14 DAY TRIAL // Good news for Demi Lovato fans who loved seeing her as judge and mentor on X Factor USA: she’s returning for another season, she confirms in a statement to Deadline.
Boss and fellow judge Simon Cowell also confirms she’s on board for another season by joking how annoying she is – but a joy to be around nonetheless.
“I am so excited to return as a judge and mentor on The X Factor,” Demi says.
“Last season was an unbelievable experience and I really enjoyed developing personal relationships with the contestants and the panel. I look forward to taking my previous experience and applying it to make this season even better,” she adds in the same statement.
Also on the panel last season were Britney Spears and L.A. Reid but they’ve already announced they’re not coming back. Replacements are yet to be revealed.
Another change could be Khloe Kardashian’s departure: she co-hosted with Mario Lopez last season but is rumored not to return.
