She has also been linked to the new U.S. version of X Factor, with representatives for Simon Cowell saying the rumours are 'early speculation'.
‘Simon thinks Nicki is fantastic. She’s sassy, she looks great and she has bags of personality’, as source told the New York Post last month.
Nicki's CD Pink Friday debuted in November at No. 2 on Billboard's 200 album chart and it climbed to the number one position several weeks later.

It has since sold more than one million copies and her single Moment 4 Life is currently No. 3 on the hip-hop charts.
Right now, Nicki is touring with her mentor Lil Wayne.
