It seems Tulisa Contostavlos is eyeing up a return to The X Factor.
The singer-turned-talent-show-judge has been spending a lot of time with Simon Cowell’s partner Lauren Silverman, sparking rumours she could make a comeback.

A source told the Daily Star: “Lauren is a powerful ally when it comes to influencing Simon’s decision.
“Lauren’s really clicked with Tulisa. They have a lot of fun together. And Simon approves of their friendship as he’s fond of Tulisa too.”
The singer was a judge on the show for two years.
As well as enjoying lunch together, the former N-Dubz star holidayed with Lauren (and Simon) in the Caribbean last year.
There’s also the fact that she was on the show for two years and filled in for Mel B when she pulled out of last year’s final.
