Demi Lovato says she expected 'X Factor' co-judge, Britney Spears, to be a 'diva'

Former Disney star Demi Lovato admits that she had no idea what to expect when she was paired up alongside Toxic singer Britney Spears, but now the Give Your Heart a Break singer admits that working with Spears is better than she could have imagined.

What surprised me the most about Britney is that she's actually really quirky.You kind of expect a legendary pop star [to] sometimes [be], like, a diva or something, but she's really not. She's a sweet, down-to-earth, Southern girl, Lovato told People at the Beverly Hills Hotel on Monday.

Lovato is currently working alongside Simon Cowell, L. A. Reid and, of course, Britney Spears. The two women replaced Paula Abdul and Nicole Scherzinger after the two were let go following less than favorable ratings from the first season.

The 20-year-old judge notes that although they are competing against each other, the most important thing to the judges is the contestants. At the end of the day, it's about the contestants. It's not about us as judges. I think other shows maybe forget that the entire purpose of the competition is to find a superstar, not to get publicity for the wrong [reasons]."
