So basically everyone else can stay pressed while Godney continues to remain the legendary force she is because this season of X-Factor is about to become the highest rated talent search show in history, mark my words!!!

Check out the official press release below:

GLOBAL POP ICON BRITNEY SPEARS
AND MULTI-TALENTED ARTIST DEMI LOVATO
JOIN L.A. REID AND SIMON COWELL
ON “THE X FACTOR” JUDGES’ PANEL

Multi-platinum, Grammy Award-winning worldwide pop icon Britney Spears and singer, songwriter and actress Demi Lovato will join L.A. Reid and Simon Cowell as judges on THE X FACTOR, the hit singing competition series returning this fall on FOX.

Spears is one of the most successful and celebrated entertainers in pop history. Her musical career boasts nearly 100 million albums sold worldwide and countless awards and accolades, including the 2011 MTV Video Vanguard Award and Billboard’s Best-Selling Female Artist of the Decade (1998-2008). Spears first captivated audiences with her first single “…Baby One More Time,” an international hit that is currently 14x Platinum in the U.S. So far, Spears has earned a total of five No.1 debut albums and 24 Top 40 songs in her career.

Lovato is an accomplished singer and actress with a devoted and engaged young fan base. Her single, “Skyscraper,” off of her most recent album, “Unbroken,” recently went platinum, while the video for her new single, “Give Your Heart a Break,” already has garnered 10 million YouTube views. Her first album, “Don’t Forget,” debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 chart and her second album, “Here We Go Again,” debuted at No. 1. Lovato began acting at the age of 10, and starred in the cable television series, “Sonny With A Chance.” Her film credits include “Camp Rock” and “Princess Protection Program.”

“I’m absolutely delighted Britney and Demi are joining us,” said Simon Cowell. “Britney remains one of the biggest stars in the world, she’s talented, fascinating – and I believe she knows exactly how to spot THE X FACTOR.  Demi’s had an amazing career in music, TV and film for someone her age. She’s young, confident, and enthusiastic. I think it’s really important that she speaks to our younger audience. The new panel will be dynamic and will work really well with the changes we are making to the show.”

Spears added, “I couldn’t be more excited to join THE X FACTOR judging panel. I’m a huge fan of the show and now I get to be a part of the action. Simon and L.A. better watch out!”

“I’m so thrilled to join this legendary group of judges on THE X FACTOR,” said Lovato. “To be able to spend each week with Simon, L.A. and Britney watching the best that America has to offer is truly a dream come true.”

Mike Darnell, President of Alternative Entertainment, Fox Broadcasting Company, noted, “Britney is an unparalleled superstar. Her success in the music industry over the last two decades makes her a perfect fit for THE X FACTOR judging panel.  Demi has mass appeal and is beloved by her fans around the world. We are incredibly lucky to have them on board and we know they will bring so much excitement to the judging table for Season Two!”

“Britney Spears has done it all – she is the ultimate pop icon – and I am thrilled that she has agreed to join THE X FACTOR,” said executive producer Cecile Frot-Coutaz. “Nobody embodies THE X FACTOR more than Britney – she has shown the world what it means, how to do it and how to sustain it! Demi, like Britney, was discovered at a young age. Her ambition and drive solidifies her as one of the most popular young artists today. Now they will each get a chance to share their experiences and skills with the acts that they will mentor on THE X FACTOR.”

I’m going to have to start a weekly rundown on the site when the show airs, omg this is all really too much! It’s fucking Britmas people!

Oh, and Demi Lovato joined the panel too. Good for her, I can get down with these 4!

Are you losing your shit? Will you be tuning in?

Scherzinger debuted her new single “Pretty” live on the show tonight. “Pretty” is a big POP ballad and I wouldn’t be surprised if One Republic frontman Ryan Tedder had something to do with this record. Listen to the live premiere of “Pretty” via YouTube below, what do you think of the new track?

“Pretty” is taken from her forthcoming US release of debut solo album Killer Love which has been pushed back in the states an insanely numerous amount of times.

Gaga coves WestEast Magzine and look’s digitally awesome while doing it. The photo shot by Stuart Semple apparently has something to do with ART, doesn’t everything these days!?

The US version of the 500,000+ selling remix album from Lady Gaga hit’s shelves next week, US fans who purchased the IMPORT versions already can breathe a bit better knowing that the US release only contains 10 tracks- compared to the 17 tracks on the UK and Canada Imports!!! So once again the music scene outside the US proves to get the BEST releases while people in the states get the shaft, when will the industry learn!!

While Dance In The Dark has been confirmed as 4th single for some time now, rumors are circulating the POP sphere that Polydor confirmed the song will not have a video(which we find hard to believe, but you never know)! While we LOVE the song, we don’t think it will have the upper hand without the video, a video would certainly garner the exposure the track needs to “grow” on the mainstream audiences!
