Simon Cowell, who will soon be welcoming Britney Spears on X Factor for a special performance wasn’t his usual heavily critical self when he spoke about Britney recently. According to the official Britney Spears website, Simon was actually quite enthused about the upcoming event:
News of the World is reporting that X Factor judge Simon Cowell has nothing but nice things to say about Brit in the wake of her X Factor performance this month. The article reports the always candid Simon as saying: “I’m really excited about it, because she’s got her act together now and the new record’s terrific. She’s come back from a very dark place and is a great artist”.
I’m so used to hearing Simon tear contestants a new one when they perform on American Idol that it’s always a pleasant surprise when I hear him say something really positive.
And of course (as usual, I must admit), Simon’s completely right. Britney was in a bad place not so long ago, but in an amazingly short amount of time she’s come back so far and is doing so well that she will just keep going up and up.
In other news, there are pictures up at Britney’s site where you can see that she outfited up as a very cute witch for Halloween this year while spending some festive fun time with her sons – both of whom looked incredibly adorable.
