Mariah Carey‘s “shade dispenser” status has been established almost as long as her reign atop of the charts. Indeed, the legendary diva is renown for her quick-witted responses and  brisk dismissal of tomfoolery.

Hence, it was little surprise that the singer adopted this approach when addressing her “beef” with Nicki Minaj in a sit-down interview with Barbara Walters on Nightline last night.

Famed for asking questions the people really want answers to, Walters quizzed Carey on the drama with her fellow American Idol judge,  motherhood, marriage, and more.

The segment also featured Mimi working on patriotic cut ‘Bring It On Home’ and another piano-driven number – the latter of which believed to be a track from her upcoming album.

 Peep these snaps of ‘Styled To Rock’ front woman Rihanna, out and about in Hollywood.

Perhaps celebrating the news of Rita Ora‘s debut album reaching Platinum status in the UK (though we doubt it), the Pop beauty hit the ‘My Studio’ Club sporting a brand new look, snapped by paparazzi and armed with full time shadow Melissa Forde.

Quite interestingly, Riri wasn’t the only Chris Brown affiliated beauty at the club last night. Indeed, the venue also welcomed her alleged love rival Karrueche Tran, who left 15 minutes after arrival.

Fun.

The above is what fans of hit show ‘American Idol’ are set to receive from new judge Nicki Minaj, when the show hits screens January 16th.

Sure, while the ‘mess’ with Mariah Carey has ensured the ‘worst’ side of her persona has been placed under public scrutiny, a new teaser released today showcases the lighter side to the Rap Queen. So lighthearted, even Carey seemed amused by her ‘ab related’ antics.

Christened ‘Boys’, the track is not confirmed as a single. However, based on their new acapella performance of the cut (which you can view below), we’d be oh so amped if it was!
