Nicki Minaj Is Not Following In Lil Mama’s Footsteps

Looks like Nicki Nicki is still making it rain on them hoes doing what we know her to do best: rapping, singing and inspiring Barbies, Kens and Lil Kim stans everywhere.

Which means no TV competition judging for her. TMZ reports there are no Nicki Minaj/Simon Cowell/X-Factor negotiations going on.

Rumors of Minaj’s participation on the show have been spreading like wildfire … with Simon Cowell himself fanning the flames … but sources connected to Minaj tell us she won’t be a judge on the show … adding, “There’s nothing going on with [X Factor].”

Earlier this week, Cowell told reporters that many of the names rumored to be in talks with the show were most likely leaked from his own company in an effort to stir up interest in the show.

Jessica Simpson and Paula Abdul were among the rumored candidates for the judge’s positions … but so far, no word on where they stand with the show.

We should’ve guess the former head of Island/Def Jam and a rapper would have been too much Urban for X-Factor.
