I got approached by all the shows. [Husband Nick Cannon] said I should do it because it’s the top, it’s the cream of the crop. And I felt like, ‘Do the show that’s produced massive stars who have had major careers.’"And when asked about the stigma surrounding the hip-hop world in relation to singing competitions, Nicki was completely candid.The Superbass singer told the mag:“[There's] a judgmental culture in hip-hop…sometimes you are afraid of being too famous because it’s almost, like, is that even cool? Being that accessible, someone you see on TV every week? I never pictured myself as that type of person. I’m still surprised that I decided to do it.”Hmmmm inneresting.What these two ladies need in their careers is a challenge though, and they will definitely get that on Idol!!We can’t wait to see what they’ve got to offer in just less than two weeks!!![Image via WENN.]
