The 20-year-old singer came fourth in the reality competition last year, narrowly missing the finals.

Misha B's debut single Homerun entered the UK charts at No.11 last week and is followed by her debut album later this year.

Minaj will play across the UK and Ireland between October and November of this year on her Pink Friday: Reloaded Tour. Her original location of Dublin's Olympia Theatre was recently cancelled and moved to the larger O2 Arena in the Docklands to accommodate huge demand for tickets.

As previously announced, American rapper Tya will act as main support on the tour throughout Europe.
