Britney Spears gets a one, two touch of Photoshop in the new promotionals for X Factor USA season 2.
And while she -give or take- looks great, we can’t help but feel the “artificial” nature of the shot will mimic the editing of her judging ability on the show. Call us cut throat, but it’s clear Simon Cowell and co signed her on the basis of her name, rather than ability. The woman can’t perform, nor even sit through interviews anymore. How or why should she be expected to fare any better on live TV is bewildering.
In any case, being the fair and unbias site we are, we’ll wait until the show’s premiere in September to see how her narrative plays out. In the meanwhile, peep another pic after the jump…
The Princess of Pop looks gorgeous.
Why so much hate. This post makes it seem like she is not capable of anything when she has been in the industry over 12 years and made a big fortune just doing some of the things this article says she cannot do. Isn’t this the same blog that said Britney should have several seats when she was touring. Now she is doing exactly that and the hate continues. Maybe someone needs a hard yet cream filling to get over their bitter streak.
she’s been in the business for 12 year but was a decent performer for only about 6 of them.
it seems like such a joke that she should be judging others for what she can no longer do.
She made a big impact in music and have got the
credit, diamonds and accolades to prove it, So!
She looks great in the picture Grape!
You finally said something even I can agree with!
She looks really good here… love Britney!!
Brittney looks looks like a fake human-sized doll. BTW, why is Demi on X-Factor?
She is supposed to represent the younger generations.
I guess
@Least she has a Job and she’s paid.

Britney don’t care what people think!
Britney looks like perfection *_*. Sam your just pressed because Britney has natural beauty while your fav has to chemically bleach her skin and wear wigs to achieve that look. And don’t you dare come for Britney’s performances performances when your fav has the stage presence of a plastic bag
We’re living in 2012 not 1999. Why don’t Britney Spears’ stans realize that she is living on the “used to be” era? She is yet to archieve her comeback as the Princess Of Pop.
she looks good but natural beauty…pleeze. does she have two black eyes or is that make-up? if you think she doesn’t wear hair extensions…well, you, no doubt you probably think she still has talent.
@QUEEN BRIT, BRIT Cosign!
Britney doesn’t look nice. She looks like the female version of the Colorado movie theatet killer…the Joker.behemoth looks crazy
Okay it’s not that bad. But itaoin’t that good either
What is this b**** doing judging a talent show when she has none?
Hell, even Demi Lovato can sing circles around her.
I guarantee she will be leaving in the next season or 2.
Britney looks amazing I’d rather get new music from her than see her hosting a talent show.
Bri Bri Baby Look Good To Me! I’ll Always Love You Bri, Depress Or Not, Singing/Lipsing I Don’t Care Girl, You’re My Britney Of Baby One More Time Cause You’re Toooooo Sweet!!!!!!!!!!
YES!!!
Britney’s face looks stiff
Hmmmmmm Now i have read, heard everything,
just something to try and shade this beautiful artist.
Please cover demi lovato she has some urban esque songs..”my love is like a star”..!
Britney is better than Beyonce + Rihanna combined. #TEAMBRITBRIT
Beyonce can actually sing, while Brittney and Rihanna can’t sing for their lives
My goodness its not even about who’s good, better or best.
But if you want to compare notes then i wonder why Beyonce have not reached the amount of sales that BRITNEY Has?
Where’s beyonce’s album sales, music sales as compared to BRITNEY’S Since britney and beyonce is around the same age, dah, dah, dah and since RIHANNA IS YOUNGER then both of these Super Stars thanks for mentioning RIHANNA’S
name proving my point that rihanna is a force and is just as driven as the big girls so to say. Britney has sold more then beyonce in her solo career and her tenure with “Destiny Childs” explain that….
ps
And since this is the digital age RIHANNA has
stepped up her digital sales game and is the
biggest d seller in the US, Ever
@MC….That includes brit, brit and beyonce’s sales.
@ LAX I am not a Rihanna fan nor a Beyonce fan, but you got to give credit where it is due. Beyonce and Brittney can dance while Rihanna can’t dance. And of the three Beyonce is the only one who can actually sing. In terms of sales Brittney has slayed both Beyonce and Rihanna and in terms of hits Rihanna is on top…etc…..

yeah, lax, it is and if not it should be.
you should know that it was much easier to sell records in ’99 and the early 2000’s than it is today with illegal downloading etc. adele is the only female wh
july 25th 7:07p contd…
….adele is the oly female that has sold 20 milll copies of one cd in this era with it’s illegal downloading, recession and without having to sell bubblegum pop.
britney hasn’t slayed beyonce since 1999-2003. ” explain that”….

@ mc j…
mc, you’re right to give credit to beyonce for singing and dancing but rihanna and britney are in the same category when it comes to both of these. as a matter of fact rihanna may be outdoing britney in the singing department because she sounds as though she’s been taking lessons. britney could dance at one time…now not so much. during their billboard performance of s & m both of their dancing abilities were equal.
They are doing it for the money because their music isn’t selling…They don’t get a f*** about a fan nor a STAN… yall call yourselves “stans” of this artist but illegally download their music. I just had to rant because yall b****** make me sick with yall teams and the b****** aint selling s*** but their soul for a cool million. GURRRL BYE
EuuuuuH How The Freaking F*** Someone Else Stealling My Nickname????? Same Wake Up Asap!!!! Who’s This C*** Talking About DemiLevato??? F*** You F** I Want My Name Back You No life Petasse Without Baaaaaaallzzz!!!
Are you having a nervous breakdown?
@MACHAVIEL,,,They tries that shyt all the time trying to take others dam screen names. Since my english is s***** they left my non english ass along, get them
MACHAVIEL!
i just dont get why some people dont get that britney is talented artist.. you dont have to be a greaaaat vocalist to be named talented.. it requires more than that. britney has proven that she is talented because if not, how can you mantain a career of 13 of success???? perhaps she is not the most talented one but she is a brand, an icon…
“britney has proven that she is talented because if not, how can you mantain a career of 13 of success????”
LOL. LOL. LOL. We don’t live in a perfect world. Britney wasn’t the first untalented singer to have success and she won’t be the last one. Actually, Britney used to be a good performer. But she doesn’t have any real talent as a singer. Demi Lovato has way more to share about music than Britney, but she has more to share about the music industry and fame than Demi.
Success is all about a good PR machine behind you, money, good relationship with radio stations, catchy songs and charisma.
you are right gilberto. success depends on those things you mentioned but i think brit is actually talented. perhaps she is not at her best nowdays. but i believe britney has yet to offer more music and good perfomances to us
a good pr machine is right! the media keeps her career on life support because like her fans, they can’t get over her 1999 performance in p**-tails, short plaid skirt, and white blouse tied at the waist.
@ANNA cosign, they or calling her talentless because BRITNEY HAS
MADE HASH OUT OF BEYONCE’S STEALING ASS.
@ lax….
britney hasn’t made “hash” since 2004. there’re plenty of female artists…including beyonce…that have been combing britney’s weave for years.
Wow she actually looks good for once
QUEEN B is flawless
Then what are you doing here?
What the hell?! Shut you f****** mouth. She looks amazing and she’s a Pop music legend with over 100 million records sold and numerous awards won
Who the f*** are you to comment those bullshits on her?!
She looked gorgeous!
I love her, but I’m not impressed. She’s just over 30 and they’re trying to make her look 40! I’ll always have a soft spot for her, especially as long as she keeps delivering flawless pop music, but I feel like this TV show is a horrible choice on her part. That’s just my opinion, though. I hope it all works out.
The fact that Britney is no longer sitting next to Simon tells you everything you’re gon need to know about how things pan out.
Safe to say, Simon only sits next to the divas of the show. Demi must be out performing Britters.
its just depressing how far she has gotten with such little talent when there are plenty of more talented artists who have gone unseen.
she is living, breathing proof that in this industry,
media hype > talent.
i dont care if you britney fans thumb me down, i never lied once in this comment.
@ truth tea…
i’ll have a cup.
@TRUTH TEA,,,,When the final bell is rung it is not going to say nothing about
who was talentless, dah, dah, dah they or going to state only the good you
have accomplished and that goes for even those who you think, feel and see as the BETTER person it don’t matter a dam, it’s all in the sales, image and how the public see’s you. Britney has what it takes to make it in the industry and she’s has sold more then many artist whole careers before she turned 20 years old deery.
Just like many tries to measure one’s talent aganist anothers that will never work
because people love who they love and you can not write enough or be on no one’s
side so hard that it will make people dislike any of the artist because people love who they love and there’s not a dam thing that can change people’s minds if they love and support a certain artist, ever no matter how you huff and puff and talk shyt aganist that artist, Case and Poing Rihanna can be used as the perfet Example as to what i am saying.
Case and poing,,,
Britney loos Gor-g-eous!!!!
Point*
obviously you’ve never heard that you’re only as good as your last performance. britney has been skating on her past glory for years now.
she floats on hype and hula for what she accomplished ages ago and gets a pass on her lame mediocre performances she puts out today.
i agree with truth tea, it should be about the ones who have talent. of course it’s obvious that it’s not. it’s all about who the media chooses to hype as a superstar and shade as a flop.
it’s an
Britney looks gorgeous in that pic!
GO BRITNEY!! 🙂
WOW SHE LOOK’S FANTASTIC
They only released this because Mariah is receiving a ton of press and media coverage for idol. They all looked extremely photoshopped, although it’s a cool photo.
Excuse the errors…..
Clearly, TGJ and it readers are no fans of Britney. I should rethink coming here.
Damnit Britney and Mariah! Now I have to watch these singing shows because of them lol.
Britney can’t sing, can’t dance and looks years beyond her biological age (not her Beyonce age) and has horrible fashion sense and is too lazy to even bother to have a stylist (or if she does, no one would know) but I still root for her and loved “Femme Fatale” even though the lyrical content was junk. I love her computer voice – it’s very s***
@ truth teller…
hope you don’t mind my asking. you root for her, why?
Im soo excited to see britneyyy
