The Disney star – who is known for being kicked off the Jonas Brothers’ tour for punching a dancer, dabbling in drugs and combatting an eating disorder - and has revealed that she Brit Brit have become really close on the set of The X Factor USA, but she didn’t expect to bond with her.
She told People.com: "What surprised me the most about Britney is that she's actually really quirky. You kind of expect a legendary pop star [to] sometimes [be], like, a diva or something, but she's really not. She's a sweet, down-to-earth, Southern girl."
Hmm, we think that’s code for “wow, this pop princess actually has a hint of nuttiness like me!”
She also (well, basically) excused the showed for not being as drama-filled at American Idol, even though the latter series hasn’t even aired yet.
Blatantly referring to the Nicki Minaj Mariah Carey drama she said:"At the end of the day, it's about the contestants. It's not about us as judges. I think other shows maybe forget that the entire purpose of the competition is to find a superstar, not to get publicity for the wrong [reasons].
