Pop open your poop umbrella and cover your nose, because the shizzle just hit the fan!
After ousted American Idol judge Steven Tyler suggested newcomer Nicki Minaj was incapable of spotting talent, the vitriolic rapper responded by calling him a bitter racist and suggested his time could be better spent attempting self-intercourse.
It started when the Aerosmith frontman dissed the new Idol cast and, more specifically, Her Minajesty.
He told MTV:
“I know that they’ve got something going on on the judges’ panel, [and] it shouldn’t be that, it should be just the opposite: They should have something going on, which is called ‘camaraderie.’ They should have something going on so thick and beautiful that they can lay it over the new talent that’s trying to birth itself. It needs to be birthed, not judged by ‘entertainment’ factors, it needs to be judged by people that [are] honest, true, that have the ‘it’ factor. Not the ‘it’ factor because they can fight. The f— is that all about?
These kids, they just got out of a car from the Midwest somewhere and they’re in New York City, they’re scared to death; you’re not going to get the best [out of them]. … If it was Bob Dylan, Nicki Minaj would have had him sent to the cornfield! Whereas, if it was Bob Dylan with us, we would have brought the best of him out, as we did with Phillip Phillips. Just saying.”
Ouch!! Harsh words!!
Never one to take a pounding lying down, Nicki responded via Twitter with a comeback of her own:
I understand you really wanted to keep your job but take that up with the producers. I haven’t done anything to you. That’s a racist comment

You assume that I wouldn’t have liked Bob Dylan??? why? black? rapper? what? go fuck yourself and worry about yourself babe.

Racist?! Hmm…
To be fair, the I Don’t Wanna Miss a Thing singer was pre-judging Nicki’s talent judging abilities.
While prejudice sucks, it does not necessarily equate to racism! Perhaps Steven felt she was unqualified to spot talent for other reasons.
But how would he even go about effing himself, anyway? That sounds complicated! And potentially dangerous!!
Ugh!!! It makes us sad when celebs can’t play nice, but we have a solution…
Bury the hatchet and record a duet!!
Between her Barbz and his cougars, who wouldn’t download that single?
