Nicki Minaj and Keith Urban Announced As New American Idol Judges!

by Lauren on September 17th, 2012

There has been quite the change up over at American Idol, but Fox has finally named its new judges. Here's hoping that a fresh new batch of superstars can breathe some life back into this talent competition. For the past few seasons, the show has been a revolving door of judges, with only host Ryan Seacrest and voice of reason Randy Jackson remaining constant.

Earlier this year, the show bid farewell to former judges Jennifer Lopez and Steven Tyler, while Mariah Carey secured the first spot at the new judges' table. Since then, there has been so much speculation as to who would join her in finding new singing talent. There have been multiple musicians thrown in the hat, from Nick Jonas to P. Diddy, but now Mariah's counterparts have been chosen. I wonder what she thinks of them though…

American Idol Offers Enrique Iglesias A Judging Spot

by Melissa on September 9th, 2012

Is the summer-long drama surrounding the American Idol judges finally coming to an end? Nicki Minaj and Keith Urban are reportedly joining Mariah Carey on the judging panel. Randy Jackson is moving into a mentoring role.

American Idol is dead set on four judges for the upcoming season ~~because it worked so well the last time~~, presumably to compete with newer and hipper singing competitions like The Voice and The X Factor, so there is still one vacant spot.

Still, the end might be near, because Enrique Iglesias is currently sitting on an offer from American Idol for about $4 million. Coincidentally, Enrique just wrapped up a tour with former Idol judge Jennifer Lopez.

Mariah Carey Is Furious Over Nicki Minaj Joining American Idol; Vote For Your Pick Of Judges

by Reality Tea on August 21st, 2012

I guess I was right yesterday when I questioned whether there was enough room at the American Idol judges’ table for the egos of both Mariah Carey and Nicki Minaj.

Mariah is stamping her feet and throwing a divatantrum over news reports yesterday all but confirming that Nicki Minaj is ready to sign on with the show. According to TMZ, Mariah was promised she’d be the only female judge and she’s now livid at the thought of Nicki joining her.

There are still a lot of unknowns about the upcoming season of AI. The show runners still don’t know if Randy Jackson is returning, who is filling the vacant seat(s) and they’re still tossing around the possibility of adding a fourth judge.

Hold tight, Mariah! Don’t huff off to your dressing room and pack up your Hello Kitty collection just yet! Things could change twelve more times this week!

TELL US – DO YOU THINK THIS IS THE SHAKE-UP THE SHOW NEEDS? OR IS IT TOO LITTLE, TOO LATE?

Report: Nicki Minaj Is The Newest American Idol Judge!?

by Reality Tea on August 20th, 2012

American Idol sure is milking this empty judge chair situation for all its worth! A new day, a new rumor surrounding who will be signed on in the last(?) remaining seat. Let’s recap the rumored judges so far: Brad Paisley, Nick Jonas, Pharrell, and P.Diddy. And I’m probably forgetting a few! If anything, it’s been a great way to bring publicity to each of the rumored musicians, as well as the show.

The latest news is that Nicki Minaj is just about to sign on the dotted line. Us Weekly claims to have two sources verifying that Nicki’s deal is a sure thing. “I’m not sure the deal is completely done yet, but yes, she is definitely doing it. A few more slight things to sign off on but it is happening.”

Mariah Carey and Nicki? I’m just not sure if there’s enough room for both egos at that table? Do you think she’s been ‘in the game’ long enough to be of value to the show?

TELL US – IS NICKI A GOOD FIT?

BBW’s Tami Roman Discusses Bullying With Wendy Williams, Says Her Daughters Were “Embarrassed” By Her Behavior!

by Lauren on June 4th, 2012

It was the bullying heard ’round the internet (although the same could be said about the entire fourth season of Basketball Wives), and Tami Roman is still discussing her vile behavior towards cast mate Kesha Nichols when the women were vacationing in Tahiti. Tami recently went on the Wendy Williams Show to share her side of the story. Spin, spin, spin, ladies!

Tami begins the interview by addressing the situation and feeling badly for how she acted–or in her mind, reacted. Basically she cites Kesha’s gossip that viewers didn’t see (isn’t that convenient?) as explanation for how she shouldn’t have been acting. Follow? It’s hard, I know.

Tami tries to defend herself while feeling bad for her behavior. She tells Wendy, “It was a difficult time because the truth of the matter is I can’t let what someone is saying behind the scenes…what they’re doing…how they’re acting drive me to that level of frustration but a lot of that you guys didn’t really see.”

BBW’s Tami Roman “Apologizes,” Deactivates Twitter and Evelyn Responds to Backlash; Plus Royce Confirms She’s Still With Dezmon!

by Lauren on May 18th, 2012

It was the most disturbing and horrendous episode I’ve ever had to blog about, and I watch some seriously trashy television. Y’all know I have to be talking about the most recent Basketball Wives, right? Naturally viewers were outraged as they watched Tami Roman bully fellow cast mate Kesha Nichols in a drunken tirade while vacationing in Tahiti. While I was certain that an apology would ensue just for the sake of damage control, I wasn’t holding my breath that it would be sincere. Bingo!

On Tuesday, Tami took to twitter to apologize for her horrendous behavior to Kesha. However, presumably due to backlash, she has since deleted her twitter account. According to newsone.com, the first apology tweet stated, I’m not proud of my behavior, but I own up to it and face it. I do apologize 2my family, my friends, my kids & 2 my cast members—Tami Roman (@TamiRoman)” followed by “I just landed in NYC, but I did catch 2nites episode on the plane. As I said earlier, this was BAD, wrong & immature-I apologize…—Tami Roman (@TamiRoman).”
