It was all love between Mariah Carey and Nicki Minaj when the “American Idol” judging panel sat down recently to discuss the upcoming season — despite reports that the two ladies have been snippy with each other since day one of filming.

Mariah Carey sat down with “The Hollywood Reporter” to dish on her new stint as an “American Idol” judge, which officially began with Sunday’s first season-12 auditions in New York.

Jennifer Lopez is offering advice to Mariah Carey, who will be replacing her at the “American Idol” judges’ table next season.

TMZ is reporting that “American Idol” judge Mariah Carey hung up the phone when she was informed that Nicki Minaj is also being considered for the panel.

Alright, one “American Idol” judge seat filled, one more to go. Mariah Carey is officially the new soft-spoken judge of the group, but who will join her.
