As the air date for the first live X Factor USA shows nears, Britney Spears and Simon Cowell are joining forces for another round of promo interviews. The latest was with Jay Leno and, as usual, you can see it below.

The two X Factor judges sat down with Leno to talk about the show and how they came to be working together in the first place.

The story is, as fans must know, not new: they’d never met each other, Simon called Britney twice, she accepted without negotiating, they shared the same stylist so it was “fate” for them to work together, that kind of stuff.

In the same interview, Britney also talks about how she deals with the pressure of the show and with booing from the audience.

Simon insists she’s the “mean” one, contrary to appearances, which means we should expect more booing for the live shows.

We’ll see about that.
