Nicki Minaj, Mariah Carey Second Round Feud; 'Pink Friday' Rapper is Said to Go After Nick Cannon
The feud between Mariah Carey and Nicki Minaj is ready to enter another round. As the "Pink Friday" singer is rumored to go after Carey's ex-husband Nick Cannon. This will become another chapter to their 2012 feud during the "American Idol" Season 12.
Carey and Minaj join the "American Idol" Season 12 in September 2012 as judges with Keith Urban and the long-time judge Randy Jackson. One month later, a leaked video was circulated showing the singer and rapper exchanged harsh words. The video was taken during the audition in Charlotte, North Carolina.
Years later, Carey still remembered the terrible event and feud. In August last year, she reminisced the event and slammed her experience in the "American Idol" Season 12 as reported by Daily Mail. She recalled the event as, "the most abusive experience."
However, long after the incident in the "American Idol" Season 12, the bad blood between Minaj and the R&B diva does not die down easily. Earlier this week, Carey collaborated with Minaj's rival Remy Ma in her new single "I Don't." Similar to Carey, Minaj also threatened to shoot Ma with a gun in 2007. Therefore, this collaboration is a show-off force against the 34-year-old rapper.
As a retaliation, Minaj is rumored to prepare to start another feud with the 47-year-old singer. The rapper is speculated to go after Carey's ex-husband Cannon. However, the rumor may not be valid, as Carey and Cannon are still going well. Therefore, the second round of the "American Idol" Season 12 feud may not happen soon.
During the "Nickelodeon’s 2017 Kids’ Choice Awards" earlier this month, Carey and Cannon were seen attending the event with their twin sons Roc and Roe as reported by PEOPLE. They looked happy and took care of the children together. Her old nemesis in the "American Idol" Season 12 was busy preparing her new album.
