Simon Cowell says Britney wanted to quit the X Factor on the first day!

Shortly after the program The Voice announced a extra episode to be shown on the same day and time of the great debut of X Factor, Simon Cowell gave an interview to TMZ saying he was disgusted with the attitude of producers.

"This is a cynical way, cold, and unprofessional to do business", said Simon. "I thought we had a 'gentlemen's agreement'. These guys really hold grudges us. This is nothing less than a dirty trick. The reason for this is because they do not want people to watch the X Factor, because they are already aware of how good the show is. They do not want your audience to see Britney Spears or Demi Lovato. I think Britney is not yet know, but it certainly will be upset because she put her heart and soul this season. I can not believe that NBC is doing and playing political games with the audience, forcing people to choose between one program or the other, while the two could watch."

And the controversy did not stop there. A new excerpt from the interview Britney for ELLE magazine was released on the net, and she admits she freaked out at the auditions of the X Factor.

"I was extremely nervous. I was having a panic attack after another", said Spears. When the auditions of X Factor started, several rumors that the singer had abandoned recording early in the shooting circulated throughout the media, but his team denied the information saying she just made breaks to go to the bathroom. Now, Simon Cowell admitted that the situation actually happened and that Britney even considered canceling his contract with the program.
 
"Nobody will admit that the first day its highest paid star leaving the set, about 20 minutes after the start of the recordings", said Simon to TMZ on Thursday (6). "Britney really had a moment of desperation on the first day, when she said something like 'I'm not sure if I can do this'.""The first day, I have no doubt that she was not sure he could be a juror. We were in the Roman Colosseum - five thousand people boo you when you say 'no' to a candidate", he added.

According to Simon, he spoke with Britney and she managed to handle the situation. Today, not only is she loving being a juror, but also became a sworn super tough. "Now I'm seeing this woman unfold week after week, as a juror. I think she will be very good for the program, and I also think that the program will be very good for her", he concluded.

Mark Burnett, creator of The Voice, was approached by TMZ to comment on the change of plans for its program, and said he did not know that your program will compete with X Factor next week. Simon says he's only doing dumb.
