Lovato was the judge who said “no” the most to contestants — even when sometimes the other judges disagreed with her. However, Lovato has loads of personality, and I’m absolutely certain that she is going to win over millions of new fans who never heard of her before but will become admirers of her after they see her on “The X Factor.” And even though she is only 19 years old, Lovato acts mature and is clearly a smart “X Factor” judge.
Although Lovato gave the most “no” votes during this audition date, she rejects contestants by giving constructive criticism. She also has a playful sense of humor, which charmed the audience.
Quote:
Demi, was analytical, explaining her decisions, but without the off-putting verbosity of say, Kara DioGuardi. Demi is cute as a button.
Quote:
Playfully flirting with male contestants ("she is single now" became a common refrain from Cowell) and giving insightful comments at every chance, the teen star drew laughs and cheers from the crowd, along with several stunned, open-mouth stares from Cowell as the two verbally sparred.
Quote:
Demi’s answers were brutal for some of them, but also very truthful and formulated all on her own. Demi seemed into it and is very talkative.
Quote:
Lovato had that chattiness with the often nervous contestants. She demonstrated a casual rapport with the singers, even when it was clear they weren't going to be cut.
Quote:
Lovato, who is the youngest in age but also in years in this business, feels she contributes to the show because she is the right demographic for the show. She listens to the radio; she knows what her friends listen to on the radio; and she feels she knows what the industry is in need of right now.
I think giving "no" the most at one of the earliest stage of the game is the worst way to judge though. Some people have to be given chances to prove their potential.

That would be the case if she wouldn't have anything to back it up. The articles say however, that she is actually doing that really well.
