Demi Lovato and Britney Spears Gush Over Each Other, The X Factor

Demi Lovato and Britney Spears may have a few harsh things to say to X Factor contestants this fall, but the young singers and brand new judges cover the latest issue of TV Guide Magazine - and have nothing but positive things to say about each other.

"She's a very good judge. She toughens me up," Britney says of Demi, who has shown an unexpected strict side throughout auditions so far, actually ordering a couple hopefuls to get the heck out.

And how does Lovato feel about Spears?

"I don't think a lot of people have gotten to see her personality and her sense of humor," Demi gushes. "She's cooler than me."

And older. Lovato, who just turned 20, is awfully young to be judging contestants. But she sees that as a positive, telling the publication:

"I really feel like being the first young judge on any of these vocal competition shows is a lot of pressure, but at the same time, it’s great because I get to bring in a perspective from the audience that’s around my age. I can spot somebody who has talent and who’s memorable and could be a pop star."
