Nicki Minaj To Perform On 'Saturday Night Live'

Nicki Minaj has been tapped as the musical guest for an upcoming episode of "Saturday Night Live."

According to The Hollywood Reporter, the Young Money MC will join "Social Network" star Jesse Eisenberg, who will serve as host, for the show's January 29 broadcast.

THR also reported that Linkin Park will perform during the February 5 episode, which is set to feature hosting duties from former "SNL" castmember Dana Carvey.

Known for her out-of-the-box fashion and manic rhymes, Minaj will likely perform her new single, "Moment 4 Life," featuring Drake, as she brought the tune to her appearance on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" earlier this week. Eisenberg's and Minaj's upcoming appearance marks the first time for both on the sketch show.

"SNL" isn't the only treat Minaj has up her sleeve for her fans. Minaj recently teamed up with Rihanna to shoot the music video for another one of the MC's new singles, "Fly." When E! News asked about the concept for the upcoming clip, Nicki remained tight-lipped, saying, "We're going to save the world in more ways than one with the video, and that's all I can say about that."

However, it was the duo's TwitPics that sent the Internet ablaze when rumors circulated that Nicki and Rihanna were living together. The MC took to Ryan Seacrest's radio show to clear the air. "I don't know where people got this really insane, hilarious, random rumor that she and I were living together," she said. "We just shot the video for a song I have on the album I have called 'Fly,' and when I saw her, the first thing I said was, 'So, did you hear we're living together?' and we just started cracking up laughing. She was like, 'Yo, I can't believe that people are, like, this ridiculous. So we TwitPic'd ourselves, and she put it on Twitter and said 'Me and Nicki at our new pad' or something."
