Nicki Minaj is trying her hand at embodying another top diva — Adele! The 39-year-old rapper visited on Thursday, and revisited Adele's iconic cover of her verses in Kanye West's 2010 song, «Monster,» during a 2016  episode.

Host Corden then asked if Nicki, who had debuted her British accent earlier in the evening, could do her best Adele impression. «Alright, in order for me channel Adele, I sort of have to think like a Black lady in London,» Nicki quipped in an affected accent. «Because the thing is, my accent is sort of like a posh white lady, but with Adele I sort of have to transform.» The «Do We Have a Problem» emcee continued the impersonation by using her hands and saying, «She's always so expressive, right?»In addition to doing a killer impression of Adele, Nicki has something in common with the «Hello» singer beyond music — they're both moms.

Nicki has a one-and-a-half-year-old son, whom she's nicknamed «Papa Bear,» with husband Kenneth Petty. «I think motherhood has made me see more good in people, see more good in the universe, makes you a little bit more of a forgiving person,» Nicki said of how she's changed since becoming a mom. «Not that you forgive people and you want everybody around you, because I've forgiven people recently and not necessarily wanted them in my space.

But just have peace, move on, God bless you.» Nicki realizes just how fortunate she is, thanks to her little guy. «When I look at my son, I'm reminded that I'm so blessed.
