Jessie J is said to be contemplating quitting The Voice UK.

The Price Tag singer reportedly wants to dedicate more time to her music after tiring of claims that she acts like a diva on set.

BBC One controller Danny Cohen is said to have offered to double her £200,000 salary next season.

Speaking to the Sunday Mirror newspaper a source said: "The show is in turmoil and needs to keep somebody like Jessie who attracts kids who will vote. Danny's told Jessie he wants her back and he can offer her more. He is aware she is not happy with the show and the backlash against her.

"She just thinks maybe it's best that she concentrates on her second album and doesn't get too wrapped up in The Voice, especially if it's damaging her reputation.

"Jessie doesn't need to make a decision yet but she's considering her options. She doesn't want people to forget she's a singer."

Fellow coach Sir Tom Jones further explained to the newspaper that it would be "a lot easier" for him to return for a second series if Jessie J does, as the pair get on well.
