Photos, videos and everything on the second day of the X Factor auditions in Kansas City!


The second and final day of recording the program X Factor in Kansas City took place as scheduled: Simon Cowell remained absent due to an attack of bronchitis (replaced by Louis Walsh since Thursday) and the jury used the same costume the day before - Britney Spears just added a little jacket bolero-type white, with the same pattern of her dress, signed by fashion designer Azzedine Alaïa.

Before even arriving at the arena, the singer's boyfriend, Jason Trawick, recorded over a video of Britney in the car and posted on your profile Viddy:


The arrival of the jurors was faster in the second day without the approval of fans and the press (which was expected because the program organizes a warmer reception in just the first day that performs recording on a new city). The administrator of the portal Britney.com, BRITannica, accompanied the arrival of Spears and even filmed the moment she entered the arena The Sprint Center. Watch:


See more videos of the recording and the scenes: Video 1, Video 2, Video 3, Video 4.

Funny and embarrassing moments marked the second day of recording, as a participant who has performed with the song Circus, Britney, and did not know the lyrics (Click here to watch). And L.A. Reid was involved in a controversy over Christina Aguilera - one of the participants said they wanted to be as famous as Christina, LA and told her something like, "Well, you know that Britney Spears is sitting here and she is more popular and well cooler than Christina, do you?" According to Britannica, the reaction of Britney during the statement was priceless! Have Aguilera fans did not like the comments and decided to speak on social networks on the declaration of LA by sending messages directly to the jury on Twitter.


During recording, a participant told Britney that she remembered very Amy Winehouse. Check out other phrases spoken by Spears in the second day: "Well, since we're in Kansas, I'd rather hear sing... Toto", she said, referring to the movie The Wizard of Oz. "I do not believe you're real, because his performance was incredible!"; "Your presentation was very nice, I just wanted to get on stage and dance with you!"; "You are my favorite so far... You are amazing, and I love you! Heck, my vote is yes!"

But not all presentations were well received by Britney. "I found your number too boring", she said to one participant. In another presentation, all the jurors got up and left the stage to show how bad it was.

As a participant sang My Heart Will Go On, Celine Dion, the public began to swing your arms from side to side, and Britney decided to follow too. Watch:


Between intervals, Spears greeted some fans who were close to his chair on stage, and also signed autographs for the lucky ones!

The next stop on the X Factor will be in San Francisco and Oakland, California. There will be three consecutive days of filming at The Oracle Arena, which begins on Saturday (16).

Photos, videos and everything on the first day of the X Factor auditions in Kansas City!


This Friday (8) saw the first stage of the X Factor auditions in Kansas City, Missouri. The public has formed huge queues around The Sprint Center Arena to watch the recordings.

The highlight was the replacement of Simon Cowell by Irishman Louis Walsh, a friend of Simon and current judge of Britain's Got Talent - Louis has also been judge of X Factor UK, at the time that Britney Spears has performed with Womanizer in 2008.

"I'm loving being here, and nobody seems to be feeling the lack of Simon", joked Lous Walsh via Twitter. According to the Daily Mail, Simon got sick (bronchitis) and can not be present. "I can not believe I'm saying this... but I miss Simon Cowell. Hope you get well soon!" Britney wrote on his Twitter profile.

Before you even leave the car, Spears recorded a message and posted the video on your profile Viddy. Watch the player below:


Friendly and smiling, on arriving at the arena the singer took a small stumbling block to get out of balance, but laughed at the situation - what is TMZ going to invent a story about the singer being "drunk" on arrival?  

Britney waved to fans and handed out some autographs. The dress worn by pop princess is the fashion designer Azzedine Alaïa, and the shoe is the brand Miu Miu - People magazine said that she got to choose the look and commented that Britney is more attuned to fashion, and who are eager to see what it uses the next recording of X Factor.

On the performance of Spears as a judge, fans reported that the singer was doing some funny jokes, very confident and focused.

Among the songs presented, Natural Woman of the Aretha Franklin, the performance was more thrilled. A participant of 43 years who did the cover (watch) was a standing ovation by the audience and the jury: "I feel like my soul was vibrating while you sing, you made everyone here feel alive. Find people like you are the reason I'm here", said Britney. (You Drive Me) Crazy was sung by another participant, but does not seem to have pleased Spears. "You're lovely, but was out of tune", Britney said to a candidate. "His voice is strong! You need to open up more, like 'Aaaaah'", recommended.

In the second section the singer seems to have disapproved of several candidates and let out a few phrases like "I can not take you seriously as a rapper", said a young man who sang hiphop. "It was a bit ... boring", and asked for Demi Lovato leaving the fence as the assessment of the participant. "I found his performance a bit boring, a bit predictable... You definitely do not have the 'X Factor'!" He said to another person.

One participant sang Ain't No Other Man, Christina Aguilera music (watch), and Spears said: "You have the whole package - look, charisma and voice. You're incredible."

Britney has also prepared a surprise for one of the judges table. Early in the second set of recordings, the singer went to a birthday cake and sang happy birthday to L.A. Reid - he completes 56 years today.


Jason Trawick has posted some videos soon when Spears arrived at the Sprint Center arena. Watch videos on the profile boyfriend Spears:

Photos, videos and everything on the first day of hearings of the program X Factor!

On Thursday (24), Britney Spears was greeted warmly by an audience of about four thousand people in the arena Frank Erwin Center in Austin, Texas, for his debut in the program X Factor.


Just when she arrived in a special entry in the arena, more than 100 fans have waited for the singer, who said a friendly "Hello" to everyone and even signed autographs while walking.

After posing for some photos before the press, Spears went backstage and stood waiting for the other jurors, and then come together on stage.

The first recording of the hearing began at around 13h (local time), and by the opening video of the program it was possible to see how Britney is being displayed prominently in this new season. His part in the video was shown at the end and has patches of different video clips of his career, hit a small patch of the Oops!... I Did it Again, and editing is in the best style "end times", which is already part of X Factor.


Quiet and friendly, Britney analyzed the performance of about eight participants and gave a favorable vote for the most. Then she paused for a moment we have not discussed the program, and temporarily abandoned recording. His attitude quickly turned into a drama on the Internet, which was cause for some sites raise suspicions of a possible "collapse" of the singer.


Having fun with the rumor, Britney herself explained what happened via Twitter, saying it made only a brief interval and that was having a great time recording, thus ruling out any misunderstandings.

During recording, some were captured by audio fans, and it was possible to hear the singer tell participants phrases like, "You can be the new Justin Bieber", "I love your hat", "You have a strong voice and deep", "Sounds like you need to rehearse more", and reports indicate that even tougher sentences like, "I think you need a new teacher to teach you to sing".

Hear them in the player below:


Several tags related to Britney became some of the world's most talked about topics on Twitter, and most famously, "I pass", the singer released shortly after attending a disastrous performance at the hearing and became a laughingstock in the network. Listen on the player below:


The X Factor has released the entry of cameras and mobile phones in the recording, which had previously been prohibited, but reinforced the claim that people did not disclose the results of hearings on who will be or not to the next step, therefore, our summaries will not bring material this kind, even to the program do not miss your goal before going to air.

About positioning on stage, Britney took the chair that was Paula Abdul, which lies next to Simon Cowell. Demi Lovato got the chair, Nicole Scherzinger, who comes shortly after Britney and before LA Reid - men are always at the ends!

According to E! Online, around 7000 people signed up to attend the hearings, and only 200 of them went to the stage of hearing with the jury. The recordings in a city divided into four stages, filmed in two days, twice a day - three hours each round.

The result was very positive for Britney - every word of the singer, the audience screamed and applauded, because they are usually phrases funny or cuddly. At one point, she even speak too well of one of the participants did not please the public, and was booed by them. LA Reid at once joked that no one can booing Britney Spears!

More articulate, comfortable and noticeably quiet, Britney attended the two-step recording, dancing with Demi Lovato on the board of judges to the sound of hip hop, and made his criticism in an objective manner, with sincerity and sense of humor. With that, she certainly exceeded the expectation of much of the international press.

Below watch two videos of Britney being announced in the arena The Erwin Center:

Official: Glee will second tribute to Britney for season 4!


Fox is investing heavily in Britney Spears. Besides hiring the singer to be a judge of X Factor, the channel is preparing a new tax on Glee!

In an interview with blog Vulture, the magazine New York Magazine, series creator Glee, Ryan Murphy, officiated the rumor about a second tribute to Britney Spears, saying the episode is a tribute to the singer.

"I'm in love with Britney... We will do a great tribute soon (in September or October), a new episode will be dedicated to Britney Spears."

Ryan also talked about Britney's X Factor judge to be, that from this year will be displayed before Glee. "I love Britney. I think she will bring many viewers to the program, and the flow between a musical program and a music series will be great. That's what I always wanted. I was begging for this for about two years. I really wanted the series to be displayed after the American Idol or X Factor, because when I'm watching Idol, for example, and I'm a fun vibe of pop culture young man who passes in the program, I do not want to watch a drama heavy then", said Ryan. "Now, on Thursday night will be a celebration of pop culture on FOX. I also loved that Glee will be sent to 21h, because then we can get back to producing a screenplay more mature."

The actress Lea Michele, Rachel, who sang ...Baby One More Time in the first tribute, said last week: "Britney is one of the largest, if not the biggest, star and pop icon in the world. And I bet and it will add a lot in a program like X Factor."

Glee back in the Fall Season of TV, which is between the months of September and October.
