Dishing about her hit reality show ?The X Factor,? Britney Spears pretaped an appearance on ?The Tonight Show with Jay Leno? on Monday (October 29).
The "I Wanna Go" songstress was looking fab in a cleavage-baring, houndstooth and plaid mini dress as she grabbed a seat at NBC's Burbank studios alongside Simon Cowell to chat with Leno about the FOX competition series.
And while Miss Spears is definitely used to being showered with love from her many adoring fans, she admitted that hearing boos and being critical to others while she sits at the judge?s table is a little difficult.
?It?s really hard, but you know if they?re supposed to be a doctor and they?re wasting seven years of their life doing something like that? I would want to know,? the 30-year-old explained.
During the appearance, which airs at 11:30PM ET/PT on NBC, Britney and Simon also treated viewers to an "X-Factor" political commercial featuring both Mitt Romney and Barack Obama.

Simon Cowell is constantly looking for the fountain of youth or a combination of treatments that’ll get him there.Recently, he’s becomeobsessedwith putting sheep placenta on his face says the Daily Mirror. What? Don’t act like you’ve never done it before.
Simon has tried vitamin injections, drips, detoxes, smoothies, Botox and massages but the one thing he believes works the best is having a Beverly Hills doctor slather placenta all over his face. He insists it gives him back the shine and glimmer that long hours and smoking take away. Then again, it could be the glare from the little bits of placenta he forgot to wipe off his face.

Clearly not ready to settle down just yet, Simon Cowell has taken a break from his engagement with former fiance Mezghan Husseiny.
The ?X Factor? bully confirmed that he and his makeup artist gal ? who haven?t seen each other since before Christmas - are no longer an item.
Recently chatting with the Daily Mail, Cowell explained, "It is quite a complicated relationship. We have had a break from each other, and we are still incredible close."
"I'm vulnerable," he added. "It's not on, it's not off, it's somewhere in the middle. I don't know if I will ever get married, but I am happy."

Children may have visions of sugar plums dancing in their heads, but the only vision I’ll be having after seeing Simon Cowell’s furry teats will be of choking on salty white chocolate Hersey’s Kisses rolled in fur.

With the first season of the hit competition show set to come to a close this week, the stars of "The X Factor" gathered together for a press conference in Los Angeles on Monday (December 19).
Among those on-hand were co-judges Paula Abdul, Simon Cowell, Nicole Scherzinger and L.A. Reid, who posed for pictures on the arrivals carpet before heading inside to join the final three contestants for a drawing to decide the order of performances.
During the drawing, Melanie Amaro chose to go third while Chris Rene picked second and Josh Krajcik ended up as the opener of the show airing on FOX this Wednesday (December 21).
Meanwhile, the winner will be crowned the following night during the results show, with star performers slated to appear including Justin Bieber, Leona Lewis and Ne-Yo with Pitbull.

Here are some new photos of Simon Cowell and his cat-face. While Simon has not been a stranger to Botox in the past (he admitted to using it as early as 2008), it seems like Simon got a little ?extra? just before filming the new season of The X Factor UK. It was noticeable. I can see it in these photos taken from a distance, but apparently it was even more harsh at The X Factor judges? table:
He admits being vain, so perhaps Simon Cowell should avoid watching any repeats of Britain?s Got Talent. Millions of viewers were shocked by the music mogul?s drooping left eye during the live semi-finals of the ITV show on Monday night ? thought to be caused by Botox treatment.
It was the first time Cowell, 51, had been seen on British TV since the X Factor final in December, and fans were quick to point out his wilting eye and a small bruise by his cheekbone.
A show source said: ?Simon had overdone things a little with the Botox and it soon showed up on camera ? especially as we film in high definition, which is particularly unforgiving. During the break between shows, the producers were quick to change the lighting over the judging panel. Simon was not happy.?

Is anyone else starting to wonder if Simon has lost his edge a little bit? It?s all

Paula Abdul closed a last minute deal to become a judge on X Factor yesterday. She now joins LA Reid, Simon Cowell and Cheryl Cole at the judge’s table. Former Pussycat Doll Nicole Scherzinger and UK tv persona Steve Jones will host.
A condition in her contract for her failed Live to Dance show almost prevented her from joining X Factor but that wasn’t the main issue because it had been resolved. The main issue was Paula who didn’t make a final decision until hours before the taping. Asked what the problem was, Abdul said, “I am here, only Simon and I understand.” Which is true. No one can decipher Paula’s incoherent rambling except for Simon.
I’m surprised when they asked Paula for comment, she didn’t just say, “The sky is blue. Coke. Muffins?” She’s a terrible judge. Nothing she says is ever relevant. It’s as if when people perform in front of her, she closes her eyes and just imagines what happens and comments on that.

After a lot of speculation, Paula Abdul has joined Simon Cowell’s X Factor as a fellow judge. Accompanying her on the panel will be Cowell, British singer Cheryl Cole and American music producer Antonio “L.A.” Reid. Nicole Scherzinger of the Pussycat Dolls and British TV presenter Steve Jones will co-host the show, which premieres in September and just started filming on Sunday, with Paula there.
The ‘X Factor’ judging panel is complete, with the final chair to be filled by Paula Abdul, who just closed the deal in last-minute negotiations, according to the Hollywood Reporter.
Abdul will take her seat alongside Simon Cowell, reuniting the former ‘Idol’ stars once again. Cheryl Cole and Antonio ‘L.A.’ Reid have already been named as the other ‘X Factor’ judges.
Meanwhile, Pussycat Doll and former ‘Dancing With the Stars’ champ Nicole Scherzinger has been hired to host the U.S. talent competition when it premieres on Fox in September.
But Scherzinger will have a co-host, according to EW.com: Steve Jones, British TV personality. Jones, 34, is a Welsh-born former model and a virtual unknown in the U.S. (Of course, Ryan Seacrest was largely unknown when he was tapped to emcee ‘American Idol,’ and the gig seems to have worked out for him!) Jones reportedly was down to the wire competing for the ‘X Factor’ job against ‘High School Musical’ star Corbin Bleu.
Scherzinger, 32, wowed producers when she was a guest judge on a recent episode of the ‘X Factor’ in the U.K., where she also released a hit single this year, ‘Don’t Hold Your Breath.’
Abdul, 48, reportedly hammered out her new contract just in the nick of time: The judging rounds of ‘X Factor’ begin taping in Los Angeles today. [Sunday]

Well Paula will certainly make things more interesting, if not harder to understand. Cowell needed a big name to join him on the panel and while Reid and Cole are both famous they don’t have Paula’s name recognition. I like her and find her very sweet, but she’s definitely loopy as hell. She’s a fun sidekick for Simon though and he’ll be recreating the most interesting judge dynamic from Idol by having her join him on X Factor. Idol producers really screwed up the panel by bringing in Kara DioGuardi in 2009 and kind of forcing Paula out. I kind of understand why they did it though. She can’t be easy to work with.
These photos are from outside the X Factor taping on 5/8/11. I find them kind of mesmerizing and I love Paula’s goofy purple dress and shoes. They’re perfect for her. Credit: WENN.com

Moving forward to concentrate on the show's U.S. debut, Simon Cowell has officially quit his judging role on the U.K. version of "X Factor."
ITV has confirmed what has been speculated for months, that the 51-year-old is indeed leaving and will now work to divide his time between the American and British versions.
The network has also reported that Simon will remain "an enormous presence backstage" on the British version of the talent competition, yet it's unknown just how much on-air time fans can expect.
On top of the UK departure, Cowell has voiced his hopes in landing Nicole Scherzinger for the US version.
Simon told, "Yeah, I want her to do it but we've got to get the deal done and find someone with whom she has chemistry. But I absolutely adore her. She was fantastic on the UK X Factor. I'm hopeful it will happen."
He added: "She's gorgeous and ruthlessly ambitious and doesn't arrive with a massive entourage. Everyone adores her."
Cowell's newest "X Factor" adventure is scheduled to get underway sometime this fall on FOX.

He walked away from one of the most successful shows on network television, and looking back Simon Cowell thinks things will be fine without him.
The former ?American Idol? stud told press he doesn?t mind being replaced by Aerosmith frontman Steven Tyler.
Simon commented jokingly, ?I always said it had to be someone who wasn't better looking than me, and they achieved it.?
Additionally, Cowell offered some advice to Mr. Tyler- "It?s a fun job. You've got to take it like that. You can't take it too seriously."
