In a chat with her ‘American Idol‘ colleague Ryan Seacrest on his radio show this morning (July 13), judge Jennifer Lopez announced her imminent departure for the show. The confirmation of her exit comes hot on the heels of fellow judge Steven Tyler’s announcement that he was bouncing.
It's been a few weeks now since we've had an update on who will replace Paula Abdul and Nicole Scherzinger as judges on X-Factor, so I did some "research" to find out who is in the running to be a judge.
That's what the latest buzz on the internet is saying. Many blogs are saying that Simon Cowell has signed on Britney to be a judge on "X-Factor" but no official announcement has been made.
Is Britney Spears signing on to ‘X Factor‘ after all? Reports have surfaced claiming the ‘Til the World Ends’ singer met up with her conservatorship judge to discuss the panelist position.
‘X Factor,’ in effort to revamp the show and boost ratings, cleaned house earlier this year, firing half the judging panel and its host. Names like Beyonce and Mariah Carey were tossed around as possible replacements (and for huge sums of money), and now another female big gun is a frontrunner: Britney Spears. Word is Brit was offered a cool $10 million for a slot on the show.
Britney Spears is reportedly interested in taking a judging seat on the next season of ‘X Factor,’ and now Simon Cowell is responding to the claims. The show is currently looking to replace ousted judges Paula Abdul and Nicole Scherzinger.
