Britney Spears And Demi Lovato Talk Cute Boys And Simon Cowell In New X Factor Interview

By Zachary Swickey

The upcoming revamped second season of Foxs The X Factor is sure to be interesting now that Britney Spears and Demi Lovato have replaced Paula Abdul and Nicole Scherzinger as judges alongside industry vet L.A. Reid and the programs mastermind, Simon Cowell.

Season two doesnt kick off until September 12, but auditions are well underway for the program. A new YouTube vid interview posted on X Factors official account provides a glimpse into the season two auditions in Providence, Rhode Island.

Were first shown the dramatic entrance from the individual judges as they exit their limos and walk the red carpet with fans screaming wildly. Cowells entrance is a little more comical as he is seen driving a small scooter complete with several motorcycle patrolmen escorting him and sneaking in through a back entrance that appears to be fan-free (what a party pooper).

In the interview, Spears is asked if shell let any guys through simply because theyre cute something Reid and Cowell have admittedly been guilty of when it comes to female contestants. I think it does help a little bit if the guy is somewhat handsome, she says, but I feel like for the most part we try to boil it down to talent.

Lovato explained how difficult it can be sitting in the judges chair, saying, Youre always thinking in the back of your mind, if you say no, what if that is their only shot? And you let them go when they werent really that bad? Its confusing, but its everything I expected and more with having fun ! and bond ing with the cast.

Everyones really great except Simon, Lovato joked about her fellow judges. The singer seems to have plenty of nostalgic love for Spears in particular, saying, I grew up listening to her [Spears] so its really awesome sitting next to her on the panel.

Spears returned the love, saying, Same for her [Lovato] too. I totally admire her work and everything that shes done. Its fun!
