Britney Spears reportedly stormed off the set of “X Factor” yesterday after a contestant “butchered” one of her songs. I’ll pause here for your perfunctory snorts of disgust. TMZ says:
Britney Spears walked off the set of “X Factor” moments ago … and according to several people in the audience, she was upset after a contestant butchered her song, “Hold It Against Me.”
Britney did not come back immediately … and four contestants auditioned in front of the remaining judges … and an empty seat.
Tell me — how does one “butcher” a Britney Spears song, exactly? You can’t murder that which has already been killed. Science says so.
Shortly after announcing that Britney Spears had signed on to become a judge on X Factor, Fox revealed that former Disney star Demi Lovato would be joining her illustrious ranks as the fourth and final judge for the upcoming season. People magazine says:
Confirmation of their new roles was made Monday at the FOX upfronts in New York City.
“I’m so excited about this whole experience,” Spears, 30, said. “It’s going to be so much fun and so different from anything I’ve ever done. I’m ready to find a true star.”
“I am totally stoked to be here,” Lovato, 19, added. “I’m excited to represent my generation and I’m ready to find the winner.”
I think it’s clear why they went with Demi Lovato. The raw sex appeal. And I of course mean “raw” in the “inner thigh chafing” sense of the word. She’s about to Hulk right out of those pants she’s wearing.

Although countless media outlets reported that Britney Spears had already signed on as the newest judge on “X Factor,” it’s not actually a done deal until Fox officially announces it at the unveiling of their fall lineup on Monday. TMZ says:
Sources connected with Britney tell us… the deal should be signed in the next day or two. The goal is for FOX to make the announcement Monday at the Upfronts in NYC.
The deal will definitely be signed, but not by her. Since she’s under a conservatorship, Jamie Spears and Jason Trawick — the co-conservators — will be the ones to sign.
The contract must be approved by the judge handling the conservatorship, but sources connected with Britney tell us … it has already been pre-approved.
I might have actually watched this if it were the old Britney Spears, the one who shaved herself bald and spoke in a British accent and would take a swing at you with an umbrella if you got too close. It would sure make the whole elimination process a lot more entertaining. As would a trap door over a rancor pit like the one in Jabba’s Palace.
$15 million dollars is a small price to pay for beauty that radiant:
Crack might be “wack,” and crack might be “cheap,” but judging by her X Factor performance on Sunday night, Whitney Houston is back to basin’ again (FF to the 4:00 mark for the especially crack-y stuff). Star Magazine says
The admitted drug user’s bizarre appearance on Britain’s The X Factor raised eyebrows Sunday, as she nervously struggled through her song “Million Dollar Bill,” and seemed disoriented during the interview afterward.
When asked by the host when her album was to be released, Whitney paused and stared at the ground before stammering, “Yeah, the um…the album? It should released this weekend or next week sometime. I’ll be back here in April for the tour.”
When [the host] asked her what she thought of the talent, Whitney again looked at the floor for the answer. “I thought that they were…um…how do I put this? Really good.” Then she fiddled with her nose and added, “So that’s um…they’re young.”
Jesus Christ she’s freakin’ twitchy! All that’s missing is a herkie into a pile of folding chairs and a nervous smelling of the fingers she had shoved under her armpits during her Meredith Baxter-Birney monologue and she could be the old black version of Mary Katherine Gallagher.
