Rappers Nicki Minaj and will.i.am guests on The Cleveland SHow

Rappers Nicki Minaj and will.i.am are getting animated for the new season of US comedy The Cleveland Show.
The artists have loaned their voices to an episode titled Menace II Secret Society, which features Kanye West as the leader of an underground cult, and they will also appear alongside cartoon versions of singer Bruno Mars and hip-hop musician Ahmir 'Guestlove' Thompson.
The star-studded season four is currently being screened in the U.S and joins the UK television line up soon.
West is no stranger to the hit show - he previously voiced the character of Kenny West, the coolest kid in fictional Stoolbend, in 2010. It's great when we find celebrities taking part in animated series. The Cleveland show has somewhat lacked behind on this.. essential part of adult cartoons. But now The Cleveland Show is to play catchup in Series 4 and now joins the club of The Simpsons, American Dad, South Park and Family guy with the evoloution of their celebrity cast list. 

Some may call it product placement, others a shameless attempt to boost ratings. To those people we say NEIN! We like to see our fave celebrities, that's what we want and thus, that is what we get!
