E! News has announced Minaj is set to star in three reality specials for broadcast on E! starting in November.

Minaj -- who recently inked a deal to serve as a judge on American Idol's upcoming twelfth season -- will give viewers the chance to have a behind-the-scenes look into her personal and professional life in the specials, E! News reported Thursday.

The specials will also reportedly include some footage of the singer and rapper that has never been seen before.

E! News confirmed Minaj's reality show deal after Minaj did an interview in which she dodged questions about rumors she could be starring in her own reality TV series.

"That I'm going to keep a secret for now. I thought I'd never do something like that, not saying I am still. I'm still considering," Minaj told Perez Hilton in a recent interview, according to MTV News.

"But, I will say that I find the more people see, is the more they understand, and then it's the more they like you. If you only have such one-dimensional things to go off of like rumors, then you kind of never get to know the artist. When you pull them in your world, they see you as a real person. I'm not running away from it anymore. I'm just like, 'You know what? This is my life.'"
