Simon Cowell launched the U.S.
version of "X Factor" last September with great fanfare and boasts
that it would topple ageing "American Idol" as America's most-watched
TV show.
Cowell finally announced what we all knew was coming ...Britney Spears and former Disney Channel star Demi Lovato will join talent show "The X Factor" as judges when the U.S. version of the contest returns to television in September.
Cowell said in a Twitter
message that Spears, 30, the world's biggest pop phenomenon of the 2000s, will
join him on "X Factor," which searches for a new pop star from tens
of thousands of ordinary Americans.
Spears will be joined by 19 year old singer
and actress Demi Lovato, to fill the judge's seats left by Paula Abdul and
Nicole Scherzinger, who were both fired by Cowell after a disappointing first
season in 2011.
Cowell included a message with the pic -- "Can't believe it's finally happened. Very exciting!"
After firing little-known Briton Steve Jones, a new host are still yet to announce.
