Britney reviews on X Factor Live Show 1 are mostly positive
- Daily Mail

Britney, who was dressed in a very short black minidress with silver sparkling trim collar, gushed over almost all the performances, using the words ' amazing, 'incredible' and 'entertaining' each time. Despite Simon calling her mean at times earlier this year, bar two contestants, Britney seemed to only dish out praise to the performers. While the blonde star admitted that she was nervous ahead of the live show, Britney did however looked comfortable in her judging seat.

Britney was the only one who safely made it through the two hours without embarrassing herself. She kept every comment short and sweet, not bothering anyone. L.A., on the other hand, was back to his old tricks of forcing animosity with Simon, and making little to no sense in his comments to the contestants

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Britney Spears was coolly composed on the first live episode of "The X Factor." The same can't be said for new host Khloe Kardashian Odom and her microphone.
Odom, adding to her reality TV credentials, was paired with Mario Lopez to emcee "X Factor" as the singing contest shifted Wednesday from taped to live broadcasts.
Lopez, host of "Extra," performed like the pro he is. Odom came across like the novice she is, shouting her lines despite the mic clutched in her hand and making awkward small talk with contestants and judge and executive producer Simon Cowell.
When Lopez teased 13-year-old singer Diamond White about having a boyfriend, the girl replied, "No, we're friends. My mom would kill me."
"Don't let your mom kill you," exclaimed Odom, drawing a confused smile from White.
At another point, Odom sounded like an oddly flirtatious schoolgirl as she introduced Cowell as "Mr. Sexy."
In a conference call Tuesday, Cowell had discussed expectations for his co-host, a member of reality TV's first family that includes sister Kim Kardashian. Odom's credits include "Khloe and Lamar" with husband Lamar Odom, a Los Angeles Clippers player.
She wants to "prove a point," Cowell said, noting observers had questioned Odom's readiness to steer a live program.
He warned that she would need "nerves of steel" Wednesday because she had less rehearsal time than planned.
"I kind of like to see the unpredictable and I quite like seeing people under pressure and just how they deal with it,". Cowell said. Odom and Lopez replaced first-season host Steve Jones, a U.K. TV personality.
Cowell also expressed reservations about how Spears would manage.
While lauding her as "very, very good judge" so far, he told the teleconference it was unclear "what she's going to be like on a live show" involving competition between judges over the contestants they are mentoring.
Spears, a pop princess who has struggled in her personal life, including spells in rehab, proved up to the task. She heaped praise on singers and remained calm when criticism was leveled at those she's guiding.
When Cowell told one teenager that "we need to sort your vocals out," Spears shot back, "I disagree. I think you're a true star."
It was Cowell himself who committed the biggest flub of the night: He was bleeped for using what appeared to be British slang found questionable by Fox.

The EW review is the only correct one.
She didn't sound sweet, she sounded dumb and like she didn't know what to say half the time. An example of a sweet judge would be Cheryl or even Nicole on X Factor UK - both of who also give good feedback and show personality on the panel.

This ^.
Also how can anyone take her vocal critiques serious?
Sure she may have had the 'x factor' when she was in her prime, but she should stick to judging dancing/performing and not even comment on LIVE VOCALS because she honestly has no right
You may argue Simon/LA can't sing, but they know how to spot a successful artist and have proved it in the past.
Poor Brit looked so out of place.

Actually, that is not from yesterday's episode, it's from the judges houses. "Sunglasses, she needs to control her loudness" were not yesterday.

Now I don't agree with this at all.
Are we forgetting that Paula judged on X Factor last year and on American Idol?
She's a worse singer than Britney and lip synced to a track full of autotune while she was judging on Idol. Cheryl is no better than Britney as a vocalist either so I'm not here for this argument.

ITV2 on Thursdays at 8:00PM and Fridays at 9:00PM. http://www.itv.com/itvplayer/video/?...=TheXFactorUSA
The episode aired last was the cut for the final 16. Hopefully someone in the U.S. can assist in working out the rest..

Spears was great. Khloe should just go back to whatever it is she does. She #$%$ me off when she kept demanding that Demi tell the world which girl she meant when she said one stood out. Demi didn't want to do it and Khloe wouldn't let up. She was annoying. Mario is great too
|
Quote:
Simon just showed us all how desperate he is for ratings by hiring a Kardashian, the Brittany Britney move was also a desperate grab at ratings but at least she has some credentials unlike Khloe who has zero, this show is a Train Wreck and will be off the air within two years!!

None of that family belongs the public eye. I never watch any reality shows but from the internet article i have to laud spears for the first time and likely the last.

Britney Spears did off Broadway at 12 and Mickey Mouse Club before her solo career at 15. Britney is a self made star who has been in the business for half her life. Khloe Kartrashian has done....NOTHING! I would not even know who Lamar Odom was if it was not for the Kartrashians TV show on E! 20 hours per day. Khloe is the most Annoying of the clan with her baby talk and fart joke humor. She is White TRASH! Simon should have hired Kendal Jenner, she is hot and has a chance.
|
Quote:
Khloe - Thumbs Down! Get her off the show! Hated it!
Simon and LA Reid - Thumbs Down! Tit for tat! Don't care for that!
Brittany Britney Spears - Thumbs up! Maybe this is the year she'll redeem herself!
The Voice - Double Thumbs up! The Voice is far superior than the X-Factor and probably upcoming of American Idol.

Britney is actually a pretty good jude and mentor. I love how she doesn't interrupt or ramble on and on like some judges on these shows. She's clear and straight to the point. She surprised me; she's very professional.

Mario was awesome, but Khloe not so good. She was messing up the words, and just not very natural. It would be better for Mario to be by himself. Also the talent is not very good this year. The song choices were horrible. I did think Britney did a good job.
|
The public calling her "Brittany" tho. I can't
The Khloe dragging is phenomenal

Everyone's dragging her.
Tbh, I didn't even notice how bad she was or pay attention to her that much. Mario outshined her big time.
