Janet Jackson has officially turned down a judges seat on the next season of X FACTOR! Janet told The Insider that her upcoming schedule , just wont allow it.

Well, you can officially cut that list by one, because Janet Jackson tells TheInsider.com that she is “very flattered that X Factor let me know that I was being considered for next season, but it just wouldn’t be possible.”

Citing a previous commitment to her Number Ones Up Close and Personal Tour (which kicks off again this summer) and Lionsgate (the studio behind Tyler Perry’s movies), Janet simply felt taking on a TV gig would be “unrealistic” at this time.

I was really  looking forward to Janet being a judge. I wonder what 2 ladies will fill the seats left vacant by Paula Abdul and Nicole Scherzinger. I’m pretty sure Britney Spears will take one, but what about the other???
