She was NOT faking it!

Though the MTV VMAs are known for many controversial moments — most are pre-planned! So after Nicki Minaj , 32, called out Miley Cyrus, 22, on stage for talking smack about her to the press— everyone thought their little feud was scripted.

Turns out that's not the case!

An Us Weekly source claims, “Nicki was livid with Miley and decided to air her feelings onstage,” adding, “The anger was very real and not a pre-planned bit at all."

The "Anaconda" rapper received her award for Best Hip Hop Video and during her acceptance speech said, “And now…back to this b-tch that had a lot to say about me in the press. Miley, what's good?"

In a recent interview, Miley commented on Nicki's twitter fight with Taylor Swift, saying, "It’s not very polite. I think there’s a way you speak to people with openness and love."

Though we thought we would see Taylor Swift and Nicki fighting — the pair performed together and are friends again. Can’t say the same for Miley.

There's always next year!
