Demi Lovato fired from the X-Factor?

"While "X Factor" judges L.A. Reid and Britney Spears have already confirmed they will not be returning, judging from what she told MTV News, Demi Lovato still seems to be mulling her decision over.

"It's hard 'cause at the end of the day, I'm a musician. So, I could take the opportunity to tour, and, you know, I have to be a business woman and I have to like balance it out on both aspects," she told MTV News last week. "But, at the same time I had some much fun. And I would love to go back."

"It's just a matter of making things work," she added. "And, you never know, I may do both; I may just pick one or the other." Her uncertainty is there even as auditions press on for season three. The show will be holding a round of auditions as soon as March 6 in the L.A. area.

If she should join Simon Cowell on the show, she already knows who she wants to have by her side on the mentoring panel. "I would love to see Lady Gaga," Lovato said of the singer. "I don't know if that's possible or not." (As it turns out, it could very well happen as Gaga just canceled her Born This Way Ball tour after being injured.)

While Lovato's "X Factor" future is unclear, there's one thing we do know: Her new single "Heart Attack" is coming March 4, and she's planning on getting real.

"And the title is just about falling in love and taking that risk," she told us. "But, she's terrified and, by 'she,' I mean me. But, I think everyone comes to a point where they feel very vulnerable in falling in love and that's what I'm talking about.""

So do y'all even think Demi's been asked back yet or....? Coz this sounds like major damage control for the announcement when she isn't. "Oh, she's been saying for months she wants to work on music hahahaha she don't need no X-factor! 2 platinum singles!!!!"

lol... we'll see. Either she's being vague about it or hasn't been asked yet. pretty sure Simon wants her back too
fireandthud 19th-Feb-2013 06:27 pm (UTC)
Yeah I thought it was a little silly of her when she said if she was asked to she would def go back. I'm never sure with Simon, he acted all buddy with Cheryl and screwed her over so... but then again he got a bit of backlash. And Demi was actually a good judge she's just got to work on the mentoring which should be a little easier for her if she does this series.

i hope she doesn't come back. she was horrible.
pseudovirus 19th-Feb-2013 03:22 pm (UTC)
the arguing was so distracting

like i get that they want someone to have that banter with simon, but both of them seemed to take it toooo far last season idek

and demi was an awful mentor.. RIP cece's career & every1 else really

poor Carly didn't even get signed... I can't smh
strumatic 19th-Feb-2013 05:16 pm (UTC)
a) Cece was terrible and was never going to get signed anyway

b) Carly was mentored by Brit-Brit, not Queen Demetria.

cece was never gonna go anywhere imo, she was too hated from the beginning.
pseudovirus 19th-Feb-2013 07:40 pm (UTC)
Producers clearly set up thag narrative and demi had her play into it. Cece was the perfect package and they all blew it.
trainwreck1017 19th-Feb-2013 08:00 pm (UTC)
really? she was the opposite of the perfect package for me tbh, i couldn't stand her 90% of the time. she was just annoying and try hard imo. especially her first audition.
swifterland 20th-Feb-2013 12:38 am (UTC)
ia and her I hated her voice
heartxsugar 20th-Feb-2013 06:01 am (UTC)
agreeeeeed. I religiously follow cece on instagram and twitter LOL.

Jennel is getting on my nerves with her instagram posts. I find her so annoying now. And I actually liked her on the show :(

The awkward moment when the title does't match the article AT ALL.... you really tried, though.
I'm sure Simon wants her back and I think she wants to be back, but she seems to be pretty busy right now and music will forever be her priority, so I have no idea what they will decide.
I don't want her to come back because I want her to focus on music, but at the same time I want the promo that comes with being a judge on The XFactor.... I'm torn.
strumatic 19th-Feb-2013 05:20 pm (UTC)
Yeah the off-topic title really irritates me too. I think she did okay on x factor, she definitely out-performed Britney, who was being paid much more for her one liners.

She may not have been THAT great of a mentor, but she learned, and she will do better next time.

As for being a judge, I like her when she's sassy. Her and Simon had mad sexual tension but it made for a great sub-plot.

I remember specifically when Cece posted an instagram picture of her and Demi, saying how Demi was the only one of the judges who came on their day off to help Cece with her performance.

You can't say she didn't try.
love88dani 20th-Feb-2013 12:55 am (UTC)
I think there's no way Demi could have been an amazing MENTOR because, except for Jennel, nobody else in her group (even in the judges houses) had a great voice. And Jennel was screwed by Simon's comments about her new look and production. Demi was the easy target - she was the youngest, with less experience and Simon and LA couldn't criticize Britney. If Demi comes back, I just hope that this time she has great VOICES in her team.
Actually, having in mind how weak her team was, the only thing I can criticize about her work is the makeover that she did at the beginning. I loved most of it, tbh, but it was too soon for the audience. If she had done that later in the show, it could have worked better.
As a JUDGE I think she was AMAZING, especially after the 1st weeks in the live shows. That panel would have been a snooze fest if Demi wasn't in it, and she actually gave constructive criticism, thing that the other judges failed to deliver.
I'm glad that robot Britney is gone, but the show needs much more changes, though - the wrong editing during auditions, the fact that Simon can change the rules whenever he wants, too much (and loud!) production during the performances, etc.

they titled it for SEO most likely. it gets them clicks.

Wtf...
genietopia 19th-Feb-2013 05:01 pm (UTC)
why the fuck is this relevant? like, seriously? gtfo.
fireandthud 19th-Feb-2013 06:29 pm (UTC)
Nice and relevant to the post..

"in one year and a half" lmfao nice try

How can Demi be fired if she was only asked for a season on the x factor?
tarblacksoul 19th-Feb-2013 06:13 pm (UTC)
Since she's putting out an album that would coincide with X-Factor she could really benefit promo wise and hopefully she has learned since last season if she does come back. They should give her the kids this time around though because I do think she could benefit them more since they're the ones more likely to go the career route she's had.

And X Factor couldn't afford Gaga.
hitthoselightz 19th-Feb-2013 06:37 pm (UTC)
apparently her single is going to drop in 10 days
trainwreck1017 19th-Feb-2013 07:09 pm (UTC)
idk she did both touring and auditions last summer and it worked out fine. i think that's why she's doing a lot of overseas dates now, so that way she can tour the US in the summer and do auditions at the same time.

i thought she was the best part of the auditions, and even though she was annoying at the beginning of the live shows, she got better as they went along. plus i agreed with most of her criticisms, especially about carly.

also i highly doubt they wanna have to replace 3 judges.
pyt0_0 19th-Feb-2013 08:50 pm (UTC)
pretty excited for her single. sounds like my kind of song.
talklikelions 19th-Feb-2013 11:18 pm (UTC)
I don't get how the article is suggesting she's fired at all...?
migglettes 20th-Feb-2013 12:22 am (UTC)
it doesnt at all, thats the thing lol
talklikelions 20th-Feb-2013 04:27 am (UTC)
I've been unplugged from the hub for too long ugh
candycheeks 20th-Feb-2013 02:32 am (UTC)
she was way better than Britney but the fighting was super annoying. If they weren't trying to play up the whole rivalry thing with Simon and Demi, I probably would've liked her.

also none of the contestants seemed to respect her opinions
you_hermit_crab 20th-Feb-2013 05:20 am (UTC)
So much denial in one post.
sweetchild92 20th-Feb-2013 05:33 am (UTC)
