27 Apr – Rapper and "American Idol" judge Nicki Minaj is in final negotiations to star alongside Cameron Diaz in the upcoming revenge comedy "The Other Woman." In the film, Cameron Diaz realizes that she's 'the other woman' for a man, played by Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, who is already married to Leslie Mann, who plays his wife. Kate Upton is also attached to the project and will play another woman who is having an affair with Coster-Waldau's character.
Minaj will play Diaz's opinionated assistant at the law firm, a woman on her third marriage. The film will be Minaj's first foray into acting, after she voiced a character in last year's "Ice Age: Continental Drift." Her time on reality show "American Idol" may be coming to an end after this current season as recent reports indicated that the show is looking to shake up the entire panel by the end of this season, so this could be the reason for Minaj's leap into the film industry.
