"Chaka Khan is lobbying to become an X Factor USA judge, according to reports. The &amp;#039;I Feel For You&amp;#039; singer reportedly recently took an interest in joining Simon Cowell and LA Reid on The X Factor&amp;#039;s judging panel and instructed her representative to contact the show&amp;#039;s producers, reports TMZ.   Khan has apparently told several insiders that she&amp;#039;d be a perfect fit for The X Factor given her 40 years of experience in the music industry. It is not yet known if she is actually being considered by the Fox reality series&amp;#039;s producers. Brtiney Spears and Demi Lovato are both believed to be in final negotiations to join The X Factor as judges, but no confirmation has come yet. The two would be replacing Nicole Scherzinger and Paula Abdul, who departed The X Factor at the conclusion of the first season in December. The X Factor USA is due to return to Fox later this year.
