Sinitta is set to get her own panel show.

The 'So Macho' hitmaker is reportedly in talks to front a project called 'The Raw Deal' that will supposedly rival popular lunchtime series 'Loose Women' but rather than focusing on topics affecting the nation, it will shine a light on ethnic diversity and issues affecting black women.

A source told The Sun Online: "Sinitta has had several big meetings with channel execs. The idea is a very fresh one and the ladies have already recorded a pilot show. It could help to change the face of British TV."

Not much else is known about the new show but it's believed singer Shaznay Lewis, Sarah-Jane Crawford and model Talulah-Eve have been confirmed for the panel.

And it looks like this year could be a busy one for the 53-year-old singer as she admitted last year that she's desperate to claim a spot on the 'X Factor' panel alongside Simon Cowell - who she previously dated - when the show returns to screens.

She said at the time: "I do think it's time for me to be on the panel! I have to admit that no contracts have been sent to me yet, so sadly I have a feeling it's not going to happen this year."

And the brunette beauty is certainly no stranger to the singing competition as she regularly sits alongside Simon in the Judges' Houses round on the show - except last year.

The 57-year-old show boss said previously: "I know she's not happy [about being dropped at the last minute] but there's always next year."

But it's hardly surprising Sinitta was angry about the outcome as she's assisted the judges - either Simon or Louis Walsh - on the programme since it began in 2004. She's also featured heavily on the spin-off show 'The Xtra Factor' over the years and dished her opinions on acts.
