Carey had apparently been goading Minaj for hours, sources said, ultimately calling the songstress a "b---h." Check out these other notable celebrity feuds.
Anderson Cooper and Star Jones. Cooper recently said he wasn’t happy with the way Star Jones reacted to his announcement last summer in which he declared publicly for the first time that he is gay and called her hypocritical. “I seem to recall her hawking her wedding every single day to get free products when she was on 'The View' and I seem to recall her lying about her gastric bypass surgery and making everybody else lie about it as well,” he said.
Amanda Bynes and Lindsay Lohan. Amanda Bynes better not look to Lindsay Lohan for sympathy during her recent troubles. The former Nickelodeon star may have had her car impounded by police after she was pulled over on a suspended license earlier this summer, but Lohan, who served 14 days in jail in 2010 after violating her probation in her own 2007 DUI case, seems to think Bynes got let off a little too easy. "Why did I get put in jail and a Nickelodeon star has had NO punishment(s) so far?" Lohan tweeted on Sept. 16.
Jon Hamm and Kim Kardashian. The 'Mad Men' star, who recently called the reality TV bobblehead a 'f---ing idiot,' recently made yet another mention at the brunette bombshell's expense. "The sexy thing is so ephemeral and meaningless other than in the world of selling magazines," Hamm tells the British magazine. "Who cares, when it's reduced to just that? You might as well be a Kardashian and have a sex tape."
Joan Rivers and Chelsea Handler. Rivers has said of Handler, "She's an ordinary girl that was f--king somebody high up in the industry and they gave her a break and she's doing okay." Handler, 36, dated 56-year-old Ted Harbert, the CEO of Comcast Entertainment Group, for four years before the two split in 2010. Handler's response? "Joan Rivers? What the f--k do I care about Joan Rivers?" she shot back when asked about her reaction to Rivers' recent criticism of her.
Star Jones and NeNe Leakes. After stating on "Ellen" that she and Star Jones "are okay right now," Leakes went on to dish some harsh criticism. "I don't think she's easy to get along with," the reality star began, starting off mildly. "She's a tough girl." Then Leakes added about Jones, "She is bossy; she is manipulative, conniving. And I'm not even being funny. I think that is real. I honestly think that is who she is."
Joy Behar and Snooki. The 'Jersey Shore' ultimately apologized for her scathing parody of the talk show maven. Appearing on "The Wendy Williams Show," Snooki explained that the video – in which she pretended to be Behar and made derogatory comments – was intended to be a joke. 'Everyone took it too seriously, so I took the video down,' she said. Behar agreed to make her own peace. 'I found the apology quite sobering,' she admitted, "although maybe that's not the right word."
Bristol Palin and Keith Olbermann. Olbermann called her 'the worst person in the world' on MSNBC for her position on abstinence, prompting the "Dancing With the Stars" alum to post a letter to the MSNBC host on her page to defend her position as an abstinence advocate, despite having a baby as a teen. "What Mr. Olbermann lacks in originality he makes up for with insincere incredulity."
Shia LaBeouf and Frankie Muniz. During a radio show interview, Shia LaBeouf hurled an insult at Frankie Muniz's way, reigniting a years-long feud between the young actors. The "Wall Street 2" star deflected the credit for his box office success, saying, "While that's flattering, you could have put Frankie Muniz into any of the movies I've been in and those movies still would've still been No. 1.' Muniz managed to give a retort by taking to Twitter. "Dear Shia Labeouf. It's getting creepy the fact that you can't stop talking about me. It's been 12 years now. I don't know you. Thanks,' he tweeted.
Naomi Campbell and Mia Farrow. The actress contradicted Campbell's claim at the war crimes trial of former Liberian President Charles Taylor that she had no idea who gave her a bag of "dirty-looking pebbles" that turned out to be blood diamonds. Farrow said she and Campbell met Taylor at a 1997 reception in South Africa hosted by Nelson Mandela. Campbell, who had to be subpoenaed to testify in early August, said she didn't know who Taylor was when she met him at the reception.
