After months of speculation, pop star Britney Spears has officially signed on as a judge for the second season of The X Factor, according to E! Online.
Rumors have swirled
about the singer joining the Fox singing competition, but today E!
reports that Spears will be paid between $15 and $16 million to join Simon Cowell and
L.A. Reid on the judging panel for the show’s next season, set to
premiere in early fall.
Brit
will replace one of two open seats on the bench left by outgoing judges
Paula Abdul and Nicole Scherzinger. Presently, the fourth judge slot
