And it’s a done deal, ladies and gents!
Britney Spears is officially going to be a judge on next season’s “X Factor.”
.
E! has confirmed that the singer signed the contract this week after just a wee bit of red tape.
.
And get this: She’ll be getting $15 million for just one season’s worth of work!
.
“The contract is signed,” reveals source close to the star. “There’s been a lot of back and forth over the past few weeks as they negotiated the small details, but she’s on. It’s all completed and Britney is beyond excited.”
“She’s ready for this,” the insider continues. “She can’t wait to sit down next to Simon at the judges’ table and give this everything she’s got. She is excited about showing the world that she can do this, and do this well. This is the perfect next stage in her career. Both Britney and Simon are very excited to work together.”
.
As you’ll remember, last season, Simon Cowell axed judges Paula Abdul and Nicole Scherzinger as well as host Steve Jones.
.
With Brit on board, there’s still one judge’s seat to fill — names floating around have included Miley Cyrus and Demi Lovato, who we’ve heard may be in the lead for the coveted spot.
.
The official announcement is expected by the time Fox announces its fall schedule on Monday.
