What was the worst part about being a judge onAmerican Idol?
the late-show host asked.
We got some good memes.
Carey judgedAmerican Idolduring the infamous twelve season, which includedher verbal sparring partner Nicki Minaj.
It was bleak, darling, she admitted to Kimmel on Wednesday night.
It was a bleak experience.
We dont have to go back there, but there were some good hairstyles.
Well stick to the positive.
If I didnt, I should have, Carey shaded.
No, Im sorry.
Is he doing it?
Is it going well?
Carey had previously addressed her experience on the singing competition show in very blunt ways.
I hated it, she said ina 2013 interview.
I was led to believe I was the first person signed on.
They gave me a nice dangling monetary moment.
I was like, okay, Randy Jackson will be there, Ive known him forever.
This isnt a big deal.
This will be nothing.
But it wasnt that.
It was like hell.
It was like going to work every day in hell with Satan.
I was just saying, I didnt have the worlds best experience.
