Nicki Minaj Confirms She’s Leaving “American Idol”
Published at
Jason LaVeris//FimMagic(LOS ANGELES) — Hours after Mariah Carey announced that she would be leaving American Idolafter one season, her onscreen nemesis did the same. Nicki Minaj will also not be returning to the Fox show for a second season.
In a tweet, the rapper wrote, “Thank you American Idolfor a life changing experience! Wouldn’t trade it for the world! Time to focus on the Music!!! Mmmuuuaahhh!!!”
Now that Mariah and Nicki have both confirmed their departures, and Randy Jackson did so earlier this month, this leaves Keith Urban as the only Idol season 12 judge who hasn’t announced he’s leaving…yet.
