Nicki Minaj has kicked off the promo tour for her latest album, the insanely anticipated “Roman Reloaded.” She performed her new single “Starships” on the results show on American Idol.

At the end of the performance, which was, as always, very energetic and very well received by the public, the rapper joked with host Ryan Seacrest about the possibility of coming back on AI but, this time, in a different capacity.

“I was hoping maybe I could come back and be a guest judge. JLo, can you scoot over a little bit?” Nicki said.

To this, Lopez replied, “I don't know if there's enough room for both of us,” also joking.

Check out the performance in the player below. As usual, enjoy!
