Season 11 “American Idol” champion Phillip Phillips stopped by the “omg! Insider” set to sound off about Nicki Minaj’s late entrance on Wednesday night’s live taping of the show. The singer, who no longer has to worry about critiques from the judges stated, “It’s not my problem anymore.” Phillips emphasized that at this stage of “American Idol,” it is America that votes for the winner and not the judges, saying “it’s not her vote, so you gotta remember that.” Phillip's debut album "The Other Side of the Moon" is in stores now and his headlining tour kicks off on March 19th.
