I'm surprised that literally no one cares in here that she's back for more X-Factor Demi Lovato To Return As ‘X-Factor’ Judge For Season 3Well we know who one of the judges on X-Factor is going to be next season. Fox announced today that Demi Lovato would be returning to the panel for Season 3 in the fall. “I couldn’t be happier that Demi wants to come back this year. She’s a superstar in her own right and was a fantastic mentor last year. Even though she can be really, really annoying – I truly enjoyed working with her and so did the artists. I’m especially pleased she’s back even during her world tour!”, said fellow judge and X-Factor creator Simon Cowell in a statement Thursday. Along with Britney Spears, Lovato was a new addition to the competition series last season. After just one season Spears exited the X-Factor officially in January. Veteran judge LA Reid said last year that he was out too. That leaves Cowell as the only remaining judge from the show’s first season. No replacement has been announced yet for either of them. Despite the bounce expected from the addition of Spears and Lovato to the judges’ panel for Season 2, X-Factor found itself battered in the ratings. The Season 2 finale on December 20, 2012 was down nearly 20% from the Season 1 ender on December 22, 2011. SourceI think she should've moved on, but alas...

I'm surprised she's going to be returning, but also happy to see it because it gives her a lot of opportunity to promote her material.

I'm not at all surprised. It's a great platform to use for both continued exposure as well as promotion, and she's still in that "up and coming" phase where getting established as an artist is pretty crucial. It might be a sinking ship, but as long as she's not the one sinking it, X-Factor gives her credibility. Plus, she gets paid to do it, so why not?
I think it was a good move.

Happy to see her returning on X-Factor (the worst show ever!), but did Simon really need to call her "annoying" in his press release? I mean, I know he needs to keep his douchebag reputation going, but seriously, his show is paying her millions, but she's annoying. Whatever Simon!

I've got four pieces of that now. How frequently are new parts of the cover becoming available?

I know, right? I was expecting it to end up being White Out, but if it really is just Demi I guess it makes sense, as I think they'll try to make this album her true breakthrough era.

I personally love White Out as an album title. It could signify/symbolize so many positive things (being fully exposed and open; wiping a slate clean; rebirth, etc.)

Not too crazy about the album title, but whatever. The cover is fantastic, the first single is fantastic, the first single is becoming a hit, all is well.

Cher Lloyd?? I have a love/hate relationship with the cover. On one hand I think it was a great idea but on the other I don't think it fully works. She kind of looks like man there. Given how attractive Demi is, I was hoping for a better picture. I have a feeling it will look better once it's in a CD case. I do like the title Demi though. She's becoming a true diva. :'(

Like they really couldn't cover those freckles?

I love her freckles. She covers them and has the shopped out too much.

I love love love that cover. She is going to slay this era.
What I'm most excited for, though, is the lack of features on this album. I hope it brings back some of her sound from Here We Go Again and combines it with the bright spots on Unbroken. And I'm kind of excited for that Cher Lloyd feature. As long as the song is listenable and Cher's addition makes some sense, it'll beat any other feature she's ever done.

I feel like she's the next big popstar. She has ambition, great voice and is a role model. I agree that she's by far the most talented of the Disney girls but I think that she'll soon get rid off that Disney label if she proves herself with this album.

Gorgeous cover, lame title. "White Out" would've been a cool title for this, actually.
