Rap-Up.com || Nicki Minaj Meets ‘Big Crazy Barb’ on ‘American Idol’

She’s been talking about her for weeks. And on last night’s episode of “American Idol,” we were finally introduced to one of Nicki’s favorite contestants, Zoanette Johnson aka “Big Crazy Barb.”

The 19-year-old habilitation health specialist brought the “flava” with her over-the-top performance of the National Anthem during auditions in Oklahoma City.

“I’m a hugger, I’m a fighter, I’m a lover, and I’m an ‘American Idol,’” said the Tulsa native.

She hit all sorts of notes with her dramatic rendition and forgot the lyrics (Mariah reminded her), but still managed to score a golden ticket to Hollywood.

Randy was stunned, Keith fell out of his chair, and Mariah was left speechless. But it was Nicki who was most impressed.

“I love you. I am obsessed with you,” she told her. “Thank you for being a superstar.”

Zoanette’s next stop? Washington. “[Obama] better invite me to the White House,” said the sassy Zoanette, whose favorite “Idol” is Fantasia.

Watch Big Crazy Barb’s unforgettable audition below.

@jaida eschoe, hold up! i’m 30 and look 25 so don’t go there. she looks to be 40ish but maybe she had a rough life or hasn’t learned the art of moisturizing. but when i saw this i was crying, she was the highlight of the night that’s for sure. my husband was laughing too but when she got a pass to hollywood, he was like really? i told him, she’ll more than likely be eliminated during hollywood week.

@yooo, the same reason why Fantasia won…

When I was watching this audition last night, I couldn’t help but compare the two and say to myself…

“Fantasia non singing ass won, why can’t this chick since she sings almost identical to her plus is mad hilarious”

@yooo, she can sing though, she just needs to control her voice. She hit notes that only few people can.
