Since she’s practically a walking cartoon herself it rather makes sense that she would be in one. So with that, it was announced that rapper (that’s what she is isn’t she or so I’ve heard) Nicki Minaj and comedian JB Smoove (Curb Your Enthusiasm) will lend their voices to the next Ice Age animated film for Fox Animation and Blue Sky Studios

Joining the previously announced Ray Romano, Queen Latifah, Denis Leary, Jeremy Renner, John Leguizamo, Sean William Scott, Aziz Ansari, Wanda Sykes, Keke Palmer, Jennifer Lopez and Drake (Drake????) the new Ice Age film which will be called Ice Age: Continental Drift 3D and is scheduled to be released next summer on July 13, 2012.

Looks like we may have to see it. This film has more black people in its cast than 98% of most Hollywood movies
