War Of Words... For Now

BARBARA WALTERS revealed on her TV talk show THE VIEW, that following reports new judge NICKI MINAJ cursed out CAREY on the set, threatening "If I had a gun, I'd shoot a b****," CAREY disclosed she had hired extra security.

YAHOO.COM reports, "CAREY is very concerned and not 'comfortable emotionally.' WALTERS said she doesn't actually think anything will happen but can't take a chance. 'NICKI said after the meeting, 'I love you but we may fight again.' MARIAH said, 'No I will not.'"
