Days after Mariah Carey was badly cussed out by a ranting Nicki Minaj, and the pair were forced to pose together for this newly distributed ‘American Idol’ promo. Making sure not to stand next to each other and sandwiching themselves between Ryan Seacrest, the feuding pair put on their fake smiles and got on with it. After all, the show must go on.

Carey is giving us classy legendary diva, while Minaj continues to look like a gimmicky clown. Truth is, she is actually a pretty lady but makes herself look hideous. Fox also announced the premiere date for Idol’s new season, which will run for two days: Wednesday, Jan 16th and Jan 17th. Will YOU be tuning in?
