US Magazine reports that Mariah Carey and Nicki Minaj were in talks to join The Voice spring cycle:
Before Mariah Carey and Nicki Minaj signed the dotted line on their American Idol contracts, they considered taking seats on The Voice’s stage alongside Adam Levine and Blake Shelton.
A show source tells Us Weekly that both the legendary vocalist and the “Starships” rapper were in talks to join The Voice as team coaches, as producers searched for artists to replace Christina Aguilera and Cee-Lo Green. (Show insiders confirmed to Us Monday that neither coach will take part in the hit show’s upcoming season, while also revealing that Usher and Shakira have signed on to take their places.)
I wonder why Mariah and Nicki ultimately went with Idol?
