President Obama Weighs In on Nicki Minaj & Mariah Carey Feud

Can POTUS keep the peace?

Nicki Minaj and Mariah Carey's feud has made this season of "American Idol" a good one and it hasn't even started yet. Earlier this month, a video from the set leaked showing the two alpha-females dropping the facade and going at it in between the auditions of aspiring singers. Nick Cannon said the beef was no big deal; Jennifer Hudson claimed the stunt was all for ratings. It's anyone's guess how the divas will make it through the show, but President Barack Obama has faith. He told radio host Michael Yo, "I think that they are going to be able to sort it out. I am confident. I'm all about bringing people together, working for the same cause. I think both outstanding artists are going to be able to make sure that they're moving forward and not going backwards." However, he has picked a side, "Mariah. She's actually done some events for us. I've gotten to know her and Nick [Cannon]. She's a wonderful lady. Nicki, I don't know, but I've got her on my iPod." Too bad for Nicki; she just endorsed the Pres. (TMZ)
