any thoughts on this?

My thought is Simon is really reaching now. This might be x-factors last season IMO. Not to take away from Speers or Lovato, but are they really an authority on judging others singing? I can say the same with JLo on Idol or that weird cat guy on the Voice, heh.

I think they are good choices. I know people like to knock Brittany but I've always liked her. Not her music, just as a person. Even with her parental flaws. Which are really none of my business.

I pretty much knew from watching the first season that they were going to get rid of that host. The guy was awful. Just no personality whatsoever and the accent doesn't fly over here. Not from a host. I haven't heard who the replacement is yet.

I wasn't even surprised they got rid of Nicole. But Paula I didn't see coming.

i didn't see that coming either. as for the host, i liked him, but nobody else did.

Did they name a new host?

no they didn't. i've heard rumors about the host of the show in the UK could be the host here. if i had my way, however, a woman would be hosting this show.

Not really sure about Demi Lovato, I don't really know to much about her. But even with all of the crazy antic Britney went through a few years ago, she has millions of fans and her concerts still sell out. She will definitely help with ratings.

john legend doesn't seem impressed:

i don't think he should worry about the x-factor. he should worry about how well his new show duets will do.

she used to be on the disney channel on some show called sonny with a chance & was in the camp rock movies with the jonas brothers.

I grew up on Britney music, so I've always liked and wished the best for her.

Demi Lovato though?? Hmmmm no.
