Backstabbing At ‘American Idol’ Fierce
The Globe reports fighting was bitter on ‘American Idol’, including the two co-hosts going at each other as well as the show’s 10 finalists. Nikki McKibbon seemed to draw the most fire from her fellow contestants, most notably from Ryan Starr. While Nikki was envious of Ryan’s hot and toned body, Ryan was jealous of Nikki’s self confidence. An insider said, “They bickered and hurled insults at each other constantly. One day, they almost got into a fistfight and production assistants had to step in and pull them apart!”
Nikki’s stunt later in the contest though had her fellow finalists fuming. “You should have heard the groans from the other singers when she had her little boy run to the stage and hug her,” a source revealed. “It was the most shameless, outrageous vote grabbing. Simon threw daggers. Kelly sarcastically said, ‘How sweet’ and rolled her eyes. But it worked for Nikki.”
The fighting didn’t stop there, as Tamyra Gray and Christina Christian also had their claws out. “When Christina got bumped, she threw her support behind Kelly,” said an insider. “She wanted the wheels to fall off Tamyra’s wagon and she eventually got her wish.” Tamyra didn’t make friends with her fellow contestants with her condescending attitude. “She believed that she had the most talent,” said the source.
