Earlier this week, Jennifer Lopez abruptly canceled her performance at E11even nightclub in Miami in favor of spending some time at home. The club has now tapped Trinidad-born rapper Nicki Minaj to take the stage instead.

According to TMZ, while Jennifer had been due to pick $1 million for the night's performance, the club "scored a bargain" with Nicki, though it's unclear how much she will be paid. In addition, the "Starships" rapstress will be furnished with a pink Barbie hat by the club and MYX fusions moscato to quench her thirst. Nicki will also have DJ Irie as her special guest.

J.Lo previously announced she wouldn't be performing at the club. Her representatives said in a statement, "Citing personal and family time, Jennifer Lopez's manager Benny Medina has canceled her Miami appearance on New Year's Eve. Having attended the event last year, artist and management look forward to rescheduling the appearance at E11even in the future."

Tickets are available now. Nicki's fans must pay $300 to ring in the new year with her at the award-winning nightclub. It includes open bar from 9 P.M. to 11 P.M., passed hors d'oeuvres and champagne toast at midnight. Ticket prices will increase as the date of the event draws closer.
