Britney and X Factor

So, what's up with everyone bashing Britney on lasts night episode of X Factor? Unfortunately I wasn't able to watch it but I've been hearing nothing but negative about her, that she looked tired, she looked horrible...and so on.

I'm not a HUGE Britney fan, but come on. I know enought that she's been through alot and also is going through alot currently.

I'm just wondering what everyone elses thoughts and opinions are. Was she REALLY that bad to make a big deal about?

Re: Britney and X Factor

  • I haven't watched the show but I heard on the radio Simon Cowell admitted he lied when he said the rumors about her sucking weren't true and she's a great judge and blahblahblah. He admitted he lied and that she has been difficult to work with. Then again, the radio DJs made a valid point that this 'drama' was happening right before the season premiere and it could just be for publicity. 
  • I thought she did great.  She did look tired/messy I thought but I thought she judged really well.

    I agree! She did do a very good job with judging and she knows what she's talking about. But she did look off - she looked like she wasn't all the way there.  I never noticed how aged she looks now. I love Britney! I might be one of her biggest fans and I've loved her from the beginning and I'm always rooting for her. But honestly she just looked tired. Her facial expressions were very strange.

  • I thought the show was ok.  They were overly excited by that Emblem 3 or whoever.  I thought they were "aright" but nothing great.  I found the X-Factor depressing in contrast with The Voice, which always seems upbeat and fun.  That scene with the guy who had the duet with Britney 10 years ago was just sad.  I didn't like it, and I agree that Britney looked tired, old, and had odd facial expressions.  I couldn't figure out what she was thinking when she heard the guy that she knew, but she seemed like she was trying hard to be nice.

    I don't know what to make of Demi Lovato.

    Britney & Demi looked like a high school snots here.  Britney has no room to talk about "creepy" people -  with her rap sheet of crazy town.

     I don't know either. I'm not sure why they would have picked her to be quite honest. She sings "dance" songs. She's not that talented. I didn't even recognize her name until I googled and found out who she was with her one popular dance song (which I'm not a fan of).

     Hmmmm...I didn't see this. Wow. That's kinda rude. It didn't show the begining of his performance. Was he cocky or anything to deserve them being snotty?

     Ya...I agree she look's tired, but everyone practically knows she has a medical condition and is taking so much medication that I can't blame her for looking worn out. It's just sad that it's become such a huge topic.

     I heard recently on Perez that there was this huge discovery of something health wise wrong with Britney and imediately her lawyers were contacted so the information was under lock and key for no one to find out. I mean there must be something seriously wrong with her, medically, for them to react like that. It's quite sad, especially all that she's been through.

  • She looked BEAT. That's the best way to describe it. She looked tired, had waaay too much bronzer on so she was practically orange, and she kept making these very unattractive faces to the point where you couldn't tell if she was happy or grossed out. The faces are what really bugged me, someone would come on stage and before they even opened their mouths she would have this terrible look on her face like her ex just walked through the door.

     See I noticed this last night and I was thinking " Whoa Britney, this is soooo not like you." She seems so different than before. Maybe her meds are really not jiving with her, but after watching X Factor last night I thought she was sorta rude. Nevermind how she looked, it was just her attitude wasn't right.

  • I'm a huge Britney fan but I just really feel for her. She looked exhausted- you would think her make up artists would fix that up for her. It looked like her make up had worn off. It will be interesting how she will do live without all the editing. They definitely were playing it up that Britney was a judge. I felt like they panned the camera to her a ton.

    I agree with both of you.  She does seem so different. But it's like she's trying to act like her old self but it's not coming off very well. The poor girl has been through so much and I feel like it really mentally screwed her up.  Her faces are really bugging me, too. I don't understand why she constantly has her mouth open.  I'm only watching the show for her but I don't think I'm going to watch it past the auditions.

  • Awww...I feel bad for Britney...she's probably all stressed out that the public is gonna notice that she isn't well...She probably feels embarrassed about it too...Poor thing...
