Nicki Minaj Quotes Herself in ‘American Idol’ Season 12 Promo

Oh, Nicki Minaj. From the drama to the promos, she remains the talk of 'American Idol' -- and to think an episode hasn't even aired yet! In this new Season 12 promo spot, which is all of 30 seconds, the platinum blonde wig wearer quotes her own lyrics.

She says no one can touch the show -- take that 'The Voice' and 'X Factor' -- and then talks to the assembled hopefuls, saying they need to make it their "moment for life." So, she just quoted her own song 'Moment 4 Life.'

Hey, shameless self-promo is self-promo nonetheless, and Minaj is a master of it. You can't blame a girl for looking out for numero uno. Just remember that 'Idol' is about the idols, not the judges...
