Three years ago, Rita Ora was an up-and-coming singer auditioning for Jay-Z with the hopes of being signed to his Roc Nation label. Now the 21-year-old Roc Nation artist will relive that nerve-racking experience vicariously as a temporary judge on the U.K. version of ‘The X Factor.’
May 29, 2012 Simon Cowell insists that there haven’t been any problems on the set of the X-Factor. Britney Spears has now taken off twice in the middle of judging but Simon is still taking up for her.
Britney took off on her first day on the job after a contestant butchered one of her songs.
Yowza! Simon Cowell is throwing some shade at fellow singing competition shows in a big way. The ‘X Factor‘ honcho and judge allegedly is attempting to sabotage his competition at NBC, ‘The Voice.’
After Britney Spears walked off of the ‘X Factor‘ set, rumors flew that she had a meltdown and ticked off her fellow judges. While it was later confirmed there was no breakdown whatsoever, we were still left wondering why Brit left the room. Well, It turns out she’s within her contractual rights to do so. Let us explain:
May 25, 2012 Confusion reigned as Britney Spears stormed off the set on the first day of auditions for "The X Factor".
Justin Bieber and Katy Perry are among the leading contenders for the 2012 Teen Choice Awards, with Bieber snagging five nominations and Perry earning four.
Katy Perry has spawned another single, this time in the form of ‘Wide Awake,’ which was written expressly for her upcoming 3D film ‘Katy Perry: Part of Me’ and appears on the deluxe edition of ‘Teenage Dream: The Complete Confection.’ It’s an emotional and melancholy song, infused with synths, that we can’t help but think has been influenced by her split with Russell Brand.
May 17, 2012 Having a bad day? This video is sure to put a smile on your face!
Simon Cowell went through hell, high water, a conservatorship and $15 million to sign Britney Spears on to ‘X Factor.’ As a result, it’s going to take a lot more than the possibility of a meltdown to make him give that cash cow of a judge up!
We can’t wait! Miley Cyrus is hitting the road to go begin recording her new record in Miami. While she’s a bit bummed about leaving her hunky boyfriend, Liam Hemsworth, and her adorable pups behind, we’re stoked that she’s getting back to music.
‘X Factor‘ has a big budget for its next fall season because it has big expectations and big names attached to it. Britney Spears and Demi Lovato made their positions on the judging panel official yesterday (May 14). While it’s been widely reported that Spears was pocketing a cool $15 million for her spot, Lovato’s negotiations weren’t made so public … until now. How much is she taking home?
