ABC FAMILY ANNOUNCES ONLINE OPEN CASTING CALL FOR YOUNG NICKI MINAJ

The Network Gave a Series Commitment to the Nicki Minaj Scripted Comedy Last Month

Burbank, CA (November 2, 2015) - For the first time in network history, ABC Family will hold online open auditions as it begins its search for a young Nicki Minaj to star in the upcoming single-camera comedy series based on the rapper's life. ABC Family is becoming Freeform in January 2016.

ABC Family is searching for a talented girl between the ages of 11-13 to play the younger version of Grammy Award-nominated and multi-platinum superstar Nicki Minaj. Minaj will executive produce the half-hour comedy series (which received a series commitment order on September 29, 2015) based on her family's immigration from Trinidad in the early 1990s. The show will focus on Minaj's childhood in Queens and the personal and musical evolution that led to her eventual rise to stardom. The series will shoot in New York.

To access the script and upload audition video, download the free Disney Applause app, select "ABC Family's Online Open Call" and follow instructions. Disney Applause is available from the Apple App Store and Google Play. All materials will be accepted through Sunday, November 15th.

This casting call is not a contest, job offer or a guarantee of employment. There is never a fee to participate in an ABC Family Talent Search.
