NICKI Minaj‘s deal with Pepsi is stalling her American Idol contract talks.

According to the New York Post, execs want to announce Minaj as a judge as soon as possible, before the auditions start filming in the
next week or two.

But because Pepsi sponsors Minaj’s tour and Idol is sponsored by Coca-Cola, bosses are hashing out how to get around the carbonated drinks dilemma.

“Producers want to see that drama between Nicki and Mariah Carey. It’ll make for good TV,” a source said.
“Producers had hoped to get Enrique Iglesias, but he’s a private guy and doesn’t want to expose his life to the show.”

Recent reports claimed Mariah is furious that Nicki will be joining her on the show.

“Mariah was led to believe she would be the only woman on the judge’s panel,” a source said.

“Some bosses believe it’s a mistake to have 2 women and a man on the panel, and a 4th male judge would be necessary.”
