Nicki Minaj

If Nicki Minaj has seemed almost unrecognizable in the past few weeks, well, that's the point. Minaj has been revamping her look to be more vamp and a lot less tramp, and she ditched the entire team that brought her technicolor nightmare to life in the first place.

He-Man, you Nicki Minaj. Get it? Get it? Yeah, you got it.

After a three-year partnership, Nicki Minaj's hair stylist (read: weave and wig stylist) has moved on to tease and spray fake Christmas tree snow on other celebrities who will allow him to properly express his art. Seems Minaj just didn't understand his deep dark wig-making soul.

Nicki Minaj, is that you? The singer, rapper and wearer of crazy outfits performed a sound check on her E! special without the aid of makeup, making it hard to recognize the opinionated performer.

Mariah Carey already threw some major shade at Nicki Minaj during her Barbara Walters interview, but now the ladies are struggling not to throw chairs at one another onstage. At a recent 'American Idol' press conference, Mimi and the Harajuku Barbie complimented one another -- and sounded really, really forced.

Seems that feud (or publicity stunt, depending on your level of cynicism) between Mariah Carey and Nicki Minaj isn't over just yet, because during a 'Nightline' interview with Barbara Walters, Mariah threw major shade at her fellow 'American Idol' judge. Meow, indeed.

High up on the list of things that shouldn't concern Nicki Minaj: becoming “too famous.” Yet the singer is incredibly worried that her new role as judge on 'American Idol' could do just that, even though it opens her up to whole a new audience of exactly no one since 'Idol' watchers already know who she is.

What would a Twitter feud list be without someone throwing around the claim that someone else is a racist? Not much of a list, that's what. So that's what happened when Nicki Minaj misconstrued something Steven Tyler said about her upcoming stint as an 'American Idol' judge.

To celebrate sticking it to those pesky Mayans and living to see 2013, Beyonce and Nicki Minaj will both make appearances at parties on New Year's Eve. Beyonce will make $4 million at hers, and Minaj - who can't seem to keep her boobs in her shirt - will score a $5 million paycheck. Maybe because she can't keep her boobs in her shirt.

At her Pink Friday fragrance launch in Sydney, Australia on Nov. 29, Nicki Minaj looked a bit like Little Bo Peep -- after a long, strange acid trip.

Steven Tyler took to Canadian television to apologize to upcoming 'American Idol' judge Nicki Minaj for some comments he made that she took as racist even though no one in their right mind would.

In addition to her other much-publicized feud with fellow 'American Idol' judge Mariah Carey, seems Nicki Minaj is now squaring off against a former judge: Steven Tyler. Because yeah, she's that kind of crazy.

Nicki Minaj showed up super fashionably late to her own record release party on Tuesday night, only to be told she couldn't enter due to overcrowding.

Nigel Lythgoe, producer of 'American Idol' (and just about every other FOX reality show), insists that smackdown between Mariah Carey and Nicki Minaj was very real and wasn't conjured up by the publicity-hungry suits at the network. Not because they'd never do such a thing, but because the timing is way off.

Stevie Nicks is from an era when you actually had to have, you know, talent to become a musical star. So she has little patience for the Nicki-come-latelys of dubious chops -- especially when they mouth off to established singers. The legendary Fleetwood Mac icon recently weighed in on the epic 'American Idol' battle between judges Mariah Carey and Nicki Minaj, saying that if the rainbow-hued pop

A while back, there were murmurings that some diva-licious sparring was already happening between Mariah Carey and Nicki Minaj on the set of 'American Idol.' At the time, the public was given a gentle pat on the head and told that no, none of those rumors were true so we should just run along and play because, really, Mommy and Daddy still loved each other so everything was fine just fine. But now

The next season of the waning talent search show ‘American Idol’ began taping on Sunday, and after working their way down a long list of possible judges, the producers ended up with a panel that seems to include one too many divas -- and we can only hope the fireworks make it to air.
