Why 'American Idol' Chose Nicki Minaj to Judge

Nicki’s ‘Barbies’


Nicki Minaj doesn’t just have fans, she has a legion of dedicated ‘Barbies’ that literally mock and mimic her every lip curl, outrageous hair choice and ridiculous saying. With that in mind the Barbies who range in age from preteen to adult could easily up Idol’s ratings and bring down the age demographic. Last season the inclusion of Steven Tyler, 64, and J. Lo, 43, was in no way appealing to younger viewers.  Idol producers are no doubt trying to reel in a younger crowd.
