The father of two shockingly revealed that, while he’s taking precautionary measures to keep his family safe, he thinks their fight was all for publicity.
“It’s not as serious as everyone is making it,” Nick said on Oct. 10. “I don’t know anyone who can stand with a camera phone in front of the monitor and it just magically ends up on TMZ.”
Elisabeth Hasselbeck asked Nick, 32, to clarify if he was, in fact, implying that the video leaked to TMZ of Mariah Carey and Nicki Minaj fighting was a publicity stunt, and he responded, “Yeah, I think that happened.”
Hmm! TMZ published video footage of Nicki on Oct. 2, clearly enraged, yelling, “I told them, I’m not f***ing putting up with her f***ing highness over there.” Nicki also allegedly threatened to shoot Mariah.
If their fight was in fight all for the cameras — it definitely worked and caught America’s attention!
