Demi Lovato and Britney Spears have begun work on The X Factor USA, as the filmed auditions get underway in Texas.
Britney’s already had to deny a rumour that she stormed off half-way through the first day, whilst Demi has called Simon “grandpa” and cut LA Reid “to shreds”. Amazing.
There was a slightly awkward moment outside (picture, left) when Britney signed a Rolling Stone magazine front cover with the headline ‘The Tragedy of Britney Spears’ (it was published mid-breakdown in 2007), but other than that it seems everything went swimmingly.
Check out this video of the judges making their arrivals at the venue, and then making their entrance to sit behind one of TV’s most famous desks.
Oh, and here in the UK apparently Geri Haliwell got booed.
