In about week, when “American Idol” airs, we will finally get to witness Nicki Minaj and Mariah Carey do what they were placed on the “Idol” judging panel to do. Be divas! And we all know what happens when you put two divas together…

Yesterday marked the beginning of the promo trail for the judges. Nicki and Mariah hit their respected destinations and even paired up as a group for certain circuit stops but it’s clear that despite reports that the ladies are no longer beefing, tension still looms. One thing’s for sure, the ladies are mature enough to handle business when it’s time.

During a group promo stop, things got a little heated. “We’re professionals. Have you ever had an argument with someone you’ve worked with?” questioned Nicki. She was interupted by Carey who claimed “This was sort of one-sided.” “No, it wasn’t,” snapped Minaj, reports TheWashingtonPost.

Former “106 & Park” host Rocsi Diaz interview Carey on ET where she revealed “Here’s what I meant by messy moments. You just have to adapt and my thing is, I have to be myself and that means if in that moment I don’t hear you, I don’t see you, you dont exist to me at this moment, that’s what it is!” She also admitted that she did beef up her security after their altercation.

This is going to get messy, messy, messy(K. Michelle voice). Can’t wait for the season to start!
