I hear that Britney Spears is close to a deal to join Simon Cowell on the judging panel of The X Factor in Season 2. Spears had been in talks for the gig for over a month, but I hear that the two sides are now headed for the final stretch after a big breakthrough over the weekend when major deal points were agreed upon. As we previously reported, following an initial discussion, the pop star received a $10 million offer to join the second season of Fox’s singing competition. I hear that her actual salary will end up being more than that, probably closer to $15 million and possibly exceeding the $12 million Jennifer Lopez received on American Idol last season. Cowell and Fox had focused on getting Spears on board before moving to filling the other vacant judge chair on the show. The recruitment of Spears would bring the star power Cowell & Co. had been looking for after their decision to replace first-season X Factor judges Paula Abdul and Nicole Scherzinger. In his courtship of Spears, Cowell has been effusive in his public praise for the Toxic singer as a prospective X Factor judge. “I’m fascinated by Britney,” he said during a radio interview with Billy Bush in February. “The fact that she’s one of the most talked about — not just pop stars but people — in the world today, means that you’ve got this star power. This girl has resilience. I would think that if she’s managed to sustain a family, a career, which is tough, (X Factor would be) a walk in the park. I would be fascinated to hear what she has to say. She’s still hot, she’s still having hit records and she’s still controversial. There’s a reason for that.”



YASSS!! In about two weeks we should know what's gonna happen. Last year by the end of April Cheryl was pretty much confirmed so they should be announcing any news soon!!

But simon said the judges would be announced this week. Witch means that negotiations were finished. Idk what to believe any more.

[Eaten By Lions]

At this point is Britney isn't a judge it would just look bad on Simon.

[jpsketch]

Deadline is never wrong.

[Dark Phoenix]

YAY! can't wait for Britney reactions and gifs!!!

but if Simon make her feel bad or cry i will be so mad -.-

[feuxtography]

I don't think she should be a judge anyways. She's too nice, and if she criticizes people it would look bad for her.

I know. Especially when it comes to the XF. They were pretty much the first to confirm Cheryl last year.
If Simon said he would announce them this week then this article makes sense.

[electroheart]

I can't believe anyone would believe she's going to judge. Have you seen the contestants who get pissed? They go off and if Britney made one of them mad, you know they'd rip her apart. "BRITNEY SPEARS JUDGING ME? YOU CANT SING OR DANCE ANYMORE. YOUR A HAS-BEEN. YOU FLOPPED AND YOU ARE AND ALWAYS WILL BE WHITE TRASH."

Her team may be sketchy but they wouldn't put her through that.

unless she doesn't judge until the final 20 or w/e final # of people.

[Legend ReX]

^Ditto. I honestly want to know how she'll react when some irate contestant calls her a talentless, lip-syncing *****. I'm scared but curious at the same time.

[Evun]

I love Britney to death, but I still just don't see her having the personality for the job.

[Lil Misty]

Katy Perry was a pretty big bitch when she judged people on that one show 1D was on

she was like female simon lol I loved it

[fortheloveofmusic]

when L.A reid was on Live! with Kelly yesterday Kelly asked him if Britney will be on the panel and he tried to dance around the question and said he doesn't know who will be on the judging panel. Obviously he's lying lmao

[MWB]

This is going to be interesting.

Britney is my queen. I was stating what someone would say if Britney pissed them off. Something the average hater would say. It was in quotations and everything. I just...

[Jared]

People should wait until the actual show starts to judge her. You don't know Britney personally.

[MarryTheDark]

I'd still be so surprised if this actually ended up happening. I'm definitely here for it though!

I'm sure she reads comments like that everyday on twitter. It's nothing new to her.
