Nicki Minaj tells Jay Leno her feud with Mariah Carey isn't fake

Monday night, Nicki Minaj appeared on “The Tonight Show with Jay Leno. During her time in the hot seat, Minaj told Leno that her feud with fellow American Idol judge Mariah Carey isn’t fake.

Minaj said, “It definitely isn’t a fake feud. Minaj went on to describe her “rivalry” with Carey all the while referring to herself as Mariah’s “biggest fans in the world.”

“A lot of it just starts out us joking, but we’re passionate, we’re both crazy. And then sometimes it just goes, ‘Roar’, and you can’t really stop it.”

“It’s just one of those weird things, you gotta see it to get it.” Minaj went on to ask Leno how he thought she should handle a public rivalry.

Leno advised her to ignore it. “I just ignore it. Let the other people feud. You’re a musician. You do what you do.”

"We just do our show. I don’t say bad things about anybody. People do what they do.”

The new season of American Idol premiered on Thursday, Jan. 17.
