Tulisa Contostavlos is reportedly desperate to return to the judging panel for 'The X Factor'.
The former N-Dubz singer has enjoyed several conversations with X Factor's executive producer Richard Holloway, the Daily Star reported.
According to sources, Tulisa has gone to Barbados to woo Simon Cowell herself and make sure he doesn't say no.
Music and TV mogul Cowell has previously shown huge faith in Tulisa, giving her a job as Louis Walsh's helper at last year's Judges' Houses.
