Well, celebrity blogger Perez Hilton did stoke the fires. Let's backtrack, shall we? On Wednesday's Idol, upon critiquing a contestant's performance, Carey made a jab in Minaj's direction, saying: "Again, back to the Billboard Hot 100, No. 1 song, which you just performed - which is difficult to get; not everybody has that."
Here's where Hilton comes in: responding to a Thursday morning post on his gossip website which declared "Mariah Carey burns Nicki Minaj on Idol," Minaj tweeted to Hilton, "Bwaha! Burn? She's said I tied her record for Hot 100 entries in only 3 years of being in the game. Yep, a black female rapper."
And then: "What you should be doing (wit your messy ...) is asking why a woman so successful at her age, is still so insecure, and bitter." Oh, and Minaj also alluded to rumors that Idol wants Jennifer Lopez back on the judging panel: "All them #1s but JLo phone ringing? Lol. I guess having a personality, being a secure woman, and giving genuine critique still trumps that."
