Earlier this week, footage was released of Nicki Minaj and Mariah Carey in a heated argument while serving on the audition panel at American Idol.
On “The View” earlier today, Barbara Walters said that she called Carey before the program. Carey said that multiple people heard Minaj when she walked off the AI set say, “If I had a gun, I would shoot the bitch.” Carey has since hired extra security and said she feels “emotionally uncomfortable.”
Breaking her silence on the matter, the Harajuku Barbie took to Twitter to speak on the feud, stating that Carey is making herself out to be a victim and that “insecurity” is what prompted Carey to say that Minaj threatened her with a gun.

“Hey yAll. Lets just say nicki said smthn about a gun. ppl will believe it cuz she’s a black rapper. Lmao. I’ll then hit up Barbara n milk it,” she wrote. “Ironically no camera or mic heard the gun comment tho. Lol @ the struggle. Not even the producers believed u. Say no to violence barbz. Y~oe”
She ended her rant by stating that she thought the issue had been resolved yesterday, but that it apparently hasn’t. “I guess it hurts 2 have the producers tell u to ur face that nicki is the best judge we’ve had since simon. Awww, poor u. Keep them lies cmn.”
