线话娱乐英语趣闻：麻辣鸡 Nicki Minaj

Nicki Minaj is set to be a judge for 'American Idol,' joining musical heavyweight Mariah Carey.

Pull up a chair, because Nicki Minaj may just be joining the judges' table over at "American Idol"! The colorful female emcee, 29, is reportedly already set to be the latest addition to Fox's hit singing competition show, a source tells Us Weekly. "I'm not sure the deal is completely done yet, but yes, she is definitely doing it," the source told Us. "A few more things to sign off on but it is happening." Another source told the magazine that Minaj is "100% confirmed to judge 'American Idol.'"

As of now, reps for both the network and the singer have not commented on the speculation. If the rumors are true, then Minaj will be adding to a high-caliber panel that already includes singing legend Mariah Carey and has names like Pharrell Williams and Nick Jonas up for consideration. Both Minaj and Carey, 42, are native New Yorkers. Minaj hails from Jamaica, Queens, and Carey was born and raised on Long Island.

Previous judges Jennifer Lopez and Steven Tyler announced that they were leaving the show earlier this summer, sending viewers into a frenzy wondering what musicians would be brought in to fill the void.

Carey announced her involvement in July, and since then, other names have been floated by the franchise, including Sean "Diddy" Combs, Adam Lambert,英语培训, Miley Cyrus, Brad Paisley and Pink. "What you've got to realize is you've got to create a panel that gels," show producer Nigel Lythgoe told E! News. "A panel that makes sense together. It's not just about three individuals."
