“She could have been upset because the night before she was wearing the same colored dress as Mariah [Carey], or that she was on time. We never know. But I know that I love her as a judge,” he added. “It’s when she gets into the exaggerative speaking, where it’s just like, ‘Ah, take it easy!’ You don’t wanna hurt somebody else’s feelings.”
Soon after, Minaj let loose in a series of raging tweets.
“Lol. Be mad @ AMERICA when u get sent home. The JUDGES are the ones who FOUGHT for America to get the opp to VOTE 4 U!!! #memba?,” she tweeted. “America r the “potential” fans…u MUST win them over. “Saves” are bullsh*t and they know it. Those girls are just too good this year.”
“Send the judges some flowers and a card. If Curtis didn’t get SAVED, NONE of u get saved! Best male voice of the SEASON!!!!!!!!!!! #TruthTea” Minaj continued. “Trust me BEW BEW. If EYE didn’t want u in that TOP, YOU wldnt have been in that TOP. Fought for ALL of you. So just simply b gracious.”
“Jennifer Hudson didn’t win!!!! Oscar winner!!! #memba??? ok. Take that exposure and let your light shine,” she said.
Velez fired a shot back in a tweet he subsequently deleted.
“That moment when an adult stoops down to the 3rd grade level…LOL grow up Hun, I’ve got songs to write. 🙂 #movingforward.” he said.
