She's got the sex factor! Kelly Rowland wows in tight red dress to dine at Hollywood hotspot Madeo for second time in a week

She’s preparing for her X Factor USA debut next week but the pressure clearly isn’t getting to Kelly Rowland. 

The 32-year-old singer joined a pal for a relaxed dinner at Madeo in West Hollywood on Friday, just two days after her first visit of the week to the celebrity favourite eatery. 

Gorgeous Kelly, who happily smiled for waiting photographers, showed off her toned figure in a fitted red dress, which she paired with strappy white sandals and a large black bag.

She even matched her manicure and pedicure to her dress, sporting a bright red polish on her nails.
There was no diva behaviour from the Destiny’s Child singer, who was happy to drive her friend.
On Wednesday, Kelly met up with her good friend La La Vasquez and a few friends for a girls’ night out at the same restaurant.
Season three of X Factor kicks off with a two-night premiere on September 11 and 12 and Kelly, who was fired from the UK version of the show, is thrilled to be getting another chance on the US version.

She has said: 'I am very excited to be reuniting with Simon Cowell and The X Factor family.
‘It feels great to be able to take this journey here at home in the states!’
Kelly’s stint on the UK show was blighted by illness that kept her at home in the states for a week - prompting reports that TV bosses were unimpressed that she had even flown back to the US when she should have been mentoring her contestants in Britain.
Kelly also reportedly tried to demand that her $750,000 pay be tripled if she made a return.

And in May 2012, the singer, who lives in Miami, announced her departure from the series, saying: 'I love the UK and being part of the show last year. Mentoring the girls was such an incredible experience I will never forget.
‘I would like to thank Simon for the great opportunity and asking me to be a judge last season.'
At the time, a spokeswoman for the star blamed 'global commitments coupled with the show's increasing demands' for Kelly's departure - although bosses felt that she had never quite gelled with the TV audience.

Despite all this, Simon didn’t hold a grudge and drafted in Kelly - who attended the launch party in Los Angeles this week in a stunning grey outfit - to replace Britney Spears. 
A source said: 'Kelly knows the X Factor, she's aware of what it takes to be a judge and she's also outspoken.
'Simon has always remained a fan of Kelly's and she's most definitely in the mix to join the judging panel on X Factor USA.'
