Although all eyes have been on Britney Spears this week during the X Factor season premiere, Demi Lovato has been in the shadows creating a name for herself on the singing reality show.
PEOPLE magazine reports that while Lovato, 20, is a full decade younger than the queen of pop, she shouldn’t be ruled out, as both powerhouses have reached the No. 1 spot on the Billboard music charts.
And while some viewers may not think Lovato has enough experiences to qualify as a judge, the young starlet has been through her fair share of trials, helping her to have empathy and understanding of the tough road that is making it in the music industry.
