Tulisa Contostavlos has admitted that she'd love to return to The X Factor, having been a judge on the show in the 2011 and 2012 series. After winning the series with her group Little Mix, who have gone on to become the most successful winners on the show, Tulisa left the show after being on the panel with Gary Barlow, Louis Walsh, Kelly Rowland and Nicole Scherzinger.

During an appearance on Good Morning Britain earlier today, the 31-year-old - who found fame as part of the pop group N-Dubz with her cousin Dappy and friend Fazer - revealed she would never rule out a return to the series.

Speaking to presenters Kate Garraway and Adil Ray, Tulisa said, "It’s definitely something I wouldn’t write off. It’s incredible, I’ve loved being part of helping people with their careers. From Little Mix to Ella Henderson, it’s something I love and enjoy doing."

Fans of the singer were over the moon to see her back in the public eye, with many taking to Twitter to share their happiness. One wrote, 'Great to see you back, such a talent,' and another added, 'So good to have you back!'
