen’ this morning.
Now watch as the ‘Masquerade‘ MC opens up like never before with the latter, dishing on the show’s long hours and more interestingly- tease reports of a rumored new boyfriend.
Fun times below…
Keep it locked on TGJ for more from her appearance in the next hour.
YAWN….Next
If you having sales problem i feel bad for you son, Nick got 99 problems and a hit ain’t one!
This s*** is so hilarious. Mimi is a legend but her personality only works when she’s being bitchy, but if she’s a b**** to Nicki on the live shows everyone will see it and she doesn’t want that. Never thought i’d see the day when Horaj could attract more viewers than Mimi.
LOL are you serious? Nicki’s a f****** flop! Garbage Reloaded: version 987869 is collecting dust at a store near you, go buy a copy.
@zay chile thats sam’s stankn ass spin on this. F*** icki!
MAKE THIS STUPID SHOW & H** END PLEASE… 🙁
OzzieBarb wakakaka!!!! d-mn you cut that haters a new @ss hole.
lmaooooooo. Nice!
this AI show is getting sad and sad year by year…
🙁
8 Thumbs down.. same person commenting 8x
i feel bad for u FAT F******!
Mimi will be read again! next>>>
She is so two-faced – when interviewed by urban people she acts like a hoodrat and when its Ellen she acts like taylor swift.
Who cares?
Its called appealing to the audience. Why would she act like a ghetto hoodrat on a show where middle-aged white women are the target demographic?
B****
Thanks for clearing that up. There are lots of African Americans have no clue how to make it in this country!
Ikr…she a b**** chile
Shut up biaaatch!
But Lil Kim does the same…
shut up b****
LMFAO! Kim tries to do the same but she’s a ghetto b****…
Do YOU act the same with your friends then you do when you’re at work? Do you? Its not two faced its called PROFESSIONALISM.
You are a bias @ss hole who have dedicated is life to hate on nicki and to try and tear her down every chance you get,f-ckoff and fall back and watch nicki be great.
The Mariah fans are gonna be so pissed if Nicki comes out looking better. There’s a reason Nicki’s doing all the promotion, you’re blind if you can’t see it.
But that’s impossible because Mariah IS better than Nicki could ever hope to be.
F*** u h**! Dont come here with that s***! U b****!
your getting so aggressive supporting a h**
you alrite
looool
get a life
we all know mariahs on a different lane from minajs train tracks
oh sweetie im not supportin mariah…i’m just blastn icki and her stans…u c***
Mariah is passive aggressive… she has no good comebacks so she uses “Dahhling” and cliche white b**** s*** as though she’s from the upper class when that h** is from New York City
Kiiiii, Nicki finna be the star of the show.
Go bathe puppy.
This fake b**** gets more likeable with every interview. I will actually p*** myself with laughter if she outshines Mariah on the show and I can see that happening.
It will happen.
But when will u bathe u funky h**? Icki aint s***…like, yo momna b****!!
Nicki will fall to the superior diva. Just like that h** Taylor Swift against Adele at the Golden Globes.
I don’t care for Adele or Taylor but hunny Adele>>Taylor
This h** aint likable at all….u c***
Nicki has a nice personality I just wish she was a better singer TBH.
b**** shuddup
According to the critics, it already happened!
Mariah needs this show more than Garbaj. Call her what you want but every single she puts out makes the top 20 and her albums do sell even if they sell slowly. Mariah coudln’t even get Triumphant in the hot 100 after all the attention it got. If she’s smart she’ll pick on Nicki again to get her to respond and make her look bad, because if she doesn’t it’ll look so bad on her if Nicki’s third album slays and hers doesn’t.
Um Triumphant got no attention idk wtf you’re smoking. And b**** please I know you didn’t bring up album sales how many diamond albums does that gimmick Minaj have? The answer is and always will be ZERO.
Slit ur wrist please, b****. Dont compliment icki, on this blog u h**
Icki has sold 2 million copies with 2 albums this b**** aint selling s*** but wack hip pop songs to f*** and hoodrats who are fat but call themselves barbie!!!
A Rishitta stain calling anyone fans fat? With your grabage ass fanbase? That dont support your FLOP fave enough to get her to a #1 album until 7 yrs in????!!!
UM THE NAVY ARE BETTER LOOKING THAN BARBZ!! I BET MONEY I LOOK BETTER THAN YOU!!!
B**** RIHANNA SELLS IN A MOTH WHAT YOUR FLOP FAVE SELLS IN A YEAR!!! WORLDWIDE D***!!!
B**** RIHANNA SELLS IN A MONTH WHAT YOUR FLOP FAVE SELLS IN A YEAR!!! WORLDWIDE D***!!!
Yall know what will happen if Nicki becomes the star right? The network will show less of Moomoo and make her their priority and help with her album promo. Winnin on this side b******, we f***** winnin on this side.
Nicki’s already lost. Or are we forgetting her last opening week numbers?
Opening week numbers? U mean 253k? or 375k? U keep bringing up the re-up as though it’s a new album. Seek help, a*** patient…
U s***** on the bacck side h**. Go change yo s*** stained panties! Mariah is Queen here b****
Have to say I’m impressed. Mariah looks like she exaggerated when she hired extra security because Nicki comes across as a nice girl in every interview she does. If she’s not careful Nicki will take center stage when the live shows start and either make her look dull OR old if the contestants relate to Nicki more on camera.
U a pressred f** if u think that. U need the s*** knockd outta u. Icki a fraud…like yo mammy h**
That h** ain’t nice.
excuse me, she’s the nicest girl you’ll ever come across.
And another thing, the sad thing is that if Nicki and Mariah released albums tomorrow, Nicki would outsell her like how PF did with Memoirs. Mariah girl, you better be ready to step your game up or else this girl is going to make you look like a fool if the american public think she’s as pleasant as her fans do.
I’m a Mariah fan and i don’t see it as a bad thing, Mariah had her time and what a time it was, the amount she achieved in her first ten years is phenomenal, Nicki Minaj is whats ‘hot’ right now and there will also be a point where she becomes irrelevant, but the real question is when all is said and done who will come on top, whose legacy will be better.
Icki not hot anymore sweetie
MARIAH DONT NEED TO SELL!!! ICKI WILL NEVER SELL 3 MILLION COPIES OF 1 ALBUM!! MC MUSICBOX SOLD 32 MILLION WORL WIDE!! MC HAS SOLD 200 MILLION ALBUMS WORLD WIDE NIKKI CAN EVEN FILL STADIUMS BUT MC CAN!!!
AND MC WAS YOUNGER THAN GARBJ WHEN MUSIC BOX CAME OUT THAT ALBUM ALONE SLAYS ICKI WHOLE CAREER!!
U a mariah hata and icki lover so, kiss my ass. (brushes new wig)
@Rihanna they both slay Rishitta!
B**** ICKI WILL NEVER SEE RIHANNAS NUMBERS ON THE CHARTS OR HER BANK ACCOUNT
I LOVE RIHANNA why are you so mad getting tantrums screaming and sh!t,calm your self down little girl it,s not that serious.
The BARBZ are getting ridiculous now. Your comparing Mariah’s sales with Nicki’s.
How old is Nicki?
How old is Mariah?
Your comparing a 42 year old to a much younger artist.
How will Nicki do when she’s 42?
or better yet, why not compare Nicki’s sales to Mariah’s when she(Mariah) was 27-29. That’s right because you know she will win.
When Mariah was Nicki’s age and younger she was slaying everyone out there. All record labels wanted her.
If nicki is struggling to get a platinum certification now then how will she do when she’s Mariah’s age. Exactly…Next
Darling, I am not a Nicki fan at all but the facts are clear. In TODAY’s world Celine can still sell albums and sell out arenas and in today’s world Nicki is still one of the highest selling new girls out there. In TODAY’s world Mariah struggles to get a song to chart or sell albums like Barbra, Whitney or Celine do to this very day. It’s a sad but honest reality.
Ok but some of you guys act like Mariah is selling Nelly F. numbers, even Mariah past her prime has never sold less than 100k in her first week (excluding xmas). i mean come on lets put things into perspective. Her numbers are not terrible.
You´re not that right hun. Mariah and Celine kept on being successful in different ways. Mariah has definitely sold more albums than Celine in the USA for example, way more. And she just did a couple of shows in Australia in front of 20,000 and 40,000 people.
It doesn´t matter what today´s world is hun, it´s what you did when you had to do it. Nicki will never be hugely successful, Mariah or Celine are/were. By your reasoning… when a huge artist die… then that artist is nothing cos he/she is not dominating charts in “this world”? It doesn´t work like that hun
B**** U R A ICKI STAN U C***!!
I respect your point of view on this but sometimes you seem quite desperate trying to bring celine in everything.
the point is every artist has had ups and downs in there careers from michael to whitney, mariah, celine and so on. but everyone seems to be putting Mariah on the side as if she is nothing. E=MC2 did very well and had good first week sales and it contained her 18th number one song. okay, memoirs has not done as great as her other albums but her numbers aren’t horrible. you seem to have forgotten tht at mariah’s shows in Australia sold out in 4 minutes while nicki’s shows had empty seats in abundance. even Lady gaga was heavily reducing ticket prices not too long ago.
As for ‘Triumphant’, that song was released for her fans in the summer because her album isn’t coming out till March. if you noticed she only performed it once so its not a big deal.
people need to understand that not every song and album will make number one.
And even if celine out sells mariah THIS DAY, it doesnt matter because Mariah, along with Whtney still has undeniably made much more impact on todays music than celine has. have a good day!
Celine releases both English and French albums, so she’ll always have at least one market (though in my opinion Mylene Farmer is far superior to Celine as far as French-Canadian artists go).
Mariah’s issues with her last releases have more to do with bad promo and outdated music style.
My example was that Mariah has sold more albums than Celine in the USA in the last decade, way more. Not the overall numbers (Mariah has sold more in the USA too overall but my example was about the last years cos this person stated saying Celine sells lately and Mariah doesn´t)
I love both so it doesn´t even matter 🙂
Mariah is 42, Nicki is 30.
I’m not reading all that s***
bottomline is Mariah is not interesting! USA today says Nicki owns Idol! Thats a fact!
Mariah is too focused on trying to act mature and composed. And Nicki is just crazy and over the top and doesn’t give a f***!
I kinda like her now.
Then go wash yo funky p**** u b****&
thats nice
only someone with no sense could not see that Nicki is doing all the promo for Damage control!!! her image went down guys, lets be real, she was the hottest thing around until she threw shade on MC and since then her singles and albums have taken a drop which is not good when Idol is expecting her and MC to bringup there ratings! MC’s image has not suffered a blow cos of that drama, Her, Nick and Dem Babies are Americas sweet heart, b**** even sung for the president!! Just cos Nicki is cool with pop tarts and gays does not mean she is more popular then a living legend!
I ‘m glad she has calmed down and is acting more respectable but lets face it, she was not apoligetic at the beginning, she ranted acted like a ratchet and made diss records but it did nothing for her and she knows it which is why now she is on damge control, don’t fool yourselves!
PREACH!!
U typed all that for what, ugly ?
Damage control for what? Nicki was #6 artist of 2012 in the US she reigns on UK chart to this day! 3 albums there! Where is F******?
Nicki did a freestyle and got a shoutout from obama, when will mariah since you started comparing.
get off this blog please
Well, more fool Nicki and the people around her.
Because I DEFINITELY wouldn’t wanna be the judge that’s doing the most promo, but not getting paid the most.
I’m so tired of hearing about American Idol. Singing competitions are so played out!!
You have to see this from the perspective of the producers. They paid Mariah and Nicki to do the same job but Nicki is doing more but getting paid less and is actually doing more for the show than Mariah is. You don’t think they’ll be more inclined to promote her music on the show as a way of saying thankyou. Mark my words when I say Idol are going to make Nicki into a bigger star than she already is by this time next year.
Suuuuck….EVERYBODYS D*** U DELUUUUSIONAL ICKI STAN!! (Puts on see through evenin grown)

MARIAH WILL ALWAYS BE BETTER THAN ICKI PERIOD NO ARGUMENT!! THE ONLY PERSON THAT HAS SOMETHING TO PROVE IS ANIMATION ICKI NICKI!!!
YES. remind these h*** who da f****** queen is.
if it didn’t happen in a 3 yr radius then it’s a NON-MUTHA-F*****’-FACTOR!!!!
They’re really making Nicki the star of this s***? Watch out lambs, this b**** has a interesting way of making legends look bad.
I think Nikki doing most press so people can see she is not as bad as she came off.that way people won’t be turned off by her nasty side. Its so obvious. Its not because Mariah is a non factor. The world knows Mariah and likes her. Nikki showed a bad side and white America, where the money is, do not go for hood rat drama. Nikki is on a clean up promo. Learn
Nicki<3
Where did Triumphant chart again? Oh, nowhere? Sorry.
And? LOL retarded
-HOW IS YOUR FAT FAVE DOING?
LMAO!! Had the NERVE to put two FLOPPED albums together!! LMAO!! HAVE SEVERAL!!! _/
If you know anything about Nicki you’ll know she’s a master manipulator. She’s going to make Mariah look dated. Just watch.
i agree – i guarantee if the video never leaked she would have manipulated the situation for her benefit.
We all saw with our own eyes what Nicki is really like. The video could not be denied.
both of yall WHORES quite down
@ truth, don’t u mean ” quiet down”. bahahahahaha. Dumb ass!!!
ONEOFTHETEENAGEDREAMER isn’t that the same thing Mariah is trying to do to Nicki and is continuing to do so,hiring extra gourds,using Barbara to put Nicki in a bad light,Mariah was happy that video got leak then she tried to capitalized on it,what go,s around comes around,isn’t karma both of you people fav word…anyways Nicki is just promoting her 9-5 she is doing her.
Y’all don’t get it do you? If the show does well who do they’re gonna say made it happen, the b**** who did all the tv interviews to promote it. Get it the f*** together Mariah, don’t let this b**** play you.
“Who do they’re gonna say made it happen”. What? ROTFL! Go back to school man, for real!
Umm please bring back Sophia Grace and the other gorl. At least they have more talent…
Wow, so much chicken in here. I’m getting rite out.
and that pic of you looking like a big fat hen,you the pot calling them kettles black i see and don’t say that pic an’t you.
The comments on this are very boring. I see sam is having a very slow news day. Maybe he should talk about how the huffington post writer wants people to sign a petition so beyonce can’t sing at the pres. 2nd inauguration.
And people are boycotting her sb performance as well
I think Mariah’s loyalists here like myself,johnvidal,mc,slayriah carey,common sense,theman etc have always admitted mimi is past her prime and the fact that she is still alive and keeps goin on is good enough for us…..she wasn’t hired to bring ratings (thats nicki’s job),she was hired to offer these upcoming superstars guidance into an industry she’s been in for the last 23 yrs….nicki’s got to bring in the money that will be used to pay Mimi for her ‘constructive’ opinions coz all of the contestants want to be like mariah not nicki….as for f****** and his/her multiple usernames,keep giving legendriah all your attention xoxo
but the critics said nicki gave out the best advice and sounded more intelligent and gave advice that would actually help them.
the critics said Nicki gave better advice.
FLOP FLOP FLOP
She may bring in numbers for AI(only for controversy) but what happened to Roman FLOPloaded????????? 😕 🙂
it has sold 1.7 mil copies >>>>>>>>>> F******
MARIAH HAS SOLD THAT IN HER SLEEP!! LOL @1.7 MILLION MC WIPES HER ASS WITH THAT
Don’t underestimate Nicki, that’s the mistake Kim made and look what happened to her.
b**** pls…
Mariah Carey has become the main topic in all Nicki’s interviews. She just can’t keep her out her mouths.
stop being bias,mariah bin using that leak video to use nick as a stepping stool to capitalize on whatever she is trying to pull,you saw all off mariah interviews from the accident and all she talk about is nicki like she is this crazy person who wants to kill her,trying everything in her power to make Nicki look bad.
Mariah did 2 (Two) interviews and never did I heard she said: Minaj or Nicki. She avoids speaking that name.
Minaj on the other hand has done tones on interviews, both radio and TV. Mariah was the main topic in all of them.
After all that talking, Mariah doesn’t even have to do any promo: She is the main star of all interviews.
I hate the way she speaks. It was like, than that was like, like like like like bish shut up! Your hair could never be laid like mine!
Who is this petroleum, pink neon sack? And why is it moans like constipated koala bear.?
