From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Madonna is said to be in talks about performing on this year's series of The X Factor.

The Queen Of Pop is said to be in talks with Simon Cowell over an appearance on the popular reality TV show.

"The last series proved anything is possible when Beyonce performed with Alex - the final got 15 million viewers and that is enough to entice the biggest stars onto our stage," an insider told The Sun.

They continued: "This year is going to be bigger than ever - we are planning to get the best names in music. Madonna would be so sensational."

Other stars who have been hinted to appear on the ITV show are Robbie Williams, Lady Gaga and Rihanna.
