Nicki Minaj Attacks Steven Tyler for "Racist" Critique

FUSE TV - Nicki Minaj Attacks Steven Tyler for "Racist" Critique

Taking a break from her characteristically cool-headed persona, Nicki Minaj is once again lashing out at an American Idol judge on Twitter. But Mariah Carey needn't get Barbara Walters back on the phone: This time, former judge Steven Tyler is receiving the Wrath of Roman.

It all started when Tyler (not so innocently) slammed Minaj's potential as a judge, saying, “If it was Bob Dylan, Nicki Minaj would have had him sent to the cornfield!" Which, as it turned out, was not the wisest decision given Minaj's offense-as-self-defense tendencies.

In a series of hot-blooded tweets, she branded him a racist, a hypocrite and suggested he start wearing a "no coloreds allowed" shirt. Also, she got pretty cross with him. Check out the tweets below and let us know if you think she has a point or if she's overreacting in the comments below.
