Kelly Rowland is reportedly close to officially joining “The X Factor” for its upcoming third season.
The Destiny’s Child singer is near a deal to sit on the panel alongside Simon Cowell and Demi Lovato, according to Entertainment Weekly.
The magazine says Cowell could end up the only male judge this fall, with Paulina Rubio also in talks for one of the open spots.
