HOLLYWOOD, March 31 (UPI) -- "American Idol" judge Nicki Minaj blasted recently ousted contestant Devin Velez on Twitter, telling him to "just simply b gracious" he got the opportunity.
Velez was sent home on the singing competition Thursday after he sang the Perry Como hit "It's Impossible." Minaj slammed his Wednesday performance of The Four Tops' "I Can't Help Myself (Sugar Pie, Honey Bunch)" with fellow contestants Lazaro Arbos and Burnell Taylor.
