Nicki Minaj Joining American Idol?

Nicki Minaj, Ninja Nicki, Roman. Sounds like the whole cast will be joining American Idol. According to US Weekly, two sources have confirmed Minaj plans to sit alongside Mariah Carey at the judges table. Nicki also seemed to leave a hint when she tweeted this, "Ok barbz, getting another x-ray. When I get back, I'll have a surprise for u. *kisses u, hugs u*."

Meanwhile Nick Jonas confirmed he is in the running when he tweeted out, "I am being considered to be a judge on American Idol, and it would be a dream come true if it happens."

So who fills what role? Mariah Carey must be Paula Abdul. She just seems far to sweet to put anyone down. I think that makes Nick Jonas Randy Jackson DAWG!, and Nicki Minaj gets to spit some insults from the Simon Cowell seat.

Yes I know my Idol references are slightly outdated, but did Jennifer Lopez and Steven Tyler even hold the seats long enough to keep them warm? And don't even think about mentioning Ellen.
