Stars really crack me up.  Listen to this.  Following the X-Factor bloodbath (i.e. Nicole, Paula, and Steve - getting the axe) Simon Cowell needs to find replacements - fast!

And he's reportedly in talks with Janet Jackson to fill one of those seats.  Jackson however, told Anderson Cooper that she is NOT in talks to be on the show.  

But actually, I think she'd make the perfect addition to the show,  I mean, she kinda of has the "X-Factor" herself, and she's been in the game for over twenty years.

FH is also hearing that rocker Pink is also in the running for a seat at the judges table.  I think those two would fit in on the show perfectly.

FORECAST: Janet I'm giving you sunny skies.  Hey it's not like you need the money, but the extra exposure would be great for you too.
