Demi Lovato will join Britney Spears as a judge on “The X Factor” in the upcoming season.
The 19-year-old Disney star was joined by Spears as the announcement was made at the Fox network upfronts presentation at the Beacon Theatre in NYC just moments ago.
While Fox execs would not confirm earlier today whether or not Lovato and Spears would be in attendance at the Beacon Theatre, they stressed the need to make the series more “entertaining” and “exciting,” something they believe a new jolt of talent at the judges’ table can do.
“Well, we delivered,” says Simon Cowell. “This year we are seriously going to kick butt.”
