Khloe Kardashian is being seriously considered to become the next host of “X Factor” … TMZ has learned.

Sources connected with the show say they have whittled down the list of finalists to 6, and Khloe is on it.

Khloe would like the gig, but she’s not going to get it without a screen test. Producers will be doing screen tests in the next 2 weeks. Anyone who wants the hosting job must audition.

Not a bad move for the show, because the Kardashians are a proven audience draw.
