‘X’Factor’ USA 2013: Demi Lovato Says, 'I Miss Britney Spears, LA Reid' As Auditions Get Rolling for Season 3
‘X-Factor’ judge, Demi Lovato admitted that she misses Britney Spears and LA Reid. Does this mean she is not thrilled to work with the two new judges, Kelly Rowland and Paulina Rubio? Read on to find out.
It’s an open secret that the Latina singer has always wanted to sit next to Britney Spears on the judge panel of ‘X-Factor’ USA. It will be recalled that she had made her thoughts very clearly at the height of the show’s search for new judges for its Season 3.
"I wish Britney would come back. My next pick is Lady GaGa though, she's so cool," Demi was quoted as telling UsWeekly by MTV.co.uk., in a separate report by IBTimes-AU.
But neither Britney Spears nor Reid came back and instead Kelly Rowland and Paulina Rubio completed the two seats on the judge panel.
"I do miss [Britney and LA]," Lovato said in an interview with Digital Spy. "We spent a lot of time together and we'd formed those bonds, but it's a new chapter now and I'm excited to start a new experience with new people."
When auditions kicked off this month, Kelly and Paulina were introduced as the two additions to the panel, and whom Demi referred to as #girlpower. With all-female judges sitting next to Simon Cowell, the show has offered new changes - - ones that have never seen on a reality TV show in America before.
And Demi Lovato said she is pumped.
"Kelly is so much fun to work with - she's got a great energy about her and we connect really well. It was just an instant, off-the-bat kind of thing,” Demi said describing what it’s like to work with Kelly, a former member of Beyonce’s Destiny’s Child.
The “Heart Attack” hit-maker also offered great words for Paulina and how the show’s officials could not have done any better with its choices for new judges.
Demi said, “Paulina is doing great as well - she's really, really huge in South America and I'm glad the show is representing that side of things more."
‘X-Factor’ USA Season 3, began its audition on May 21 at South Charleston, Mass. and it went a huge success despite the unusual tardiness of Simon Cowell. The media mogul failed to make it in time for the audition because he got trapped in an island. But all was well that ends well.
